Eric Beutel is a son, husband and father of three. He grew up in the northern suburbs of Cincinnati, Ohio. Guided by his parents’ wisdom, empathy, love, Eric grew to become a man who loves God, his family, and his country.
A product of local public schools, Eric studied Quantitative Analysis and Marketing at the University of Cincinnati. After earning his Bachelor of Business Administration degree, he began a career in business taking on various roles, from database manager and programmer to business manager and financial analyst. While working, Eric earned an MBA from the University of Cincinnati.
Finally, after establishing a career in business management and corporate finance, Eric embarked on his aspiration of becoming a lawyer. He attended law school at night while continuing his demanding full-time job as a senior member of the controllership team at GE Aviation. Eric graduated from Northern Kentucky University’s Salmon P. Chase College of Law.
While in law school, Eric, his wife Kimberly, and their two children were fortunate enough to adopt a four-year-old boy from foster care. During the same time period, Eric’s father-in-law passed away suddenly from an aggressive cancer. These life-changing events led Eric to take stock and imagine who would take care of his family and their needs if something happens to him. These events led Eric to choose the practice of Estate Planning. He is committed to making sure the estate plans he assists families in making will keep up with all of life’s little changes (and the big ones too!).
Eric focuses his practice on Estate Planning, Trusts, Elder Law, and Probate and serves the Northern Kentucky area.
