You won’t find a better lawyer

Yusuf helped me in a proceeding against my ex girlfriend. Was with me every step of the way during my ups and downs throughout the process (mainly ups). He took care of everything in the best way possible and cannot thank him enough.

Consummate professional with a heart of gold

Mr Elashmawy came highly recommended to me at a very low point in my life. We had been struggling through a very difficult Family Court case for over three years. At our initial meeting, I found him to be attentive, kind and compassionate. He was also very knowledgeable about the law, After speaking... with him, I knew we were finally in very capable hands. Mr Elashmawy and his staff worked diligently on our behalf. There was a successful outcome. The child in question is now thriving. Mr. Elashmawy saved his life.

Best ACS/CPS Lawyer

Truly professional and outstanding person. I've been going through a very complicated case against ACS and he has been navigating everything to extreme high standards. His guidance has been incredible in my fight. I am now at the end of my case with very positive results. This would not have been pos...sible without him. He is amazing!

Excellence Family Law Attorney

Yusuf did an amazing job in helping me win my child custody case. It was a battle that lasted for about 18 months but we played the long game and won. Thank you for all your help Yusuf.
