About Eric
Eric Jeide built a career that moves between in-house counsel roles and law firm practice. He has worked across corporate legal departments, insurance defense, and private practice. The pattern shows steady progression and an interest in running a practice of his own.
His recorded career begins in 2014 when he served as vice president of legal affairs at Inter123 Corporation. That role placed him in a corporate setting where legal work intersects with business decisions. In 2017 he shifted to GEICO Staff Counsel, joining a large national insurer’s legal team where the pace and volume of matters differ from corporate general counsel work.
By 2020 Jeide entered private practice as an associate at Bighorn Law, also listed as Big Chad Law. That move brought him back into the firm environment and into the day-to-day management of client matters. Two years later he launched his own firm, High Country Law PLLC. Founding a firm marked a change in responsibilities. He went from being part of a larger organization to overseeing a practice, staffing choices, and client intake.
Colleagues describe him as pragmatic and direct. He tends to favor practical solutions over theoretical ones, according to those who have worked alongside him. His mixture of in-house and outside counsel roles has given him familiarity with different legal workflows and client expectations. He has experience handling matters that require coordination with nonlawyer executives and adjusting to the different rhythms of corporate and insurance environments.
Jeide is licensed to practice in Arizona. Public listings show him working out of High Country Law PLLC. Beyond his job titles, he has kept a steady presence in the local legal community and maintains professional memberships.
The move to run his own firm reflects a shift in emphasis. He now manages client relationships, supervises case strategy, and directs the administrative side of a small practice. That combination of courtroom-adjacent experience and corporate legal work shapes the way he approaches cases and client counseling.
He continues to work from High Country Law PLLC in Arizona, handling legal matters arising in the state and advising clients on issues tied to his prior corporate and insurance work. His current practice focuses on serving clients in Arizona through his firm, High Country Law PLLC.
