Andy Ellis’ success is a result of the rigorous work ethic and self-discipline indicative of a former stint in the U.S. Army- and before that, the poise and quick thinking under pressure of a onetime craps dealer in the casinos of Atlantic City, New Jersey. When he first opened his legal practice, Andy struggled to make ends meet and keep his doors open. However, he soon discovered a natural talent and passion for protecting consumers, which resulted in some high-value settlements and verdicts early on in his legal practice; a trend he continues to maintain today.
Andy’s dogged protection of consumers in California began with his mother’s advice, who, as a first-generation immigrant, taught him that the opportunities for the common man were as great if not greater than those of the corporations and insurance companies that tried to take advantage of them. From these teachings, Andy gravitated toward a career wherein he could protect the rights of others.
Over the years, there have been many trials which resulted in the recovery of millions of dollars. In fact, Andy has won over a quarter billion dollars on behalf of clients throughout his career as a Los Angeles personal injury attorney
Today, as the founder and senior partner of Ellis Law Corporation he heads a team of experienced litigators representing clients in a wide variety of serious personal injury lawsuits including automobile accidents, negligence, medical malpractice, elder abuse and product liability.

Very hard to answer "how do you know this lawyer." I have known Andy for more than 20 years. I have referred numerous clients to him. I have worked with him. I have done legal work for him. We met around the time he started his personal injury practice working from his kitchen table. I have followed his career along the way -- all the way to the very successful multi-lawyer firm he owns and operates today. In that time, we have become very close friends. He has represented some of my family members, my friends, my kids' teacher, my own clients and others I have referred to him. He is at the top of my list for referrals because I know that his clients get the attention, skill and results they deserve.
