Eliot Reiner Is Awesome

Eliot Reiner is an incredible attorney but more importantly he is also an incredible individual who genuinely cares about the well-being of his clients. In 2015 I was driving home from work when I was hit by a drunk driver who was texting and speeding. After the accident I contacted a friend who ha...d recently retired as an attorney representing a large insurance company and asked him if he knew a good personal injury attorney. Without hesitation he recommended Eliot Reiner. He said that he had worked on several cases (opposing Mr. Reiner and his clients) and that he had absolute confidence in him and that he would hire him if he were in my shoes. From our very first meeting it was clear that we had made the right choice in allowing Eliot Reiner to take our case. Eliot is highly experienced and extremely knowledgeable in the field of personal injury law practice. He has always put our family’s personal well being as his top priority in addressing our case. He is kind and extremely generous with his time. Eliot will answer any question (often multiple times) regarding the complexities of the case. He is also a very humorous man and is able to combine humor with his expertise to create a relaxed and casual atmosphere. We came away from all of our meetings with a relaxed sense of accomplishment and well being. Without question I would recommend Eliot Reiner and his highly accomplished staff to anyone who is involved in an unanticipated accident.

Service Excellence

I had a very difficult case with several items not in my favor. Mr. Reiner worked hard to ensure he understood every detail of my motorcycle accident, explained the deposition and arbitration processes; and most importantly, Mr. Reiner always ensured he worked hard for me.

Highly Recommended!

I was referred to Eliot back in 2014 by a friend who had nothing but good things to say about him, and his services. After my first meeting with him I knew he was the man for the job. Eliot explains everything in depth, is very understanding, yet very aggressive when it comes to getting you what you ...deserve. He has gone above and beyond for me TWICE now after I was injured in 2 different car accidents, where I was not at fault and both drivers were uninsured. My outcomes were more than I expected and that is thanks to Eliot. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him!

Eliot Reiner

If you want a true professional Eliot is it! I was in an auto accident a few years ago and Eliot held my hand through every step to make sure it was done correctly. This included timely demands, Dr records, appts, including correct medical procedures. Eliot made sure I was correctly compensated for a...ll I endured, I now have not only a GREAT ATTORNEY when needed but a lifetime friend. Can't go wrong here, there's no better than Eliot!

Very Professional

In January of 2012, I was working on another person’s property. I was assigned to cut vines on top of a wood trellis. I fell off and I suffered a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and a spinal injury. I ended up with a concussion, a contusion, and three ruptured spinal ligaments, and I spent a week in the... hospital. At the time, I was a minor, only 14 years old, so workers’ compensation was not an option. The day after the accident, I met Eliot. From the moment I met him, he was extremely professional and assured me and my family that he would take care of everything. After dealing with insurance companies, we finally settled in March of 2014. I cannot begin to describe how much Eliot has helped my family and I. Not only does he know what he’s doing, but he also makes an effort to explain the legal processes to his clients as well. Without Eliot’s support and guidance, my life would be very different than it is today, and would highly recommend him to anyone seeking a personal injury attorney.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
