Why Choose
Our Family-Run Law Firm?
Know Your Lawyer
At our firm, you will work directly with your attorney – no middlemen, paralegals or layers of bureaucracy to work through. Whenever you have a question, you have a direct line to an attorney who will work one-on-one with you to address all your concerns.
Reasonable Rates
As a small firm with low overhead, we can charge lower rates. In addition, we are often able to modify our fee structures depending on the complexity of the case and the client’s ability to pay. Personal injury cases are handled on a contingency basis, and some other cases can be handled on a flat-fee basis. No matter the situation is, we work with our clients on payment plans that fit your needs. Feel free to discuss rates with us during an initial consultation.
Outside-The-Box Representation
Sometimes, a simple solution is readily available, but it takes an attorney with creativity and a sharp eye for detail to see it. We help you step back and consider all the elements at play, then advise you on what to do next.
Fighting Does Not Always Equal Winning
“Fight! Fight! Fight!” That is common language on law firm websites. But mounting a strong legal fight is not just a slogan – it’s a strategy that requires practice, a carefully considered technique and an aggressive stance. At Law Offices of Elling & Elling, we don’t just say we’ll fight for you; we show it through every step of the legal process. In each case, we’ll use every legal tool available to keep our opponents on their toes.
If you’ve been injured, that might mean consulting with independent experts document the scene of the incident and the extent of the injury; in a criminal case, we will ask to have charges dropped or reduced whenever appropriate; in a divorce case we will push hard protect your assets and your children.
Our underlying goal is to push aggressively for your interests. We simply don’t take “no” for an answer.
If you would like to schedule a free initial consultation with either of our lawyers by phone or in our Gaithersburg office, we welcome you to contact us online or to call us at 301-960-3416.
