“Excellent Lawyer. Incredible legal mind with the ability to think outside the box and create solutions. Knows how to impose his ideas and tactics to a case to influence beneficial outcomes. Always appears to be at least two (2) steps ahead of his opposition in his planning and tactics. A superb trial attorney that thinks on his feet.”
“I have worked with Eric Bayat as Co-counsel and observed him first hand. Eric portrays all the characteristics of a great lawyer; analytical ability, research, speaking, and listening skills. Eric has an incredible ability to map out a case from beginning to end upon taking a case. Eric always fights for all his clients and has amazing outcomes to his cases. Eric is an skilled trial lawyer that projects confidence in the courtroom. His knowledge of the law and understanding on how to apply the law is on another level.”
