Divorce remains one of the most painful and difficult legal processes that a family can endure, because it represents the shattering of a union that once seemed promising. Divorce is not simply a legal process, however, as it often triggers issues of self-worth, compatibility and compromise from which some people emerge stronger, but which for others, leads to years of anger and resentment.

I hired Eric earlier in the year as my attorney to handle a custody/travel issue. He took care of things so quickly, I luckily didn't have to cancel travel plans that had been made months in advance. He was easily accessible, answered all of my questions, and his retainer/fee was reasonable. His office even gave me his personal cell # to call or text if I had anything urgent come up outside of office hours. Would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer, 10/10!

I spent over $20,000 with Mr. Cheshire on a re-modification of my parenting plan. Hardly anything changed when it was all said and done. It was just constant nickel and dime from Eric’s people. It was the first day of school yesterday and my sons mother refused to drive him to school. This was my concern when I first went to Mr. Cheshire and sure enough it has come to fruition. My sons mother talked down to him though emails. When I first read them I thought why would she be poking the bear? It didn’t matter, it didn’t make him fight any harder. The only thing he did assure us was that COVID

Mr. Cheshire came highly recommended by a friend of mine and was the first person I thought of when I found myself in need of a lawyer. He explained all of my options to me plainly and even let me make payment installments. I hired him after our first consultation and after all was said & done, got the best outcome I could've hoped for! Will definitely be returning to him if I ever need an attorney again.

It finally came to an end!!!
After having gone through a terrible divorce and not having my rights as both a parent and father protected, Eric Cheshire was there to inspire me not to lose faith. Eric was careful in how he proceeded with my case and was sensitive to the needs of the family holistically. He followed the facts of the case and was not motivated by lies and or emotions. Eric was extremely professional and I would recommend his firm without question. He has renewed my faith in the legal system and more specifically my faith in knowing that the rights of each parent should be honored
