And lastly, as one would suspect, Eric fails to mention the misconduct set forth above on his self-serving website at www.ericlevine-law.com. Apparently, Eric decided it was in his best financial interest to conceal this relevant information from prospective clients so that he would not limit his future victim pool.

As we speak (ca. June 2020) Eric practices at 301 South McDowell Street in Charlotte, North Carolina.
