Carmichael Ellis & Brock, PLLC

Yancey Ellis and his team were fantastic to work with - five stars all around. From the initial consultation through the final resolution, I would strongly recommend the team at Carmichael Ellis & Brock to provide top of the line legal representation.

Yancey Ellis is the real deal. Professional in every respect. I agree with all previous 5 star reviews.

Zach Deubler, of Carmichael Ellis & Brock, represented me on a significant traffic citation that would likely have cost me significantly in both fines and reputation. As a result of his diligence and understanding of the charges, the courts, as well as his recommendations to me, I was exonerated on the most egregious charges and left with a simple fine and no reputational damage. Further, Zach kept me completely informed throughout the process which really alleviated my stress over what may or may not happen to. I would absolutely have Zach represent me in the future should I need it and I would absolutely recommend him to any friend or colleague that may find themselves in need.

We are incredibly grateful to Carmichael Ellis & Brock for their swift and adept legal guidance. Their team provided exemplary assistance, navigating a complex issue with professionalism and expertise. Thanks to their expert support, our lives have taken a much more positive direction than we could have imagined. We highly recommend Carmichael Ellis & Brock to anyone seeking outstanding legal representation and peace of mind.

Hiring Carmichael Ellis & Brock (Yancey Ellis) was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made for my family’s legal issue. He is by far the most passionate lawyer I’ve ever encountered — zealous, aggressive when needed, and fully dedicated to giving us the strongest defense possible. From start to finish, it was clear that he cared deeply about his craft, his profession, and providing us with the absolute best representation. What stood out just as much was the respect he commanded in the courtroom. Even bail bondsmen and court clerks recognized him and noted how he consistently makes prosecutors work hard. That gave me incredible confidence in knowing we had the right person on our side. To this day, I remain blown away by his skill, humility, and thoughtfulness. I only hope he’ll still be available if we ever need his services again — though I wouldn’t be surprised to see him rise to even higher levels in his career, which would be well deserved. I highly recommend Yancey Ellis without hesitation.

Zach represented me in a Fairfax County case. I could not have been happier with his zealous and thoughtful representation. I am not an easy client and Zach was excellent at communicating with me about my case and strongest strategies to meet my goals. I would absolutely hire Zach again and I recommend him when asked for referrals. Zach is an honest, communicative, smart, and effective attorney. No one can guarantee any case outcome, but Zach will be up front with you about possibilities and advocate for you in your case. Zach is worth more than every penny charged; and I also happened to be pleased with my case outcome thanks to Zach’s expertise and experience. Highly recommend.

Yancey was thoroughly prepared, thoughtful, and took a much-appreciated direct and clear approach to communication. He provided excellent representation, and the family developed a great deal of trust in his expertise. The case was emotional, and it was meaningful and reassuring for the family to have an ally that they could trust to provide clear and factual information in a respectful way to explain what was happening and what to expect. Thank you!

They took my case when no one else would, and got a settlement that worked for everyone.

Ms. Carmichael was awesome!!!! She handled everything very professionally. If I ever need an attorney again , I'll definitely be contacting her. Thank you so much fir everything!!!!

This was the first time in my life I had a run in with the law, luckily it was an accident and Yancey was an amazing attorney who got the best outcome possible for me. His prior military service was a huge factor for me when I went looking for an attorney, being an active duty member myself, and along with his responsive and very professional nature, I would 100% recommend him and his firm to anyone.

He is a very good lawyer and advocate in accident cases. He defended my grandson in court.

Yancey Ellis took care of me through the most difficult time in my not so easy life. You will be as happy as you can be in a very tough spot if you chose Yancey to defend you.

Yancey and Zach are phenomenal attorneys and I couldn't be more pleased with the way that they handled my case. They were true professionals from the start, and treated me with respect and compassion throughout the whole scary and uncertain process. They made themselves available to answer any questions I had or to walk me through any concerns that I brought up. I felt comfortable in all of my interactions with them and they kept me up to speed on all things legal related to my case. Although I would not wish my experience on anyone, I will forever be grateful to Yancey Ellis and Zach Deubler for getting me through the most traumatic experience of my life. I am incredibly thankful for the professionalism and care they showed not only me, but my family as well. They are the best of the best!

Zach Deubler is great at what he does, communicates throughout the process, and is clearly very experienced. Highly recommend.

Excellent service in every respect! Yancee Ellis, who handled my case, not only quickly understood the facts of the case from my descriptions, he also researched and uncovered additional facts on line, and from his sources, and developed winning defense arguments at the Preliminary Hearing, resulting in an extraordinarily rare, "No Probable Cause" outcome bringing my case to a successful conclusion. I hearty recommend him, and the firm for anyone needing good, through legal council.

Yancey Ellis and Jessica Carmichael were fantastic! They both were extremely knowledgeable and professional. It was clear that they had the experience needed for our families needs. As an added benefit, they are a military friendly practice and fully understand that community. We couldn't be more happy with their representation. Thank you!

Yancey Ellis is a complete professional and stellar lawyer! He guided me through the full process in detail and ensured that I was comfortable with every decision for a traffic violation trial. He understands both military and civil aspects which is a crucial aspect in the capital area. I highly recommend Mr. Yancey Ellis.

We live out of state, and we needed an attorney to help us once I was able to get my brother in treatment and of sound mind. We picked this firm because of the stellar reviews. Even being out of state, we felt like the communication was as smooth as it could be. They were able to get the charges dropped altogether for a psychosis mental health event from last year. My brother had never had a criminal record and is now stable with treatment. A charge like this would have likely caused him to lose his job. It was the best outcome we could have hoped for. Thanks for the compassion and understanding on such a sensitive case for us Edit: forgot to mention.. we had Yancey and it was a great overall experience
