Incredibly thankful

I would like to first give thanks to Eric Kinsman for all he has done for me. I got a criminal mischief charge and was facing a year in jail, this is because I have a past that didn’t look good on me. The prosecutor was determined to get me jail time which gave me high stress, it’s been a long 6 months. What Eric did behind the scenes was incredible not only did he keep me informed on everything the whole time dealing with this case, he also managed to talk the prosecutor into giving me good behavior for a year. I didn’t think there was a chance in the world to make this happen but with the great knowledge he carries he seen things most would have not in this case. He was determined to keep me out of jail and off papers. I’m incredibly thankful to have chosen him as my attorney in this case.

Eternally grateful to Eric Kinsman and his staff

Eric Kinsman is a kind, professional, and compassionate lawyer who saved our lives when we were falsely accused. We were terrified, confused, and stunned by the situation and he gave us guidance and help in the most stressful moment in our lives. He knows how to break down the game plan in easy to understand language so you know what is going to happen and you don’t feel disconnected or unsure of what is happening. He is very talented and knowledgeable and knows how to work with the prosecutor and really help his clients through the whole process. You’re not a number in Eric’s office – you’re a person and his staff treats you that way too. I will be eternally grateful to Eric Kinsman and his staff and their kindness and compassion.

Honest and professional

I was charged with an OWI in Elkhart County and Eric was my first call. He was very helpful and personable throughout the entire process. I certainly appreciated his honesty and professionalism. Eric is definitely well experienced in handling these matters. Thanks to his help and guidance, we were able to have all of our necessary steps done before going to court that helped to retain driving privileges. The judge even remarked at how well the case had been managed during the hearing. With Eric’s help, I was able to obtain specialized driving privileges very promptly. I am still able to tend to my life’s responsibilities and my work. I would highly recommend Eric to anyone else needing help with OWI/DUI charges.
