Dharisi V. November 4, 2024
Reduced the traffic citation to nonmoving violation successfully Ellis Klein helped me to reduce the points to non moving violation with out my presense in the court. This is a great help for me to reduce the insurance amount. He made me feel at ease on just a phone call only. He is very knowledgeable. I am recommending this attorney for your legal help.

Reliable and comforting to work with Mr. Klein is a great lawyer to have. He made me feel at ease and welcome when we met. He is very knowledgeable. He helped me with my case every step. He also continued to assist me with a few questions after my case was successfully completed. He is not pushy or irritable, he was understanding, knew everything about what I was facing in my case and very helpful. Couldn't do it without him.

Biography

25 office locations throughout Pennsylvania. Call for nearest office location.

I am a former Senior Deputy District Attorney with personal experience in over 10,000 court cases, ranging from minor traffic offenses to homicide. In addition to criminal and traffic defense, I have been practicing Bankruptcy since 1999 and have helped thousands of clients get a Fresh Financial Start.

My practice is limited to Criminal, DUI, Traffic and Bankruptcy cases. I am NOT a general practitioner who handles many different types of law. Criminal and Bankruptcy law is the only law that I have practiced since I became a lawyer over 25 years ago.

Over the past 25+ years of practice I have worked with thousands of police officers and have appeared in court on countless occasions. Few attorneys possess my firm’s background and extensive experience in this area of the law.

CUSTOMER SERVICE - I treat clients the way I would want to be treated if I was experiencing legal problems – with honesty, kindness and respect. I do not tell clients what they want to hear just to get a case. I do not scare clients into retaining me. I will never say to a client “Don’t worry about it.” What I do is tell clients the truth, right over the phone. I call clients back, even at night or on weekends. Additionally, my staff is well-informed and very helpful if I am not in the office when you call.

FREE IN-DEPTH CONSULTATIONS - I gladly talk to new clients over the phone, for as long as you wish. I will answer every question that you have over the phone, or even in person if you prefer, for free. I will gladly explain all of your options, give you my honest opinion about what could happen to you and I even quote a fee and a flexible payment plan, right over the phone. I believe that an informed client is the best client. Again, if I was having legal problems, that is the way that I would want to be treated.
