Originally hailing from Philadelphia, PA, Ervin first moved to Washington, D.C. to attend college at Howard University. While there, they went on to graduate summa cum laude with a bachelor's degree in communications and culture with a minor in sociology.

Ervin also was the recipient of the Emory Public Interest Committee Grant for his work at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. 

Following law school, Ervin remained in Metro-Atlanta gaining litigation experience in various practice areas. Beginning in 2019, Ervin began practicing family law in various courts across the state and later branched out to do work in insurance, evictions, toxic tort, and commerical litigation. However, Ervin's passion has been to assist families in transition, which brought him back to the practice of domestic litigation. Additionally, Ervin has received training from the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution as a mediator and from the Atlanta Volunteer Lawyers Foundation as a Guardian Ad Litem. 

Ervin has had multiple successes both in and outside both the courtroom.
