Over the course of 20 years, Eric has tried cases to juries in five states, including:

  • Violations of the Uniform Trade Secrets Act
  • Claims brought under Federal and State anti-discrimination statutes 
  • Breach of Operating Agreements 
  • Breach of Employment Agreements 
  • Breach of fiduciary duties

Regularly leading a team that handles all of the employment discrimination allegations brought against a large healthcare institution, which employs more than 7,000 employees, Eric has defended the institution in multiple Charges of Discrimination before the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and a state Human Rights Commission for the last 5 years. To date, none of those Charges has resulted in a “Cause” Determination. He also works with information and security, food and ingredient manufacturing, and financial services cases.
