Elliot was excellent! He took the time explained to to me why I do not need a defense lawyer at this time. Saving me $2900 that another firm wanted to charge me for a "prefiling service," which I later found out was simply them calling the investigator stating that we will not be talking to them unless charges are filed. He is an honest lawyer, with integrity But I hope I never need his service. But if there ever is a day that I do, I know who to call. read more

One of the best lawyers and over all person in general. Extremely detailed, hard working and diligent in what he does. Did a masterful job on my case. read more

As horrible as some situations can be there are truly only a certain type of person that can help you and calm you in devastating times. Not just bc they are an attorney, but this specific attorney heard me, explained to me all scenarios and shot for the best and succeeded. I genuinely had a great experience in a horrible situation. I high recommend Elliot at Zarabi law! read more

Elliot gets the job done and commutes with you during the process. He handled my dad's case; even now when he settled the case we can still reach out to him with questions and he takes the time to call and explain. read more

Elliot is such an efficient attorney. I went to at least 5 different attornies who told me my case was in limbo. I had a domestic battery 243(e) in 2016 and due to that, I lost my working permit (initial lawyer was incompetent and misadvised me). After 5 years of exhausting all my options, Elliot was able to reduce my charge immensely within less than a year. From the get go, he was optomistic, made a plan, and executed. Elliot was able to withdrawl my plea and reduce the charge to a 415 disturbing the peace. The court AND the DA gave him so much a hard time and he never gave up! I now have new opportunities thanks to Elliot's efficiency! His knowledge of the law is very vast and his connections really come a long way. That only emphasizes his character, knowledge and morals as an individual and an attorney. Thank you!! read more

Recently hired Mr. Elliot for a legal help and he is the absolute best ! Very Very firm with his work , very fast in response time and gets to work IMMEDIATELY. Very well connected lawyer that follows up with his word and really makes it happen. I was very satisfied with Mr. Elliot and i'm sure his future clients will feel the same way , I 100% recommended anyone to trust Elliot with your legal battles ! read more

Elliot Zarabi hands down is the best in town. I was fighting an Assault with deadly weapon possible GBI case where i was hit first but yet they wanted to charge me with a felony/strike for defending myself. Zarabi didn't stop until he made sure all the facts were brought to light and didn't stop fighting for me until I won. If I can give Zarabi more stars I would. I recommend Zarabi and his team. As they made sure my case was dismissed and my innocence's was proven. read more

One of the best Criminal Attorney in Los Angeles County. (Yes he does cases in multiple Counties). Great communication overall and follow ups are unbelievable. Friendly and Professional at the same time. Oh yes he gets his work done. Everything is prepared and planned out when it's court time. Eliot was able to dismiss multiple charges. He has communication with the DA and can easily make unbelievable plea deals with them based on my experience with this Attorney. 5 stars read more

I was involved in a huge accident around 6 months ago...a friend of mine referred me to Elliot. Right away he was on it. He got me a rental car right away, and didn't take any crap from what the other guilty party's insurance was trying to pull. And believe me when I tell you, if you do not have smart, competent attorney, the other insurance company will walk all over you, even if the other driver was the guilty party. What I liked the most about him to be honest, is how frequently he kept me informed every step of the way of what's happening. I've heard horror stories from others how they had trouble getting a hold of their lawyer during a case. Not with this guy...he constantly kept me in the loop. Even after the case had settled, and I had received my settlement check, he still checked up on me to see how I was doing. It's little things like that, I most appreciate. Elliot if you're reading this thanks again for everything. read more

I hired Elliot Zarabi and it was the best decision I made. All the other lawyers wasn't as good as him. He went from point A to B. Straight to the point. He gave me options and fought for me. I had to keep on extending the court date and fight because the D.A wasn't cooperating and doing his job. The story is the police raided my house and took over 25 grand and wouldn't give me my money unless I have my bank statement which I did. They was holding it after I got out of jail and I waited 2 months. I finally receive the check thanks to Zarabi for following up with the detective. Best lawyer ever even though after I paid him he still working. read more

Mr. Zarabi was generous enough to give a couple calls to the district's offices to confirm all the facts in just ten minutes after I walked in without an appointment. I had insisted that I pay purely out of gratitude but he refused and stated he's solely content on helping others. He's by far the most efficient and conscionable attorney I've ever met. read more

Mr. Zarabi is The BEST, HARDWORKING, DEPENDABLE, HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY AND RELIABLE LAWYER!!! This man is amazing at what he does, I saw and spoke to several lawyers before him and he was the only one that really answered all my questions, made me feel at ease with my case and was willing to help me. My intuition told me he would do the best he could to get the best possible results. He is also great at quickly replying to emails and calls unlike other Lawyers that take hours or days to get back at you. His office is very nice and the staff very friendly. Definitely don't hesitate and go see him. He was very QUICK and SUCCESSFUL at achieving the BEST RESULTS! I feel so lucky and blessed to have found a great Lawyer! Thank You Mr. Zarabi! you're a lifesaver and I will always be thankful!!! read more

Elliot has literally SAVED MY LIFE! As good as it gets is strictly an understatement... Elliot deserves the Noble Peace Prize and the Pulitzer for his good and noble deeds through a heavy social system. Sometimes things can be alleged where either party has committed a wrongdoing, but our justice system can sometimes be so... fickle at best. During the hard and miserable times I had to endure Elliot has been there to cheer me up, cheer me on, and guide me through it all. Ultimately, Elliot has made the entire process smooth, reassuring, and quick to resolve even though I should have been drowning in stress and spiritual disaster-he was there every step of the way... EXCELLENT professional, SUPERB Lawyer, and a truly CARING individual. AAA+ -David L. read more

The man!!! So knowledgeable, felt very safe in his hands and he was always very easy to get ahold of. The rest of the office is really nice and helpful as well :) read more

This man saved my life. My crimes were due to a bad heroin addiction and I was looking at a considerable prison sentence. I had prior convictions for the same felonies and a violent strike prior as well and he was able to finesse me into a rehab/ joint suspension/ probation deal and thanks solely to Elliot I've completed successfully and am now drug free and actually have a great paying fulfilling job working in drug treatment helping other addicts. Thanks big time Elliot!! (If I could give you 6 stars I would.) read more

I had the pleasure working with Elliot , and surprisingly I can say he has to be the most honest lawyer I've ever meet . I recommend everyone who's looking for a legit lawyer to go to him . read more

Elliot and his staff represented my brother for a wrongful harassment case. It was a difficult time for our family and he was so comforting and helped us along process. He made the court process easy as well and was very comfortable in court on how to deal with the courts and judge. We had to go back as dealt times and him and his associates were always available. We relly appreciate his professionalism and level of care and knowledge. He got the case dropped within very quickly. His rates are also reasonable. We can't thank him enough. I would defiantly recommend him for any court or law needs. read more

I don't often write reviews but I wanted to take time to write about my experience with Elliot. Going into my case I had no idea what to expect. Elliot walked me through the process as best he could and communicated the possibilities all the way through my case. Elliot was referred to me from a friend and it was one of the best referrals I have ever had. He is a consummate professional and takes the time to completely understand your case. My case could've gone a totally different way but I'm grateful for his guidance through the whole process. Thank you Elliot for helping me through this difficult process and always being available for any questions I had. read more

Elliot Zarabi is truly a rock star. Hes gotten me out of the craziest case. He truly is a clutch thinker and always thinking outside of the box. I slent 2 weeks in court with him (what i was convicted for was real bad) and it was really a pleasure to watch him in action. It was so intense and he didnt break under pressure. I definitely recommend him! read more

Rude, no class, the absolute worst customer service i have ever experienced. You can tell he thinks he's some big shot or something. He must make a lot of money to be able to treat potential clients like crap. Save your money and your time and give your business to someone who wants it. Im sorry I wasted you time calling in with my silly question read more

If you are looking for a good lawyer, Elliot Zarabi is not the guy you're looking for. If you want a con artist that will do and say whatever it takes to get your money, then hire him. First of all, he is extremely professional in consultations and phone conversations which are all a facade that he is hard at work to help you in your case. He thinks he is a master manipulator and will be on top of his game to provide you with documents and all you need to set court dates and to stave off arrests or trouble with the DMV at first. He will tell you what you want to hear and misinform you of your rights and they to pursuade you to take a "deal" especially because he has no trial experience and performs poorly in front of a judge. He showed up to my court appointments unprepared and plead me out guilty as if I had no other choice in a trial by judge when I specifically told him I wanted a trial by jury. Don't let his office or expensive suits fool you, he is a crook that is lazy and inexperienced in court. He was disrespectful in court, acted like a big shot and spent much of his time on his cell phone fielding other calls and trying to reel in other unsuspecting victims/clients. He was very arrogant and rude during court proceedings and I was in complete shock how he handled my case. I know 100% that I lost my case due to his behavior and mishandling of the facts and my case. He puts on a good face until when you really need him and when it counts, and that's in court. He was on his cell phone in the bull pen, used foul language in front of judges clerk, bailiff and staff and tried to crack disrespectful jokes and crude sexual innuendos thinking that that type of behavior is okay in court. I had to sue to get a refund of all that was paid to him. I now have a record because he had no idea what he was doing in court and it showed. Do not hire this man. I thought he cared about his clients until he showed me red flags along the way and I ignored my intuition. He will try to coax you to hire him through persuasion and "acting" like he cares. He even made the statement to me in his office once, "I normally don't care about my other clients, but you make it easy to work for." That says it all right there. This is beyond losing a case, this is the truth and if I can save someone else from the agony and stress of paying him thousands for a legal ponzi scheme where he pretends he's hard at work for you, when his assistants drum up most of the paperwork and then he sells you out in court. I had no prior history and the court provided no evidence against me proving that I was guilty. It was literally the LAPD and judge against his arrogant and unprepared tactics. He did not stand a chance. Hire someone experienced with a great track record. This guy needs to back to being a used luxury car salesman. Hopefully this critique will make him step his game up and help someone else. Elliot Zarabi is a joke. read more

I was lost to say the least and I knew I had to stay on top of my case by getting an attorney. I searched and spent many many hours calling so many attorneys for representation... But it was more than that I was seeking... I was seeking a true and just hearted guidance through this. I must have gone through the entire California directory of attorneys trying to find Somone whom I felt comfortable to help me. A lot of them laughed at me, said , "sir you're ultimately screwed and it's not worth taking your case." Then I had the con artists who operated out of their own car who made promises that I know they couldn't keep. No one wanted to help me... And if they did they were really Pompous and money hungry which made them extremely expensive or they had no experience at all and were fake... I had almost lost all hope until I found Elliot Zarabi. This man was real... He personally spoke to me for free and gave me advice, told me the true facts and my options but did it with sincerity and care. He went above and beyond to help me grasp on to my situation and better understand everything that would and can happen in my situation. He gave me not only his professional opinion and time but also his sincere personal empathy, really listened and made me feel like he truly cared for me. Not only as a human being but even on a personal level. He did all this without me spending a dime. Elliot did all this with an open heart even though he knew I could have picked someone else. I didn't feel scammed or felt pressured in any way shape or form to go with him. He told me what he could do for me and what his costs were, however His main concern was for my emotional and mental state and he wanted to help regardless if I picked him or not. I did continue to call others just so that I could have some more security that I did get the right representation and they all failed me. I began to research more about Elliot and his back ground and it all put me at ease that he was the right guy for the job. To say the absolute least but as full heartedly sincere to anyone reading this... Elliot is an amazing person. He is a professional and worked really hard not only for my case, he kept me calm and sane. I am a very emotional and anxious person. I had thousands of worries, questions, concerns and many moments where I broke down. Elliot answered everything and kept me together. It's embarrassing to say that he did more than just be a court attorney, he was also kind of a shrink as well. A DAMN GOOD ONE! Elliot cost me $2500.00 in which I was able to make monthly payments. He handled my case with a strong fist and did as best as he could to get the very best outcome. No jail time, no hidden fees, no run around or lies. I owe a lot to Elliot for what he's done for me. During my hard time through it all he wasn't just an attorney, he became a sincere friend that I can't thank more than enough. I can hold my head up high and own up to my mistake because I learned from my mistake and got through it! I learned so much from Elliot about key values of life, the importance of what we have in life and what we take for granted as well as making smarter decisions. Elliot showed me the light at the end of the tunnel and I made it!! even though I truly thought it was going to end badly. If I of all people can get through it, with Elliot so can you. He took care of all the paper work, court calls, negotiating with the DA and judge, evidence, EVERYTHING! He did it all so that I could just worry about getting my life back together. I will never EVER go through a mistake like that again. I am not a perfect person and even though this was tough to handle, I became a better person because of it. Elliot Zarabi, full heartedly thank you so much for fighting for me and for helping me get through it all! read more

I love how it took this fraud three months to grow a sack and even try and deny his shortcomings. Look, you and I both know the truth. Your ego can't get over the fact that you actually have several bad Yelp reviews based on your lack of moral ethics and professional skill in your field. It is no ones fault but your own that your self hatred and wrong career choice has you robbing Peter to pay Paul. LA is a small town. If you're a great lawyer, your work would stand on its own. I am an excellent judge of character and you have a bad reputation in court and with other lawyers. No amount of fake Yelp reviews that you have managed to conjure up to boost your star rating is going to change the truth. Get real. You need to rethink your career choice. You are a bad liar and from the sound of it, a shitty lawyer that has to offer a Yelp deal to recruit victims. Lame! read more

First of all, thank you! I have been using Mr Zarabi for over a year now, he is a lawyer that actually cares. With my case being unexpectedly complicated, he has been there through every bump in the road. Elliott has gone above and beyond more than any lawyer should have to. If it wasn't for his creative thinking and assertiveness I would most likely be locked up right now. I highly suggest that if you have done something stupid, you should have Mr Zarabi represent you! read more

Thoroughly impressed by Elliot's work on my case. I found Elliot through a friend who had used him for his DUI case. My friend is a pretty picky guy, so the fact that he said he trusted Elliot was enough to push me into giving him a call. I went in for my free consultation to his office in downtown LA. His secretary led me to his office and the moment I sat down, we were down to business. He took down my information and began making phone calls on the spot. LAPD detectives are difficult to get ahold of to say the least but Elliot cleverly used a couple tactics to finally get on the phone with someone. That was pretty impressive considering none of the other lawyers I had spoken to had been able to get ahold of anyone. He scribbled down some information from the conversation, found out what department my case had gone to, found out where my case file was currently being reviewed, and immediately we got to it. The guy was able to tell me who was in charge of what department within the court system, went through scenarios A-Z, and went straight into strategy. He kept assuring me everything would be fine. I didn't have high hopes but I let him take over from that point on. Every week he was sending me updates on my case. Pretty soon, the list of possible scenarios had decreased and within 3 weeks, he got my case dismissed. He had told me there would be a small chance of dismissal but he had also prepped me for the worst so I was pretty shocked at the outcome. Getting this case dismissed saved me THOUSANDS in legal fees. He nipped it at the bud and that was the end of it. I didn't have to make constant phone calls to court. He pretty much handled every small detail of the case. Not going to lie- the hard part is waiting and trusting but it was worth it. Either way, Elliot knows what he's talking about and he isn't joking when he says he's got strategy for each and every case. Hassle-free experience. Great legal advice. I couldn't ask for more. 5 stars all the way. read more

Mr. Elliot is really professional Criminal defense attorney. Highly recommend. I had great experience hiring mr. Elliot to defend me in criminal case against me. I'm really thankful to mr. Elliot, that my case got dissmissed. Very understanding attorney I had great experience, thank you for all your help mr. Elliot. You are awesome! read more

Mr. Zarabi is a very hard worker . He never gave up on my case and even when I gave up hope, he continued and got me a favorable outcome, one that I did not think was possible. He was always available and when he didn't pick up himself, he would always call me back in a timely matter, even on weekends. I highly recommend him. read more

Mr. Zarabi is a live saver! He kept me out of prison in multiple felony charges and gave me a chance to reduce it. He is pretty cool in the court and it's a relief to see him. If you are in trouble and looking for an defense attorney, don't hesitate, give him a call and discuss it with him. read more

Elliot has been a pleasure to work with. He is very communicative/responsive as well as accessible. I was speaking with 3 different attorneys including Elliot before deciding to give Elliot my business. As any other individual, I was a bit skeptical about Elliot's ability to successfully assist me with my case, which was a DUI. To make a long story short, I have recently spoken to several individuals who have gotten a DUI and hired an Attorney as well. Based on my conversations, everyone I spoke with along with myself, came to the conclusion that I did make the right choice in hiring Elliot. My BAC was .22, though it was my first DUI, my case was pretty severe compared to others I heard of and thanks to Elliot, I received the least amount of penalties. So if you are looking for a DUI Attorney, you will not regret going with Elliot. read more

To my dismay I found out I had a four month old warrant for failure to pay on a third DUI offense. Here I was three classes away from my exit interview for my 18 month program and thinking all was fine. Boy was I scared. The thought of going back before the judge to attempt to recall a warrant for unknowingly violating the terms of my probation literally made me dizzy. I did not know where to turn. As a single mother with no income and no drivers license, I had little to offer the court if I went in myself.  Spending two nights freaking out, not sleeping and crying non stop was not the answer. So I went online to see if I could get a free consultation from someone on this matter, at least. Mr Zarabi was the first and only attorney to answer. Not only did he answer my initial cry for help and direction, he continued to answer my emails day and night for the next couple of days. After weighing my limited options on how to resolve this matter and a $500 loan later, I was able to retain Mr Zarabi to represent me in fixing this mess. He was honest with me about all possible outcomes. He listened carefully to my side of things and accepted all proof of what I was saying. He repeatedly ensured me things would be ok.  Three days later, Mr Zarabi went to recall my warrant. Much to my pleasant surprise, he called shortly after court began and said I was "good to go"! Whew!! What an amazing feeling. He not only fixed the issue but made sure I wasn't in a position to further fail with the court. Not only that, I personally did not have to go before the judge.  Mr Zarabi, is truly a Godsend. He was fast, efficient and thorough. He is fair and honest. All of these things should be characteristics of a great attorney anyway. But on top of displaying these characteristics, Mr Zarabi is kind and compassionate. I can't say enough that I am more than grateful. There are no words to describe the feeling of knowing things really are ok. I am truly blessed I found this attorney and HIGHLY recommend Mr. Elliot Zarabi to anyone who seeks legal counsel. He will listen, fight and truly ensure that you receive the most fair outcome possible. Thank you Elliot! read more

If you're looking for an amazing lawyer to handle your case then look no further. Elliot helped me handle a pretty sticky situation. Three consecutive DUI's within the span of 2 years. Talk about not learning my lesson! After assuring me he would do the best he could to keep me employed and out of prison he did just that. He delivered and managed to keep me out of trouble. The great thing about Elliot is that he is a straight shooter, a real "No BS" type of guy that will promise you only what is feasible. He never let me down in the time he took on my cases, I barely even saw the inside of a courthouse until sentencing. I'm now finishing up my time on house arrest instead of prison. Don't go wasting your time on some half-baked lawyer that says there's no chance. If you're going to spend your hard earned money invest in a dedicated lawyer who knows his stuff. Thank you Elliot for getting me through this tough period of my life! read more

Igal: I hired Mr. Zarabi to take care of a case for me. It was a simple driving on a suspended license ticket, so I thought! When I got to court the court initially wanted to give me 3 years of probation, a fine of almost $1,500 and 2 points on my record. I simply made a mistake and they wanted to throw the book on me. After court I called Mr. Zarabi and he went over the case with me. I brought him all my paperwork and he went into court a second and third time. By the third time, he was able to get me an infraction with no probation, minimal fine and no points. I went to court with him every time, and this guys knew everyone, the judge, the prosecutor, even the bailiffs, all of which had the most respect for him. THIS GUYS IS DEFINITELY YOUR GUY! read more

Best lawyer hands down! I had a felony and misdemeanor that were 7 years old and I didn't even know about it until 6 1/2 years later because I moved out of state. The only reason I found out I had a warrant is because a police officer told me when I got pulled over for speeding that I had an outstanding warrant in Los Angeles. I was referred to Elliot by a close friend and needless to say, even though I had to fly back to Los Angeles twice to appear in court for the charges, Elliot got the charges totally dismissed and I am able to live my life happy and free again! Thanks Elliot, you are the best! read more

In July 2015 I was charged with a DUI and spent some time looking for an attorney. I kept finding all these attorneys who wouldn't take the time to see me, they just wanted money. Elliot Zarabi was the 6th DUI attorney I spoke with but the only one offered a face to face consultation. It was such a relief once we met! So fab to have someone on my team take a genuine interest and make an effort to walk me through the entire process step by step. Totally hoping I won't be charged with anything else in the future but if I am, Elliot, save me! read more

Always have a great conversation with my attorney. He never promised anything to me, except that he would work his ass off for me, which he did! After months of working on my case and keeping me informed, he was able to secure a dismisal of my dui for me. I cannot thank him enough! read more

I want to take this time to thank Elliot Zarabi Law Firm for helping out me and my son in not one case but two, he was always there, he always gave us respect and he was honest. He kept us hopeful and positive and the outcome of my sons cases was amazing considering what he was going through he came out unscathed and we have Elliot personally to thank! I wish him and his family the best holiday ever, and many blessed years to come! read more

My husband found Mr. Zarabi and we decided to meet with him for a consultation. We found that he was not only professional, but explained to us all possibilities of my husbands case. He reassured us that everything was going to be okay and called us to walk us through every step. As a result of all his continuous efforts he was able to reduce my husbands DUI to a wet reckless. We appreciate everything he did for us and feel confident to continue working with him in the near future. read more
