Why Baltimore Turns to the Law Office of David Ellin

  • Trial-Ready Strategy: We are not a volume firm. We are not a settlement mill. We know our clients and prepare every file as if it is going to trial. This meticulous preparation puts pressure on the defense to offer a fair settlement.
  • No Recovery, No Fee: You pay nothing upfront. Our firm operates on a contingency fee basis, meaning we only get paid when we secure compensation for you.
  • Extensive litigation and practice throughout the Baltimore Metropolitan area: From the Circuit Court for Baltimore City to venues in Owings Mills and Reisterstown, we know the local legal landscape and the judges who preside over these cases.
  • Direct Attorney Access: You are not just a file number here. We keep you informed at every stage of the litigation process.

I am retired and had to undergo emergency medical treatment. The hospital sent me a bill for more than $80,000 that I could not afford. I reached out to David Ellin more for advice than for legal services. He reviewed my paperwork and offered to contact the hospital on my behalf. After a few months, the hospital agreed not to pursue payment beyond what insurance had covered. When I asked about his legal bill, he told me he had taken the case pro bono. I owe him my gratitude.

Hello to all of those interested in reading reviews for this wonderful law office team. A little over two years ago I was rear ended several months after major back surgery. My case was complex and originally with another disorganized law office. When David Ellin’s office took over, everything changed. They were on top of things, restored my faith, got my medical bills paid and my time off work compensated. They even expedited part of my settlement when my dog needed surgery. I walked out knowing I was in good hands. I would recommend David Ellin to others and encourage people to be patient and let this team work with you.

K. M.

I have been a client of Mr. David Ellin for over 10 years, and he and his staff have shown me nothing but professionalism, support, respect, concern and dedication. I know I have called them as much as I call some family members, and they always remain friendly and professional. That means a lot nowadays.

K.

If my memory serves me correctly my first encounter with David Ellin was in 2001 and then later in 2009. He helped me recover money from a well-known real estate company and represented me when my truck was hit by a teenager. Both times he was very successful.
