His knowledge of the law is extraordinary and his experience as a trial lawyer means that he is not afraid to fight for your rights. I highly recommend that you contact Mr. Wilcox if you or a family member is facing a DUI or any other criminal matter."
"Elliott reached out to me through the National College of DUI Defense, an organization to which we both belong that is dedicated to educating attorneys in the area of DUI defense and advocating for fair impaired driving laws. I'm impressed by his knowledge of Florida DUI law and have enjoyed reading his free book - The No BS Guide to Surviving Your Florida DUI - which you can get on his website. Elliott strikes me as the type of attorney who is dedicated to his clients and actually cares about them, rather than their fee. If I ever ran into a DUI issue in Florida, he's the guy I'd call."
"I have known Elliott for over 20 years as we attended law school together and started our careers as prosecutors in the same office. We have both since entered the private sector. Over the years, Elliott has continued to work tirelessly to obtain great results for his clients. He is my "go to lawyer" for any matters in the Tampa area."
"I am happy to endorse Elliott. He is a committed DUI defense lawyer and a member of The National College for DUI Defense.

"As an Assistant State Attorney I had many cases where Mr. Wilcox was representing the accused. He is extremely knowledgeable in the area of DUI defense and would make some of the most compelling arguments I can remember. Overall a very good attorney."
"I first me Elliott through Toastmaster, where we were both members. He coached me through the networking necessary to become a prosecutor. Several times during my career I met up with Elliott at prosecutor school, including DUI, where he was always one of the best instructors. Now that I have left the State Attorney's Office I am at liberty to say that I endorse this lawyer."
"Mr. Wilcox is an extremely skilled and talented DUI defense attorney. I have personally learned a lot from Mr. Wilcox that helped me in my DUI defense practice. If my family or close friend found themselves charged with a DUI, I would send them to Elliott!"
"I endorse this lawyer. I have know Attorney Wilcox for many years and there is no better advocate. His combined mastery of the law as well as the Rules of Criminal Procedure make him an unbelievable advocate in court.

If I or any of my friends or family were ever charged, Elliott Wilcox Parker would be my only choice to represent me!"

"Elliott Wilcox is an experienced trial lawyer who you can trust to handle your case. As a former prosecutor, he knows both sides of the law. Elliott knows all of the angles the police use to try to get a conviction and he can use that knowledge to your benefit. Elliott also authors one of the top Internet web sites devoted to trial techniques. This knowledge will benefit you in the defense of your DUI case. I endorse Elliott’s work as a defense attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer. Elliot is a consumate trial professional. He knows how to try a case and absolutely has no fear in the courtroom. He is so good he was trial advocate instructor to many lawyers and a client is in excellent care in his capable hands."

Elliot is an excellent attorney. He is knowledgable in DUI Defense and an excellent courtroom advocate. I highly recommend him."
