Biography
Andrew Ellis, personal injury attorney serving El Segundo
Andrew Ellis is an attorney based in El Segundo, CALIFORNIA. The practice focuses on Personal Injury. Andrew has over 33 years of legal experience. Currently practicing at Ellis Law Corporation. Andrew works from El Segundo, California and takes on personal injury matters across the region.
As one of the premiere Los Angeles personal injury attorneys in Southern California, Andy Ellis attributes his success to the work ethic and self-discipline he learned while serving in the United States Army. Before enlisting in the Army, a stint as a craps dealer in the casinos of Atlantic City, NJ, allowed him to develop the poise and quick-thinking under pressure, which is so necessary to a successful trial lawyer.
But Ellis's career trajectory as a premiere serious personal injury trial lawyer may have been instilled by his mother, a first-generation immigrant to America. She taught Ellis that in this country, the rights of "Every Man" were as great, if not greater, than those of the corporations and insurance companies that try to take advantage of them. It was a natural evolution for Ellis to gravitate to a career in which he protects the rights of those who suffer serious personal injuries and of families who have lost a loved one to a wrongful death due to the carelessness or negligence of another.
Of course some might say that the law runs in Ellis's blood since his great-grandfather founded the New York City law firm, Ellis, Ellis & Ellis, which didn't close its doors until 1993, at the turn of the century. Great-grandfather Ellis also acted as Theodore Roosevelt's attorney and was head of the New York City Republican Party.
Today, Ellis, the founder and senior partner at Ellis Law Corporation, surrounds himself with some of the finest litigators in California and a dedicated and skilled legal support staff. The firm regularly obtains outstanding verdicts and settlements for its clients, who often leave touching and grateful testimonials.
Ellis Law Corporation always offers a free, no-obligation, and confidential consultation. You'll have an opportunity to discuss your legal issue and to learn what legal options are available to you so you can make the best plan of action for you.
Neither a retainer nor any money is needed upfront. If Ellis Law Corporation decides to take your case and if you select Ellis Law to represent you, lawyer's fees and costs come from the pre-agreed upon percentage that Ellis Law obtained for you. If Ellis Law doesn't win your case, you owe the firm nothing, not a nickel.
