Eric helped me achieve my goals with a traffic citation. He brings experience and empathy to the case and reduced significant stress on my behalf. Eric went above and beyond to convince the officer who cited me to reduce my charge even when the officer was giving him a lot of pushback. I wholeheartedly recommend attorney Eric Mikovch for your legal needs!

Attorney Mikovch went above and beyond in defending me on my PFA case. My soon to be ex was lying about what occurred on our property, and Eric proved to the Judge she was lying. I can't thank him enough. Great lawyer! Great result! He is absolutely tremendous in the courtroom!

I highly recommend calling Attorney Eric J. Mikovch should you find yourself in a situation where you need a defense attorney. I initially called his secretary for an appointment, and he called me back in under 30 minutes and asked me questions to obtain all the information he needed. He recognized how upset I was and offered to meet with me during my lunch time that day. I had intense fear and anxiety, and he reassured me that everything would be ok. I hired him on the spot to represent me and, he won my case for me. Between the time of initial contact to the end of my trial date, he stayed in contact with me via phone and text, replying back to me immediately with answers to my questions. He is professional and attentive, but also very compassionate and friendly. I can't image dealing with my problem without him. My outcome was the best possible. I trust him and recommend him and the Quinn Law Firm with any legal matter.

I came to Eric with a very difficult case that I knew was going to be a challenge one I had a very slim chance of winning. I knew I was not guilty and was not ready to lay down and give up, I just needed someone to listen to my story. Needless to say Eric sat down with me and with no hesitation at all he took my case. After countless meeting and going over every detail of the case I was feeling more and more confident about going to trial. Eric worked many off hours to accommodate my work schedule. Eric kept in contact and was very easy to work with. I wouldn’t have any other attorney in my corner. When we got to trial I could tell Eric had went through every report, every video, every statement to the point he knew what someone was going to say before they said it. Needless to say we won my case my family was very pleased as was I. Eric took the time to get to know me and my family he gained our full trust. I highly recommend Eric he will give you 110%.

The amount of work, commitment, time, and attention to detail that Atty. Mikovch put into this case was beyond my expectations. When someone is falsely accused it effects so many lives - but the victim's future was in jeopardy. He worked through every detail to prove innocence. To say we are grateful for his representation is an understatement. We could not have made a better choice.

Eric and his office were very professional and caring, great communication and was very quick with response time with questions and follow up via phone/email conversations. I did not feel like some “Take a #” or case # like other lawyers and offices out there. Just be honest with him and he will take care of you. I would hire Eric again and recommend to family friends.

Attorney Mikovch went above and beyond to defend my special needs brother who was accused of a crime he didn't commit. He poured over every detail of this rush to judgment, put together a top-notch investigative team, worked tirelessly, all hours of the night because he knew the stakes were incredibly high, and most important, he took time to understand the nuances of how my special needs brother communicates. This built trust between them, which is not always easy. You can trust Eric Mikovch.

This man is a genius. He was able to negotiate my charges down from 4 to 1 and from possible 14 years in jail to 4 years probation. I recommend Mr. Mikovch to anyone I can.
