About Eric David
Eric David Puryear works across Illinois and Iowa courts. He built his legal foundation at DePaul University, earning a B.S. in 2006, and continued at DePaul College of Law, where he received his J.D. in 2009. Those years in Chicago shaped his entry into practice and his early professional network.
He launched his own firm in 2010. Records list him as Lawyer at Law in 2010 at Puryear Law P.C., and he has maintained practice ties in the region since then. He has been active in professional bar groups almost from the start of his career. His American Bar Association membership dates to 2009, and he joined the Illinois State Bar Association the same year. Since 2010 he has held memberships in the National Bar Association, the Iowa State Bar Association, and the Rock Island County Bar Association. These memberships reflect a sustained engagement with both local and national legal communities.
Puryear is licensed to practice in multiple state and federal jurisdictions. He is admitted in Illinois and Iowa. He is also authorized to appear in several federal district courts: the Central, Northern and Southern Districts of Illinois, and the Northern and Southern Districts of Iowa. That range allows him to handle matters that cross state lines and those that stay within a single district court.
Clients and colleagues describe him as a steady presence in court calendars and bar events. He has spent much of his career managing case loads that require appearances in state and federal venues. He combines the courtroom work that comes with federal admissions and the local practice tied to county and state bar associations. His background in Chicago legal education and subsequent practice in the Midwest inform his approach to litigation and case management.
Today he continues to practice under the Puryear Law P.C. name. He remains active in bar associations and authorized in multiple federal district courts. His current practice focuses on representing clients in matters that arise in Illinois and Iowa state and federal courts.
