Elliott handled my divorce very professionally and timely. He was always responsive to my inquires and returned my calls and emails promptly. Especially noteworthy was his guidance and advice in the preparation of supporting materials, and information. Elliott possesses the key elements of excellentknowledge of his craft combined with experience and the ability to prepare an exceptionally strong well-supported legal position. He was able to contact a vocational expert who prepared an effective assessment to present which indicated my former Spouse's actual ability to earn. Elliot is a calm, extremely intelligent facts-based person rather than an emotional-based individual. He advises his client towards desired positive long-term strategic results instead of short-term emotional wins. In short, he asked me what my important goals and objectives were, and then communicated well with me, explained what I needed to expect throughout the process, informed me of deadlines and reminded me to meet them, and anticipated what the opposing counsel would do, and made sure we were prepared. I felt we were far better prepared than the opposition. Elliott has so much experience that I felt we were well-prepared for contingencies that might have appeared. Elliott is very detail oriented, able to handle some complex calculations involving military retirement computations, and life-insurance valuations when portions were both non-martial and marital. He prepared an efficient illustration of the proposed property split that a lesser attorney would have likely billed a lot of hours to craft in a different way. Elliot has the courage and confidence to tell his clients, "how it is" legally, and what they can realistically expect, "somewhere between the goalposts", for an outcome. There were times when I was frustrated, upset, and over-wrought with the process and what I perceived to be arduous and unfair, but Elliott calmed me down and helped me regain my focus and kept me on track. If you are looking for an attorney who is extremely capable, goes to court well-prepared, has the experience which includes knowing the judges and other attorneys which may be involved in your case, you need to at least have an initial conversation with Elliott. I spoke to not fewer than six attorneys before I chose Elliott to help me though my divorce and am very satisfied with my choice. I feel I was well-served.

I could not be more pleased with the outstanding legal support provided by Elliott. He demonstrated remarkable efficiency and effectiveness throughout my partition action countersuit. This was an emotional matter for me and he helped me stay focused on the facts. Elliott does not suffer fools, which is a quality you want in your lawyer when you’re being billed by the hour. I used a little more than half of my retainer and felt every billable item was accurate and fair. What truly set him apart were the multiple strategies devised that I never would have thought of on my own, ultimately securing a 100% desired outcome. Choosing an experienced and decorated lawyer over someone new in the industry was clearly the right decision. Elliott's expertise and strategic thinking were invaluable, and I wholeheartedly recommend his services. If I ever need legal aid in the future, Elliott will be my first and only call.

I do not recommend hiring this lawyer. He is at the end of his career. I hired him for 7-8 months and he did nothing for me. He just kept charging me every month and when I needed to talk to him he never answered my phone calls or text messages or my e mails in a timely manner. In fact he ignored a lot of my concerns many times. Not only that, I felt that he was acting against my interests and he was not proactive to anticipate issue and let me know my options. He was all the time driven by the other party lawyers and going with the what the other party wants. I finally got fed up with the way that he was handling my case and fired him .
