I asked him if I was going to owe him money after the settlement was complete he said maybe

Ellis Law Firm I would not recommend this Law Firm to any one dealing with this lover was complete nightmare all I saw was his intentions on keeping as much money as it possibly could for him and the doctor they over charged both him and the doctor me they drugged their feet I had to fire him and set...tle my lawsuit with the insurance company myself which settle for $8,500 which was a joke I had to turn over $6,000 to him and pay $22,000 to the doctor's bill this guy is a complete joke I asked about a rental car the beginning he told me I should probably learn to take the bus that was his reply I was very upset I put in for a advance on settlement the loan company was going to prove it all he had to do is sign the paperwork but he took it upon himself call the loan company and basically get them to shoot down my loan because he wanted to keep as much money as he could this Law Firm only looks out for themselves I can imagine how many people they have cheated out of large portions of the settlement my name is Anthony a y o n don't hire this thief

Dropped the ball

I retained mr Ellis as my attorney after I was hit on a bicycle by a truck in Los Angeles. During this time I was struck 2 more times by a car and a truck which was a hit and run. After this was going on I had a slip and fall at the local VA hospital In west los Angeles. 1st case I did myself and... gotta judgement. 2 nd case he did but it was small settlement on mercury. He started the 3rd contacted the insurance company. I was out of country getting medical treatment and after several arguments with his office staff he mailed all my papers unfiled and I completed to my family. I came back and found out about the paper work after the 2 years statue limitations had expired. He dropped the ball and when I called his office the staff was nasty and bitchy. Never got a call back from him. Now 8 years later new injury has been discovered extending limitations for 1 more year. I will not be retaining him again, and I hope you won't either

Sir, Ellis law does not have a case that matches any of these facts. If you send me your name (I cannot figure out who you were from this name above) I can review the files Ellis Law has never in its 23 year history blown a statute of limitations. These lies are just mean and the facts stated above don't match the state of law. Please send your info to [email protected]

It has been a real pleasiire to have Andy Ellis Representing me in my law suit. He and Britt Carp have been with me all the way. They are never to busy to take my call or answer my questions. Very professional and very helpfull. They have my best interest at heart. I would highly recommend them....

Best of the Best

Less than two years ago I was seriously injured when a truck driver plowed into the back of my car. Once the medical bill started piling up, I knew I had to do something fast. I reached out to a lawyer friend of mine who immediately gave me Mr. Ellis' contact information. During my initial consul...tation, Mr. Ellis made me feel comfortable and showed genuine respect for the tough times I had been through. More importantly, he didn't play any games or hide the ball. He gave me a fair and hones assessment of my case and promised he would fight for me. Throughout my case, his office was very attentive. They returned every single call and gave me as many status updates as I requested. They always told me exactly what they needed from me and never wasted my time like so many lawyers do. My case settled just a few days ago and I am thrilled with the results! I am glad I trusted Mr. Ellis' office with this life changing case. No I won't have any more medical debt and will be compensated for all of my pain. Thank you to Mr. Ellis and the rest of his wonderful staff!

A Highly Competent and Caring Attorney

Having had the recent pleasure to work directly with Mr. Ellis on a significant case, I felt it important to pay compliment to Mr. Ellis and his staff for not only the extreme level of competence, detail and zealous advocacy that they put forth towards the case, but the fact that Mr. Ellis and his s...taff were so compassionate in their dealings with the clients. They took the time and attention necessary to make sure that the clients were involved and understood how the legal process works. As important, I was impressed with how caring Mr. Ellis and his team at Ellis Law were the clients, helping them during a most difficult time for the family, and explaining matters in a way that were straightforward and easily understood to comfort the clients in knowing that their legal rights were being well represented. It was refreshing to work with Mr. Ellis, who truly put the needs of his clients before his own. Mr. Ellis' professionalism working with the many attorney involved, with the complex legal issues involved with the case, and with the clients was outstanding and was reflected by the significant settlement that he and his team was able to obtain for the clients. It was a pleasure working with Mr. Ellis; I would do so again and I would readily recommend his office for personal injury matters.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"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."
