Dave Eltringham is a seasoned personal injury attorney and the founder and CEO of ELG Injury Lawyers, a firm known for client-centered advocacy, deep trial expertise, and a health-first approach to personal injury representation. Background & EducationHere’s the thing about Dave: he didn’t stumble into law – he built his career on both rigorous legal training and lived experience. Undergraduate degree from the University of Southern California.Juris Doctor (J.D.) from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Yeshiva University in New York City.Licensed to practice in multiple jurisdictions, including Florida, New York, and Oregon.This foundation gave him technical expertise and an early recognition: the law has power only if it’s applied with clarity, integrity, and an eye toward real-world impact. Professional Journey & PhilosophyDave’s path is distinctive because it blends professional skill with personal insight. He’s not just someone who studies injury law; he’s someone who’s lived it. A severe personal injury early in his life changed his perspective, sharpening his understanding of what victims really endure physically, emotionally, and financially. This matters because many lawyers understand injury abstractly. Dave learned it in the trenches. That experience isn’t a soundbite; it’s the lens through which he builds cases, coaches his team, and defines the firm’s culture.
