From the very beginning Eli fought for me and my children’s safety. He advocated for us and stood by me throughout my case . I always felt confident in him but after seeing him in court and how he fought for us I am forever grateful to him.

A good lawyer you should hire
He is a great listener, he trusted my gut, very objective, was able to proof my innocence and brought the case to a dismissal. I shouldn't forget to say, he is cautiously optimistic.

Mr Eli Heller is beyond an excellent lawyer.
Mr Eli didnt just represent me, he fought for my life! He went above and beyond what was required. We were against all odds but he absolutely destroyed our opposition in the courtroom. Instead of just a few jury members finding me not guilty, Mr Eli Heller had no problem getting all 12 jury members to reach a unanimous not guilty verdict.

Eli Heller is an exemplary attorney!
Eli Heller is the gold standard for attorneys! After being advised to hire an attorney and being very frightened because of the seriousness of my case, I spoke to Attorney Heller. He immediately put me at ease. I was struck by his compassion and integrity. He listened carefully as I described my case and assured me that he would work to do his very best in getting the best possible outcome for me and that is exactly what he did!! His humanity, his desire to help, his ability to assuage my worries touched me deeply. He was both professional and friend. I am so thankful to Eli and can’t say enough great things about him. He is a very special man as well as a very special attorney! Indeed, I would most certainly highly recommend Attorney Eli Heller!

Representation On A Personal Level
I was lucky to find Eli. While I've dealt with attorneys in the past for minor issues this time it was big and I was scared. I was going to try and go it alone but I'm glad I didn't and it was money well spent. I sat down and talked with Eli as if I we're talking to a close friend and the results he got me were above and beyond what I anticipated. If you need a true professional and a friend put your trust in Eli. He'll make the best out of a bad situation.

Fights for the truth
Attorney Heller helped me fight for the truth when a crazy ex tried to ruin my life with false accusations and was harassing me. I know I can count on him to protect me from people with issues like this and would recommend him to anybody in a similar situation.
