Attorney Eric J. Burch

After working for several years as an associate and partner in another Manchester law office, Mr. Burch knew he wanted to try his hand as a sole practitioner. When Mr. Burch founded his own law firm in 2003, he did so with only card tables in a single room. Today, his business is one of the busiest law offices in Tennessee, and his strong customer service orientation is a dream he continues to fulfill.
