Elena A. Belov is Of Counsel at the Almeida Law Group.
Elena is an experienced litigator who began her legal career at Milbank LLP, one of the nation’s top law firms. While there, in addition to sharpening her advocacy skills on complex commercial litigations, she maintained an active pro bono practice focusing on civil rights.
Elena’s belief in justice for all led her to commit her practice for over a decade to environmental work and public service, before pivoting her passion to fight for wronged plaintiffs. She had the honor of clerking for Judge Cynthia M. Rufe in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, learning first-hand the inner workings of the federal judicial system. Elena has also taught and practiced environmental law on behalf of pro bono clients at the University of Washington School of Law, and supported Native Alaskan Tribes in their efforts to protect Arctic ecosystems. Elena has worked with an amazingly wide range of clients, from big banks and insurance companies to non-governmental organizations and people from all walks of life. She treats each client as an individual who deserves utmost respect and attention.
Elena is admitted to the New York State Bar, as well as the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.
At the Almeida Law Group, Elena prides herself on investigating consumer rights violations and fighting companies that take advantage of people, whether it’s through deceptive advertising, selling defective products, or disregarding user privacy.
