Job Well Done!

Back in April I earned myself a speeding ticket worth $199.50 and 4 points. I decided to take it to court-my main concern was the points. I googled attorney's and called a few, most wanted outrageous amounts of money. Ellis Klein was the last number I called. He was personable, reasonably priced,... and told me that he thought he would have no problem getting rid of the points. We met at court and not only did he rid me of points, he got the case thrown out completely. The hefty fine I paid was refunded to me. I could not have asked for a better outcome. I hope I do not need any future legal services, but if I do I have his card handy.

Excellent Legal Counsel

Having made a few horrible decisions, I found myself in need of legal support. As a result of drinking and driving(2 arrests/10 years apart), my career and livelihood were in jeopardy. I interviewed 3 different attorneys and each had a different "vibe" and approach to my situation. Ellis was, hand...s-down, the best attorney for my case. He was interested in listening to my needs and providing me the best approach to achieving the appropriate result. He was honest with me as we made every effort to provide the DA with a reason to work with me and the charges. Ellis continued to remind me that the chances were slim, but he supported me in the effort. Sure enough, the DA was not willing to work with me, but the efforts were excellent reflection points. At trial, the material gathered was enough to get some flexibility from the Judge. The mandatory minimum sentence is absolutely adhered to, but the flexibility allowed me to move some things in my life around. Ellis's efforts borrowed me the necessary time and the flexibility gained from the courts may very well have saved my career. The reflection process leading up to the trial, guided by Mr. Klein will always be a valuable life lesson that I will look back on with great appreciation. I am not proud that I made the mistakes that I have made, however, I am grateful of the opportunities that remain available in the future. I can attest that Mr. Klein helped tremendously during what was one of the most painful and terrifying experiences in my life. Thank you very Much, Ellis. Tip: He is not a cliche' attorney. He shows compassion and E-mail responses are unbelievably prompt!

Excellent Attorney

I had retained Ellis Klein after having met a couple of attorneys practicing DUI related offences. He was undoubtedly the most knowledgeable among them. He instills confidence in his clients and works very hard for them. He heard me out patiently and explained me the whole process. Communicating wi...th him was never any problem since he always answered my calls and emails. I was always kept informed about everything that was going on at every step of the way. Initially my ARD petition was denied but Ellis requested a review and convinced the concerned ADA to reverse the decision. With Ellis Klein you can be confident that you are in good hands.

I am so glad that we were successful in convincing the DA to change his mind and give you ARD. It was the right result and you deserved the break. Best of luck in the future - EK

Recommend Ellis 100%

After getting a DUI in Bucks County, I called Ellis the following day. The first lawyer I tried calling practically dismissed my phone call, but Ellis took the time to explain to me what was going on, and how the process works. He did this in an honest manner, keeping me optimistic, but still realist...ic. Along the way he patiently guided me through the courts and the ARD process. He was very responsive to my emails and phone calls, as I had many questions about what was going on. I may have been a bit overzealous, but I never sensed any frustration from him. I initially got denied ARD, but luckily I had Ellis on my side. He assisted me in putting reconsideration materials, and he aggressively pursued reconsideration, and ultimately we were successful. In the days leading up to the reconsideration decision and the ARD court date, his correspondence was second to none, even informing me of my success well into the evening on a weeknight. Because of Ellis, I avoided jail time, a criminal record, and more. I am extremely grateful. Thanks Ellis.

Mike, Thank you so much for your kind words. I am thrilled that we were able to get the DA to reconsider his decision to deny you ARD. I truly believe that you deserved to get into the ARD program rather than go to jail for your offense. It was my pleasure representing you and I wish you the best of luck. - Ellis

Difficult Cases

Simply put, excellent job. Able to coach a client for the long term and assist the client to best represent what they have done in making "life changes" to prevent further instances and to acknowledge in front of the judge their personal mistakes. Very good in assisting the client to be their own adv...ocate and not a victim of other's actions.
