Fighting for Equality Every Step of the Way

The name Ellwanger has been synonymous with fighting for justice since the 1950s.

From Rev. Joe Ellwanger (Jay’s uncle), a pastor who marched for Civil Rights and was sent by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to urge LBJ to pass the Voting Rights Act.

To David Ellwanger (Jay’s father), a lawyer who ran for the Alabama State Senate seat in Selma to unseat a staunch segregationist.

To Jay Ellwanger, who today is carrying on the family tradition and is ready to fight for you every step of the way.

Yes, I want my equal rights!

Client testimonial

“Jay and his team went above and beyond bringing my family justice when I was fired from my career at 5 months pregnant. I really wasn’t sure I even had a case and beat myself up for a little while thinking I had done something horribly wrong. After talking about the situation, Taylor and Jay helped me accept that what happened to me and my family during what was supposed to be such a beautiful time was, in fact, incredibly wrong. They were able to rectify the extreme loss I suffered by losing my income, healthcare, and the progress I had worked so hard to achieve in my career.

 

Without Jay and his team, it’s hard to say where we would be right now.

 

My family has been able to move on and pick up the pieces humbly because of our experience with the Ellwanger team. We will always remember the honest, good-hearted people that showed us true compassion during the most important part of our family’s future.”

S. Long,
Client
“Unfortunately, I was involved in a sexual harassment incident at my workplace. After dealing with the local “good ‘ol boys”, I felt like I had no support or confidence in the system to do the right thing. I had many individuals, including lawyers, inform me that “no one would touch this case” since one of the individuals involved was a local politician. However, I was fortunate to receive Jay’s phone number through a mutual acquaintance. Immediately, Jay and Vas reviewed my case and gave me a call. I felt comfortable throughout the entire process with Jay, Vas, and all their colleagues that collaborated.

I have never been associated with any type of legal matter. Jay was patient with all my questions regarding “the process” of going through the EEOC. Vas kept me informed as each step was completed. In the end, I felt like I had gained two friends that I could trust. This whole process was truly sincere. It was never about money for me or them; it was about doing the right thing against individuals that think they can run over “the little folks”.

When I came home from the mediation, my husband stated that he “had finally got his wife back”. I was able to stand up for myself and move past this incident. I have no regrets and owe getting my happy life back to Jay and Vas!!!”
