He then earned a Doctor of Jurisprudence from St. Mary’s University School of Law in 2013. He is admitted to practice in Texas and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas and is an active member of the Tarrant County Trial Lawyers Association and Dallas Trial Lawyers Association.

Since graduating from law school Eddie has devoted his career to representing injured clients throughout Texas. Prior to joining the Witherite Law Group, Eddie practiced personal injury law with other notable and well-respected law firms in DFW where his successes include netting millions of dollars for injured victims and their families. At WLG he focuses his practice on commercial trucking litigation. His compassion, advocacy skills and zealous commitment to both his clients and the legal profession have led him to be recognized by Texas Super Lawyers as a Rising Star and National Trial Lawyers Association’s Top 40 under 40.
