CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

Here is a sampling of what our past clients have to say.  In order to preserve confidentiality, only their first names and location is listed.

I was pulled over by a police officer who thought I committed a traffic violation.  The stop led to the officer charging me with a more serious crime and when I went to court I found out I was facing up to two years in jail.  Attorney Erik Bair took on my case and successfully challenged the traffic stop and resulting charges as unconstitutional.  The charges were dropped and my constitutional rights were protected.  I would recommend attorney Erik Bair for anyone accused of committing a crime. 

Jason, Newton, Iowa

Attorney Erik Bair handled my criminal charges in a very efficient and effective manner. I was wrongfully accused of committing a serious crime. Erik explained the charges to me, what the State had to prove and our chances of being successful at trial. Erik investigated the facts, researched the law and convinced the prosecutor to dismiss the charges. I appreciate the hard work Erik put into my case and he helped make a very stressful situation much easier for me. I would recommend him for anyone accused of committing a crime.

Trent, Des Moines, Iowa

Attorney Erik D. Bair handled my divorce in a very efficient and effective manner. Divorce is a difficult thing to go through and Erik made me feel comfortable throughout the process. Erik spent time going through all the issues with me so that I would understand what the best options would be and how best to settle the case. I appreciated his honesty and straightforward approach to what was an emotional situation for me. I would recommend him for anyone going through a divorce.

Karen, Des Moines, Iowa

My daughter sustained serious injury when she was left unsupervised in a classroom swing by a member of the school staff who was not paying attention. We trusted attorney Erik Bair to handle our case against the school district. Attorney Erik Bair took the time to thoroughly prepare the case for trial and obtain the medical opinions we needed to succeed in our case. As a result of his professionalism and preparation we were able to obtain a settlement of $50,000. I would recommend that others use his services as well.
