We Won!
Where do I start! Absolutely amazed by Issa Elkhatibs work! Very amazed! I was very nervous walking into my case and I have NEVER had to have an attorny in my whole life. Issa broke everything down little by little for me to understand how the process works. He kept very open communication he told me everything that was needed to know and every option that I had. At my pre trial I definitely did start to cry because I am young and get stressed and I started to cry because of being over whelmed and he immediately stopped talking and asked if I was crying and told me everything will be okay! Not only does he do his work at being an attorny but he cares about you as a person outside of the law! ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS keeps you in the swing of things you are never unaware of what is happening with your case they are busy people but they manage very professionally. Very happy with him and his entire crew that sides with him at his office! I was VERY satisfied with the entire law office crew! We won! And I could never thank you enough to him! He definitely will play a big part in my life! You too Aurora! Thank you guys so much for everything you have done! I 120% recommended Issa Elkhatib law office! You will be VERY satisfied!

Got me paid!
My pregnant wife and I got into a car accident while riding in an Uber. We tried handling it ourselves but we were offered $800!!!!! So I found Mr. Elkhatib online and I am happy I did. Mr. Elkhatib was able to get us a whole hella lot more! We asked God for a down payment on a hous and he delivered. God is good! Thank you Issa and thank you Arora as well!!

Lawyer that cares
My son was involved with bad friends that basically got him in trouble. Juvenile arrested him and I had little money to work with. When I found Attorney Issa he said he would work with me with a payment plan. No other attorney was kind as he was. His assistant Aurora was also very nice and helpful. It wasn’t cheap but I did what I had to do. Attorney Issa was able to get my son out of jail so that he could spend Christmas with his family. I would recommend this attorney to any one I know. God is good.

Would always recommend
So let me tell you about this man. I got into trouble because I made a mistake. I called many lawyers and they all non shalant about my side of the story. Mr. Issa is the only lawyer that actually LISTENED to what I had to say. He is so professional and very kind. In court he was always on time and about his business. Thank you for your help!

He's awesome
I contacted Mr. Elkhatib regarding a driving under suspension case that was quite old. He went to bat for me, and ended up getting the entire case dismissed. I could not be happier with the results and I would utilise him again in a heartbeat....and I would refer anyone to him Thanks for the great experience.

Incredible Results
Issa is an absolutely phenomenal attorney! I didn’t realize this until after my case, but he has studied and worked under some of the best. He successfully fought for me on a frivolous civil protective order which an insane ex-girlfriend filed on me. The opposing counsel dismissed the case before trial due to Issa’s brilliant strategies. I was extremely thankful to have him, saving me time, money, further headaches, and restoring my good name. CPOs are serious matters, and they must be dealt with in a serious manner

Case dismissed!
Issa is the best!!! I was falsely accused and paired up with a court appointed attorney that did not believe that I was innocent. I did a quick Google search and found Issa. Thank Jesus I did! After our consultation he was calm and collected, most importantly he believed in my truth. At my court hearing he was able to convince the prosecutor to drop the charges! I highly recommend this man!
