Highly recommend Eleni

Eleni, a legal expert, went above and beyond to provide me with the result I was seeking. Her friendly demeanor, prompt responses, and extensive knowledge made her an excellent choice. I highly recommend Eleni and her team for future legal matters.

Incredible attorney who wants the best for you!

Having worked with multiple attorneys, only one has stood out above them all and that is Eleni. She provided options and laid out the pros and cons for each. I was very comfortable and instantly felt like she wanted the best possible outcome for me, and would work hard to make that happen. Can't r...ecommend her enough!

If You Want the Best Result - Call Eleni!

I was rear ended by a semi-truck on our way to vacation. The horror of watching this huge semi barreling up from behind us while stopped in traffic was terrifying to say the least. After calling several attorneys and leaving messages to call back Attorney Drakatos was the only one who returned my c...all in a timely manner. She set up an appointment right away and explained the process and what to expect. She kept me up to date as the process progressed. I felt totally confident in my decision to hire her and she did not fail me. I was happy with the compensation I received and would hire her again without question! Holly H.

So professional, compassionate and effective

I was rear-ended at high speed which led to a life-changing personal injury and a totaled vehicle. The responsible party's insurance company was refusing to pay by medical bills or my property damage. Not only did Eleni take my case, she negotiated a very fair settlement. Throughout my case, she made... sure to listen to my concerns and kept me apprised of what was (or wasn't) happening. I cannot speak highly enough of her. God forbid, should I need an attorney in the future, Eleni will be my first call.

Car Accident Legal Help

Eleni was exactly what we needed after we both almost lost our lives to a driver who totally at fault in an accident we were involve in. She came to our house and carefully laid out the game plan for pursuing everything that we were entitled to receive and in the end we were able to have all of our... medical bills paid for and received the maximum amount of compensation that the insurance companies were required to make. We can't thank her enough for all the she did. We were kept updated throughout the process and highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of an attorney with integrity and professionalism.

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.
