Excellent Firm

Michael and Damaris were always available to help and answer any questions we had. They kept us updated and in the loop through the entire process. Michael fought for us and we had a very positive outcome of our case. Our family would recommend Michael to anyone in need of legal assistance.

Like family

Michael Elstein is a one-of-a-kind attorney. With a compassionate heart, he kept me well informed of the process from beginning to end. He took interest in my personal wellbeing and followed up even after the case was closed. He really is part of the family.

Highly recommended

Michael was with me throughout my entire process. He was very hands on and we were in contact continuously. I had treatment and then eventually needed surgery as the injury was not getting better. He allowed me to pick my doctor and who I wanted to handle my care. This was very important to me. He in...teracted with my doctors and PT's with regards to possible outcomes and future expectations. He is aggressive with opposing counsel but very professional. He took control of all the situations in the mediation processes. We were scheduled for a court date but settled shortly before that date. I was very excited at the settlement which was more than expected. Michael is very versed in the PI world, polished, aggressive and gets results. I would recommend Michael to anyone involved with an injury case.

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.
