The Decatur area's only law practice concentrated almost entirely in divorce and family cases.

       Jon Erickson, known formally as Jonathan Parker Erickson, is a Decatur native and attended Decatur public schools through 12th grade.  He graduated from Eisenhower High School in 1991 and completed his undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice Sciences at Illinois State University in 1995.

       Jon worked as an Assistant State's Attorney for Macon County from the Spring of 2000 until December of 2000, at which time he joined the law firm of Erickson, Davis, Murphy, Johnson, Griffith & Walsh, LTD.  He soon became a partner of the firm and practiced alongside his father, Fred, for nearly 17 years. He is a proud supporter of law enforcement and served the community as an Auxiliary Police Officer for the City of Decatur for many years. Jon is married and has two sons, Fred and George.

He has also been involved in hundreds of criminal cases, including serious felonies.  Jon is a member of the Illinois State Bar Association, the Decatur Bar Association and was an accredited member The National Trial Lawyers organization.
