Elliot S Stomel

After being charged with a DUI, I started my lawyer search on Avvo and narrowed my choice down to about 4 or 5 attorneys. Out of all the attorneys I contacted Elliot was the only one I was able to speak with personally, which was a good sign and moved me in his direction right from the start. I... scheduled an appointment and after meeting with him I was very pleased. His fees were well below the quotes I received from the other attorneys and he was upfront and straightforward about what was I was facing and how he intended to handle my case. Further, based on the DUI-related research I had done on my own prior to meeting with him, he was very knowledgeable on the penalties and consequences associated with DUI in New Jersey. But his greatest asset turned out to be the personal relationships he had with the Court personnel in the County where I was being charged. While I do not know the extent of his connections throughout the state of New Jersey, it appears that he has developed many relationships throughout NJ and that he is well-respected by most. Both the Judge and DA knew him well and I could tell there was a positive connection between them. I am sure this played a factor in the outcome I received in my case. My Tier 3 offense essentially became a Tier 1. My BAC (0.15+) was thrown out and I basically received the minimum penalty/fees possible for a DUI in NJ. Throughout the duration of my case, I never spoke or met with anyone but Elliot and he was personally there to meet me in Court both times I had to appear and that in itself is a huge comfort and relief when you hear your name called and you're standing there in front of the Judge. Im quite sure I received the best outcome possible and Elliot made sure to verify that I was certain and confident in the choices I was making throughout the process. Although I have no point of comparison to other DUI lawyers (and I hope I will never have to again), I am completely satisfied with the representation I received from Elliot Stomel and I have no regrets hiring him.

Wow. This man really knows the law. I needed a lawyer and after reading his other reviews on Avvo.com I called to have a consultation. I left a message on his personal number, which was listed, and Elliot called me back within minutes. Not a secretary or receptionist but Elliot himself. After our fir...st conversation I felt completely comfortable with him and I knew I made the right decision. He was very knowledgable and very honest which I appreciated. I can't say that for other lawyers I spoke with. Not only did I feel like when I spoke with him I had his total attention, he always responded back to me every time I reached out to him ensuring all of my questions and concerns were answered. Although my situation was not ideal Elliot was definitely the ideal lawyer. I was very happy with the outcome with my case. Elliot was very professional and just an absoulte pleasure to work with. I would recommend him to anyone!

Elliot was great through out the process of what was a hard time for me and my family.. he answered my call on a Saturday morning and talked for over a half an hour with me about my case.. right then I knew he was the right guy for the job. He fought to get the best results we could get and I am very... thankful for that. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and did not leave my side in court while other lawyers had 2-3 clients at once I was his only client which meant he did not have to divide his time.. great lawyer I would highly recommend!!

I hired Elliot to represent me in a local NJ case. He was very thorough in presenting to me the pros and cons of the charges and worked with the court to obtain the best results given the circumstances. Not only did he keep me well informed he personally ensure that I understood everything and was ...personally involve in the case from the beginning to the end. I really appreciated the personal touch in ensuring I was find going through this trying time. I would highly recommend Elliot as a excellent lawyer and one who personally cares for his client.

There is a long list of available attorneys in this area and I am so relieved to have found Elliot Stomel to help me with issues in court. He made sure I was very indformed as to what charges and possible outcomes I was facing. I know that every outcome is different for each case, sometimes it can ...be all down to luck- so why should we even hire anyone at all? I believe because of Elliot's attention to details and years of professional service not only set him apart from other lawyers, but ensured us the best possible outcome that day. As we were standing there in front of the judge I knew we were fully ready and had no doubts as what to expect. Elliot even made sure he would be the first one in the courthouse before the dozens of other cases to be heard that day. My case had a much better outcome than I had feared or even hoped. I certainly would never have achieved such a resolution on my own. Elliot even caught a mistake on the receipts and went back to fix what could have been a problematic future issue. What a relief to have had Elliot Stomel and his years of great service by my side the whole time.
