Dismissed 7 felony charges

Azzam is the Best of the best this guy is connected and respected. Puts a lot of energy and time into his cases and got me out of an assault with intent to murder charge plus 6 more felony charges without any jail time or probation. Worth every penny I will never take a legal issue Anywhere else.

$$$ 3 Million Dollar Result

I feel that God sent us to Azzam Elder. My husband was severally injured in a truck accident and it almost bankrupt our family. Elder Brinkman law firm are amazing lawyers and they are extremely strategic and they cared for me and my family as if we were blood relatives. If they represent you then... you are blessed. We were with a miracle result from our lawyers hard work--- THREE MILLION DOLLARS!

Great Attorney

Azzam Elder has so much respect from Judges. When I was in court with him so many Judges show much admiration for him. From my case I learned that he is cool headed, and very strategic. He is honest and knows how to handle any situation. I am a Doctor who got caught up in a business dispute. Azza...m took care of everything for me. I am extremely grateful for his counsel. I will recommend anyone I care about to use him and his office for all matters.

Amazing Attorney who understands how to get things right.

I am a Doctor who needed strategic advise on how to grow my business and also ensure that my business plan is compliant with Stark and other regulations. Mr. Azzam Elder has amazing skills in legal, criminal, and business experience. This is hard to find in a lawyer. I have used other firms who ch...arge so much more. Mr. Elder is the best value and provides the best service. I highly recommend him.

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.
