Elliot Steven Solop

So grateful to have found Elliot Solop. I was facing a tough and complex family legal situation that required sensitivity to both the courts and the real world outside of the law. He gave me good strategies for both and helped me navigate all the way through to a successful result, better than expect...ed. Elliot was a patient and thoughtful adviser who listened compassionately. He gave options and put things into context so I could understand them. He really cares about getting the best outcome for his clients and their kids, and he fights for you fearlessly without being obnoxious or aggressive. He was always well prepared and on time. He's a true advocate. I felt very confident being represented by him, which freed me up to me focus on what I had to do. Hiring Elliot was the best choice I could have made and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Get him if you can. Thank you, Elliot!

I met Elliot when he was a first-year associate at another law firm, and I was in search of a new family attorney less than a year after my bed & board (financial) divorce was signed. My original attorney made so many mistakes with my case and was terrible with numbers (money, settlement, support etc...), I ended up having to hire 2 accountants to fix her mess. During a divorce with a dissolution of assets along with child support and/or alimony you need an intelligent attorney who is great with numbers, I learned this the hard way. So, when my ex stopped paying child support for months ($15K), I refused to go back to my original attorney, her mistakes cost me a lot of money and some of the original agreement wording has haunted my life since. Family and friends recommended that I go see a reputable attorney at Ansel, Grimm, & Aarons. I think I met with the wrong person, we did not hit it off, but then she brought in Elliot. She was passing me off to her first-year associate, thinking I was broke and not knowing I have $5k in cash on my person that day. From the moment I met Elliot it was obvious that not only was he hungry to prove himself as an attorney but also that he really cared about helping me and my children. This was something I had not experienced from any attorney, true empathy. That was just the beginning. Since the very first motion Elliot wrote for my case 7 years ago, to the motion he just wrote a few months ago, to the agreement he just crafted last month in mediation during Covid; he has consistently delivered for me. I just walked away with the sweetest covid deal ever, of course I had to give concessions, that is how it works, but I got what mattered and more importantly, I now have 3 years of peace and that is thanks to Elliot. It takes a lot to impress me, I have an extraordinarily strong personality, I question everything, and yes, I am difficult on a good day. Yet Elliot has never let me down, even the times when I have yelled, screamed and cried to him. In fact, he has gone above and beyond a few times to fix errors someone else made. Together we have had 2 mediations and several other motions to the court for cause. Elliot is right 90% of the time, and that other 10%, is the unforeseen, that no one can account for. This is my experience and not an exaggeration. The only time I went to court without Elliot, I was being cheap, it was another arrears hearing and figured I could do it myself. BIGGEST mistake ever. Sure, I won but my ex called in his attorney and I was too embarrassed to call Elliot, so I walked away with a win and nothing tangible. With Elliot, I walk away with so much more, every single time! In my opinion, as well as my experience, Elliot is everything a GREAT Attorney should be: Professional, composed, honest, confident, compassionate, creative and great with numbers ($$). He is also highly respected by his peers, every attorney, mediator and judge I have encountered with Elliot at my side truly respect him as a formidable adversary and great litigator. My ego absolutely inflates walking in any situation with Elliot as my attorney. You are probably thinking, why creative, why is that so important for an attorney to be? Well NJ is ranked in the top 3 most expensive states to live in but also in the bottom 3 states for child support. It is completely upside down and vastly different from 25 years ago. You will waste more money going to court than you will ever win in this liberal state. You need an attorney who is great with numbers and creative, I learned that through Elliot. His legal creativity and understanding of finance have had me walking away from the table better than anything a judge would rule for me. You cannot lose with Elliot if you trust and listen to him.

Elliot is extremely knowledgeable, patient and talented in his field! I needed help with an international prenup and we went above and beyond to make sure every detail was exactly as it should be. I highly recommend working with him and I can assure you that you will be very pleased with his services.... Thank you Elliot, for you time and dedication to my needs!
