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.

Mechanical Engineer

I had an unfortunate injury and required surgery and physical therapy. The last thing I needed was to worry about my finances or job. I was referred to Mr. Elstein. He patiently walked me through the maze and allowed me to concentrate on healing as best I could while he concerned himself with everyth...ing else. I know him to be a patient, extremely intelligent negotiator. I recommend him for any and all workmen's comp cases, however should I need an attorney in the future he will never be forgotten.

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.
