Exceptional Service! Best Lawyer I've Ever Had

I highly recommend Elon Berk, an exceptional lawyer with impressive professionalism, expertise, and court connections. He made my complex case remarkably easy and successfully resolved it in my absence, getting it dismissed. His services are top-notch

Best defense attorneys in LA

Elon Berk is the best attorney I know. He, unlike most attorneys, actually cares about clients. He is always responsive which is extremely important in time of need. He was there for me every time I needed him, no questions asked. He worked wonders and I couldn’t be more grateful.

Hired !!!!!

We hired the firm to represent my uncle on a domestic assault, when we thought he was going to jail as the cops told us, the attorneys at this firm, especially Elon, was super helpful, understanding and very comforting. They totally put us at ease and came through on the promise to keep my uncle ou...t of jail !!! They worked on every little detail to make sure and prove he was innocent. We are beyond greatful forever .

  • 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.
