Review Eliot Reiner

Very Thorough And Professional

Posted by

Eliot, and his team, are extremely thorough and professional, very calming and supportive in our time of legal crisis. Would definitely contact them in the event of future legal situations. Eliot has a great bedside manner that makes you feel confident you have the best-of-the-best, in control every step of the way. Thanks Eliot!

Great accident lawyer highly recommended!

Posted by

I am writing a review of the service I recently received from Eliot Reiner ‘s law firm. My brother and I were involved in a four-car accident by a noninsured driver who was driving on a suspended license. My injuries were light compared to my brother’s. The delinquent driver totaled both our cars plus another one and the uninsured company F450 truck he was driving. The police didn’t even arrest him. We felt there was no way we would be able to get any money from him or the company he worked for. We decided to employ Eliot Reiner on the recommendation of a friend. I found him to be very concerned and very detailed about our accident. He kept us informed of his efforts and did a great job of getting us a good amount of money to cover our losses and injuries. I felt he truly cared about both me and my brother and wanted what was best for us. I was very grateful for his hard work to get us some money to reimburse us for our losses and medical expenses. He was always very pleasant and willing to explain things I didn’t understand. I am happy to highly recommend Eliot Reiner to anyone who is looking for a great lawyer who really cares about you personally and wants to really work for you to get what you deserve. His staff was very professional and helpful. You won’t be disappointed!

Five Star Attorney and Human Being

Posted by

Eliot is one of the most caring people I've met. He will go to bat for you as your attorney and will always check in on you to make sure you're doing okay. He treated me like family & I couldn't have asked for a more generous or caring person to take my case. I got into a car accident on Christmas Eve and had trouble getting medical treatment that night & was worried I'd be stuck with some neck and back problems. Eliot pushed me to get in to see a doctor and even helped me find places that could treat me in Sacramento. I could not recommend him more if you have a car accident injury. He's a good person and he knows what he is doing!! (Everyone in the office is amazing as well - very nice, knowledgable, and accommodating staff).

Thorough and Diligent

Posted by

My wife and I utilized the help of Eliot Reiner when my wife and 3 kids were involved in a serious accident back in 2000. He was there to help us every step of the way, despite the other driver (at fault) having very limited coverage. Unfortunately, our son was involved in a serious accident with an uninsured motorist in December 2020. Eliot knew immediately who I was and recalled the full accident from 20 years ago. Despite the other driver having no insurance and my son having very limited uninsured motorist coverage, Eliot immediately accepted this case and gave it his full attention. Eliot’s attention to detail, coupled his very high knowledge of the law and hard work ethic has stood out. My family and I are grateful for everything he has done! If needed, we would not hesitate to call him again and again. And we would refer him to family and friends. Sincerely, Kyle and Anna Starr

Eliot is the best!!!

Posted by

I just want to say how much I’ve loved working with Eliot and his team during some unfortunate situations. He has not stopped working on my case even during this COVID pandemic. When things get tough he still goes above and beyond to figure out another way. He is truly a very caring and nice man. He is easy to talk to and quick with returning emails and/or phone calls. I trust his opinion and would recommend him to anyone who ever needs his services.

Best Injury Attorney

Posted by

Having Eliot Renier as my injury attorney was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. At first, when I heard about getting an attorney, immediately I thought it’s too expensive. However, in reality, there are ways in which you can afford to have your attorney. Right from the start, I found someone who listens. For most people, the aftermath of an accident is very difficult. Having Eliot Renier as my attorney has been very rewarding. I felt heard and cared for. He took me step by step in understanding what needs to take place and what is going to happen. I felt like I was part of a team. He worked to the best of his ability to maximize my compensation for my injuries. Not only that, I felt and saw the sincerity of Eliot Reiner in his effort to understand my concerns and needs. If you have been in an accident, I highly recommend that you contact the Eliot Reiner APLC. I can guarantee that you’ll be happy and satisfied. You’re just a phone call away.

Outstanding Attorney!

Posted by

When I had a severe auto accident, we obtained a referral from our recently retired Lawyer. That referral was Eliot Reiner. This man took the time to come to our home and meet with us face to face when I wasn’t able to go to him due to my injuries. He did not rush through the initial meet with us. He did a very thorough job identifying all my injuries and the facts of my case. By the end of that initial meeting, I knew we had the right attorney representing us. Once he did accept our case, he kept us in the loop on every development of the case throughout the entire length of it. In the end, he exceeded what I had expected to see in a settlement. We also have a great friend in him as well. I couldn’t be happier!
