This was my second time offense and I was very worried about how this would impact my work, family, and everyday life. I got in touch with Elliot and was immediately put at ease with his demeanor, professionalism, and upfront approach to my case. He was on top of all appearances, communications, and was sure to follow up with me regarding next steps. While I do have to pay the consequences for my actions, Eliott was there every step of the way to ensure I was well represented and overall had my back. I definitely recommend his services!

I was charged for several counts for driving & alcohol related offenses. That one night's mistake was going to ruin my entire life! :( I would like to call elliot, the magician ! :) Elliot really saved my case and his "magic" really worked to get a lower count and get out of probation. I really didn't want to get stuck in years and years of paranoia locked in probation. It seems many people do not like to do their own part by researching and discussing your case with attorneys and expect attorneys to be "messiah" all of a sudden in the court. It doesn't work like that, if you want your case to win, you have to help your attorney with research, new ideas and your story ! Attorneys are not "gods", neither prosecutors/judges... They don't know your life and your story... They are also human, so make sure you do your part to work with your attorney & give him/her enough ammunition to help make the best case possibly can! That's the strength of Elliot... He really took time to listened to me and gave me many appointment to meet with him... And he met with prosecutor (one-on-one meeting) to explain my situation and to pretty much plead for mercy & Grace to be flexible. Upto this day Eliot's still helping me... a week ago he came with me to court to help me sort out an issue with clerk office. And not a single penny charged ! His personal hands-on service is what I value the most. Even late nights, he never hesitated to respond to my texts. I was fretting and very anxious of my case and its ramifications, therefore I really needed someone just more than a legal assist... He was personable and took my case personal & serious. Which is how it should be even though I know for many lawyers you just become another file in his/her pile. In a culture that actively promotes alcoholism & its billion dollar industry, Alcohol related offenses have become so common, it has become a automated factory business to pump money for lawyers & cities. Cops have become like robots, issuing tickets ! As a result, Sadly, Good people gets thrown in & get stuck in the nasty court systems and officially get treated like criminals. :( When I go to my classes, I meet many others who just simply let the court throw the book at them and take whatever is given and one leads to another, their entire life is labeled a "criminal" ! I could only wish if they would took their incidents seriously and seek proper legal counsel to achieve the best outcomes so this ugly disorganized court system Won't control their life. Some don't even try ... Truly Sad ! As a result, They endup hating the police, the courts, the law, etc entire Legal system, even become real criminals down the line because they allow small life events converts into huge obstacles that affects their life, careers, family & future. After speaking with many lawyers, I realized elliot Zarabi is the man to help in my case. If you want personable service and friendly care, he's the right guy. Because almost every single bad event happens in our lives (which legal consequences), shouldn't be the end... They all have a way out! Patience with time, and doing your diligence, TRUST ME, Theres a way out ! It all depends on each step you take from there on... That includes getting the right legal counsel. Reach out to many like I did, and settle with the one that suits you & your case the best. Don't let the complications of the law & legal system complicates your life ! Im thankful to Elliot for being there for me... Pretty much day and nights (I used all methods, calls, emails & texts). In life When we feel like we have hit rock bottom, what we really need is not just a lawyer, also a personal friend to comfort us through the hurdles to reach peace of mind. Which is what help us undo the load we have to carry and keeps us sane to face trials in life. The Law is a book, with no feelings, we need the right mediator with feelings to interpret that to us. Again, I'm Thankful to Elliot for outstanding service & care !

I hired Elliot Zarabi and his team to help with my DUI case. He could succeed to change my DUI case to Wet Reckless and magically, reduce my probation from 3 years to 4 month!. Elliot is a first-rate attorney who demonstrated courage and tenacity in representing us. He listened carefully, he skillfully designed an effective defense for our issue, he presented it to the judge and brought immediate closure to the situation we were facing. Eliot is experienced and practical – he will not waste your time. He has a superior comprehension of the nuances of the law and in-depth understanding of the court system. He is the top-notch captain that every team needs. Thank you for bringing peace back into my life. Matt

I came to Elliot for a consultation to handle my 10 year old felony case. I hadn't completed the terms of my probation, none of it, and I was ready to turn myself in. As it turned out not only was my felony probation violation open, but also a slew of smaller warrants for traffic violations. I consulted with a few different attorneys who were all really great but I decided to go with Elliot and I am very glad that I did. First he met me on a Saturday which was very convenient. He genuinely seemed to care about helping me. He was honest and upfront, didn't make any promises to give me false hope. Which I appreciated as I knew how serious the consequences were going to be. Leading up to court there were many times that I had questions about our strategy and Elliot was always available to reply via email, and take my calls. It felt like I was his only client. In front of the judge where it matter the most, Elliot really came through. When my character came into question, he argued fiercely on my behalf. That's when I was 100% sure that I had made the right choice. In the end I received my best possible outcome, and I have Elliot to thank for that. Out of 4 cases (1 Felony and 3 Misdemeanors) that he handled for me I received positive outcomes in each. I'm extremely fortunate. Every scenario is obviously different and I can't guarantee your outcome. I can however tell you that you can have a little more confidence with Elliot behind you.

My husband received a DUI and we were so scared because he drives for a living. I was referred to him by a coworker who spoke highly of him . From the beginning he was awesome!!! You can reach him anytime and any day of the week. He is a very honest person and he makes a stressful situation easy to handle. I highly highly highly recommend him for any DUI case.

A few years back my mom was arrested and hired Elliot to handled her case and got the case dismissed. A few years later, my dad was arrested for DUI and Elliot kept the case from being filed. Spoke with the CHP investigator and it was handled. Then, I had 4 run-ins with the law. Elliot handles them all. Keeping me out of custody, which I thought was impossible to do, with my rap sheet. Thank you Elliot, I love you Hermano!

As someone who resides on the East Coast, I was extremely concerned about my ability to find a reliable, thorough and professional lawyer to defend me when I was not there. The MOMENT I got on the phone with Elliot he told me exactly what he could do, what he couldn't and set very realistic expectations being that this was the first time I had ever been in such a predicament. He educated me on the process and was extraordinarily empathetic to my particular case. What i will tell you all is this, if you want someone to use their incredible knowledge and experience to fight for you in court the same way you would fight for yourself, you need not call anyone else but Elliot Zarabi. I honestly cannot speak more highly of this man and his firm! You are a legend Elliot!

I'm glad i chose Elliot to represent me in my DUI case. I got pulled over by a CHP officer for speeding and wound up blowing a .09. The cop laid things on thick in the police report and, after having read it, I thought that there was likely little that Elliot could do to mitigate the fallout. I'm happy to say that he wound up being able to get the DUI charge thrown out on the condition that i plead no contest to wet reckless. This was likely the best case scenario for me. Thanks, Elliot.

A few months back I came from China to visit my boyfriend who had moved from China to the US. While visiting Universal Studios, I had found out that he was cheating on me. I was very upset and slapped him. I hired Mr. Zarabi to handle the matter for me. Mr. Zarabi went to court for my initially, but the DA and Judge stated I had to be in court. Mr. Zarabi, was able to keep the case open without a warrant for my arrival. When we went to court together on the second court date, I was very impressed with Mr. Zarabi's command in court. He was NOT happy with the way I was being treated. He had a not so pleasant conversation with the DA, who after reviewing, went to her boss and got approval to dismiss the case. I was so happy. The DA even (indirectly) apologized to me. Thank you Mr. Zarabi for all your help, I could not have done this without you!

A friend referred us to Elliot for my brother's case and needless to say, we were VERY HAPPY with the outcome. Elliot is an amazing negotiator - he was able to get the charge dropped to a misdemeanor with no jail time! We also very much appreciated Elliot's professionalism and kindness. This was a very stressful and scary situation, but Elliot made sure to explain the entire process to us and was always willing to answer our questions. We highly recommend him. Thanks Elliot!
