Eric’s commitment to excellence and drive to win legal cases has been partially shaped by his background as a college basketball star.  Recruited right out of his California high school by nationally ranked Western Washington University, Eric was Western’s basketball team leader and top defensive player.  He played basketball aggressively until he graduated with honors from Western’s College of Business and Economics.  The basketball program subsequently named the student-athlete award in his honor.
Eric’s belief in upholding individual legal rights led him to Gonzaga University School of Law, where he graduated magna cum laude.  His immediate aptitude for criminal defense law led him to stand out at law school, where he excelled academically, graduating at the top of his class.  
He was recruited right out of law school by a small criminal defense firm in Seattle.  After evaluating the landscape of the criminal defense firms in the greater Puget Sound area, he felt obligated to open his own criminal defense firm where he could give his clients the proper attention and exceptional service for an affordable price.
For over fifteen years, Schurman Law has successfully defended thousands of good people who found themselves in bad situations.  His results speak for themselves; an overwhelming majority of his cases have resulted in dismissals, acquittals, reduced charges, and significantly reduced jail time and fines.
As a community service, Eric volunteered as a basketball coach at Bellevue Community College and coached youth athletic programs, as well as volunteered his time at a community non-profit organization.
When Eric isn’t practicing law, you might see him running with his dog Nigel.
