Over the course of his career, Eric has served as lead counsel in more than thirty jury trials and argued multiple appeals before the Second Circuit. Before entering private practice, Eric spent 16 years as a federal prosecutor and trial lawyer, including eight years as an Assistant United States Attorney in the Southern District of New York (SDNY).
