Excellent Across the Board

I was fortunate enough to retain Mr. Elberg for issues relating to my medical practice. He proved to be the consummate professional in all of our interactions. As a result of his representation, I was able to achieve a result that greatly exceeded my expectations. He was professional, insightful,... thoughtful, and had a firm grasp on the legal matters that were of interest to me. Mr. Elberg was obviously experienced as he anticipated my current concerns and he was able to point me in a direction that addressed future concerns that I had not even considered. If you are considering the advice of Mr. Elberg, I can say that you will be very satisfied with the results you get. Anonymous MD Charleston, SC

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
