Overview Cases & record Support

Associate attorney, Scahill Law Group · Admitted to the New York bar in 2011

Selected cases & rulings

He is registered with the New York bar as Eric Charles Flores. The start dates of his service as a Small Claims Arbitrator and as vice president of the Small Claims Arbitrators Association, and the dates of his work for a plaintiff's medical malpractice law firm, were not found; his law firm biography does not name that firm. No rating of him from a bar association was found as of Oct. 1, 2026. None of the sources found shows him holding judicial office, so no court decisions or judicial conduct record are listed.
