Hands down one of the best lawyers. Hackwelder did everything that he said he would do to get me where I am at now. I was facing some heavy charges. He was always there when I had any kind of concern. Always knew how to calm me in my not too sure state of mind. It was a long 2 years going through the process but with Hackwelder by my side made it so much easier. For anyone looking for a lawyer definitely hands down recommend Hackwelder you won't be disappointed

Attorney Hackwelder had me do all the legwork for my hearing. Then at the hearing told me to just accept the charges. When I refused he negotiated with the other attorney and said he got my punishment decreased. When I received the actual punishment, it was nothing like he told me and what I agreed to. He wouldn’t help me fix his mistake and dodged my calls from that point forward. He has no ethics whatsoever. Avoid him at all costs.

I hired attorney Hackwelder for a child custody case. It was an ongoing battle for 3 years and Eric stood in my corner from day one. He was attentive, detailed, and so patient with all of my questions. He always got back to me in a timely manner, always fought for what I wanted, and never settled for less. He never gave up on me or my kids despite all the struggles, complications, and tears I brought to the plate along with my case. Attorney Hackwelder is in my eyes the sole reason I won custody. Despite everything I did correct and how hard I worked, Attorney Hackwelder is the reason I have custody of my son. I could not have done it without him and I would highly recommend this firm to anyone needing an amazing attorney who will fight for you.

My son was facing very serious life changing felony charges. We were recommended by a good friend to Atty. Hackwelder and Atty.Sebald . They worked tirelessly for over a year to get well over a 100 charges against my son dropped down to a 1 charge against him, resulting in probation. Atty. Sebald and Atty. Hackwelder were always there for us , We had contact available to us 7 days a week. They are very caring and compassionate about their job. Our family is forever greatful for how they handled my son's situation. Atty. Sebald and Atty. Hackwelder are highly recommended by my family. Thank you again Atty. Sebald and Atty. Hackwelder

Mr. Hackwelder and Mr. Sebald both worked very diligently to a resolution of a very serious case. My son was accused of a crime that would have cost him his freedom and caused irreparable harm to his reputation and his family unit. A conviction would have led to certain alienation of his rights as a father. My son, a provider and a family man was accused by a third party with an obvious agenda. Both Hackwelder and Sebald did exactly as the indicated at our first meeting. They said that this case would end up dismissed and it was. They were able to successfully demonstrate to the district attorney that there was no way that this case would be successfully prosecuted because of the lack of evidence, improper conduct and the overt agenda of the accusing party. I would not hesitate to ask Eric Hackwelder or Stephen Sebald to represent my loved ones again and you definitely shouldn't look any further.

I hired Eric for someone who was facing serious felony charges. He is fairly young man with a young child who he absolutely adores. He had made mistakes and I didn't feel he needed to go to jail and be separated from that child. Eric was extremely helpful and actually you could tell that he took this case personally because of all of the time and effort he put into the case. He was always available to us and his family. When it came time for the sentencing we all thought he was going to jail. When the judge sentenced him to 3 years parole we were all extremely happy. I can not say enough good things to say about Eric.

I have many good things to say about Mr. Hackwelder and his team. From the beginning he came to our aid last minute and were good at keeping open lines of communication with me and my family. They worked on our case up to the last possible moment and even met with me on weekends. He answered all my questions throughout the whole process, was polite and did not waste time. The case was an extremely hard one, and the legal system was a bear to work with, but Mr. Hackwelder showed up every time with lots of energy and a positive attitude. He never promised what could not be done, but our results were extremely positive, in part to his hard work and constant attention to important details. I highly recommend him and his team. Mr. Hackwelder, I believe, went above and beyond the call of duty in our unique circumstance.

I would highly recommend Attorney Hackwelder. My case was different than most but he went out of his way to do his research to make sure things went my way. He won the case for me and if I ever need another attorney I will call him again.

I was extremely happy how Attorney Hackwelder and Attorney Sebald handled my situation. I would definitely highly recommend. Very easy to schedule an appointment, pleasantly greeted. I knew when I left my first appointment that these guys are knowledgeable and exactly what we were looking for.

Eric has helped us numerous times. He has been there for us when ever we call and made himself available in a moments notice, when necessary. He knows just what to do and is also great at dealing with the emotional side of the situation. We trust him completely and would highly recommend Eric.
