Work Comp Experience

Amazing staff and quick response to any questions I had. Mr. Eley made me feel like I was his only client when he spoke to me. I never felt rushed to end a conversation. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a good solid attorney with a lot of experience.

Best lawyer I've encountered.

If you are looking for a knowledgable, professional and kind lawyer for workers comp look no further. Mr. Eley was so helpful with my situation. He made me feel as if my case was his only case. Top priority. I always spoke directly with him, never his paralegal. Any questions I had he answered prompt...ly. He never hesitated to meet with me and over all he got me the results I wanted and deserved. This man is a true professional and I highly recommend him. I wish he was a personal injury lawyer. I'd have it made. Lol. Hope this helped. Trust me, you will not regret going with the Eley Law Firm.

Injured Nurse

I contacted Cliff Eley almost 5 years ago after a work related injury. From the first time I spoke with Cliff, I felt comfortable. He was kind, professional, down to earth. My injury which should have been resolved in a year became complicated with infections and multiple surgeries. Cliff and his... office were always there to return my emails, and calls getting me the results I needed to recover. My injury case continue so long that Cliff will not be compensated financially for all the time he invested in me. After a year of work, I had to call Cliff and tell him that I had a relapse and ask him what to do. He told me not to worry that he would be there for me and he immediately started intervening for me, getting me the medical care I need. When I expressed worry about the financial aspect, he reassured me and told me not to worry, that he will make sure I get the care I need. I am so thankful for Cliff, he has helped me above and beyond. Thank you Cliff for paying it forward.

Injured flight attendant-thank you Cliff Eley

I was injured while on duty while working as a flight attendant in Colorado. After my injury I had to return to my home in Orlando. Due to my injury I am unable to return to this line of work and was having a very difficult time getting my employer to assist with medical care as well as financial c...ompensation. I searched for an attorney online as I needed a Colorado attorney and was living in Florida. I found Cliff Eley online and called his number after reading his reviews from previous clients. He immediately responded to my call personally. Not only did he explain workers comp law to me in a language I could understand but offered his assistance at no cost to me until my case was settled. Cliffs' explanation of workers comp law and realistic expectations of what resolve there would be of my case gained my trust and confidence in his professional assistance and capabilities. Any time I've had a question or concern Cliff has always responded immediately and has always corresponded with me personally. I truly feel Cliff has my best interest at heart. His knowledge of the workers comp law & genuine interst in helping me with my injury and getting back on my feet has meant a lot to me and my family. I would definitely recommend Clifford Eley if you have been injured on the job and need help getting through the financial difficulties that come with being out of work from a work related injury. My case is still open, yet Cliff made it possible for me to recieve over $3000 which will help me make it through a couple more months and the holidays. Again, thank you Cliff Eley for your professional services, integrity, and helping me to get through this little set back in my life.

"I have known Mr. Eley for many years, and we have represented clients on different sides in workers' compensation claims. Mr. Eley is a zealous advocate for his clients, but always is respectful and trustworthy in our cases. Mr. Eley is also a worthy adversary at trial, and presents a very disciplined and persuasive case. He makes any defense counsel be on his/her toes. Yet, Mr. Eley is able to work in a collaborative way to resolve issues that should be resolved without having to go to trial. I highly recommend Mr. Eley."
