I contacted Eric Gilman on August 4th, 2022 regarding a time-sensitive employment law matter, then spoke to him on the phone during the next week regarding some of the details and he requested that I send him all the relevant documentation in a PDF file. That was completed by 8/14/22. Although I requested a reply that he had received the material, I then waited in vain for an email or call and heard nothing after leaving several voicemails. Finally I tried sending another email on 8/30/22, requesting an update and he immediately replied with a "notice of non-representation," saying that neither he nor any of his partners would be able to represent me and reminding me I may have a time limitation to file. Yeah, I was aware of that and he just wasted almost a month of that time, stringing me along and then not responding to my document email or followup phone calls! I do not recommend his or his firm's services.

I engaged Eric Gilman to represent me in a complex construction litigation case. The basis for the case was a faulty construction product that created damages to my property. There were four parties involved in the defense side: the manufacturer, the distributor, the installer and the inspector who approved the installation process at each step. None of the parties accepted responsibility and we were forced to go pretty far into litigation. The case was settled just weeks before trial after a successful mediation. I have been involved in several complex litigation cases over the past 30 years and very few attorneys took a personal interest in knowing the details of the case as well as I knew them. Eric understood the case far better than the defendants’ counsel which led to several good outcomes during the litigation. I have since stayed in touch with Eric and recommended him to several business owners and I will use him again if faced with similar litigation events.

I contacted Beck, Chase & Gilman during a very rough time. I was lost, confused and under doctor’s care. I lost my job, my career! If you are reading this, most likely that is what is happening to you. You have come to the right place. Eric Gilman walked me through what needed to be done. The patience and understanding was what I needed and he provided. The communication was above par. The staff was wonderful and operated with the same set of objectives and professionalism. Desiree was great! Honesty is foremost; on both sides. You will learn what is actionable, what is not and then whether or not you really have a case. I decided to settle. Mr. Gilman has great negotiating skills and I am more than pleased with the results. So, ultimately, I cannot refer Beck, Chase & Gilman enough. I would use this firm for a lifetime!

Eric took over this case on short notice and reviewed many documents and offered suggestions and advice that was timely and brief. He did not waste his time or ours. He is personable, professional, courteous and efficient. In court he guided us well with concise suggestions. He treated everyone involved with respect and consideration. He is a pleasure to know and we felt very well represented. Thank you

Eric did a fantastic job guiding us through our recent litigation.. His focus was always on the was on the facts of the case and the applicable law. He was thorough, although determined to minimize the time and money spent on litigation. Eric had an immediate grasp on the complexity of the case and had a clear path for resolution. I was impressed with Eric's organization and technology skills, making our case a seamless presentation. As a first time defendant he did an excellent job informing me of the legal process and likely timelines. I can gladly say that our case was dismissed... which was due, in large part, to Eric's thoughtful and vigorous defense of our case. Thanks gain Eric for all your hard work and late nights!

Eric was brought in, with barely a week's notice, to a complex, multi-layered, unpredictable situation involving four separate legal actions with overlapping personal and business interests, less than a week before Christmas! His rapid grasp of every nuanced aspect of the legal issues and contextual dynamics not only gave us peace of mind following every meeting we had with him before court, it also ensured the best possible outcome for all parties (especially us!). He operated with a respect and integrity in court that matched our values, while maintaining a clear, firm stand for our legal position. We could not have asked for anything more and so appreciate his obvious commitment our case.
