Elad has litigated landmark cases in Missouri. In 2021, Elad won a major decision at Missouri's Supreme Court to protect Missouri's Sunshine Law, the law that permits Missourians to attend public meetings and access public records. Elad litigated that Sunshine Law case from trial to appeal.

​

Later that same year, Elad defended a whistleblower who, alongside a journalist, was persecuted by the government for revealing a major cybersecurity flaw. Elad's representation eventually ended in the termination of the threat of political prosecution.

​

Since 2017, Elad has litigated major Section 1983 federal cases against St. Louis City and several officials for violating residents' civil liberties. The first case involved a teenager who witnessed a fight, cooperated with police, and, after giving a statement without having a lawyer, was arrested and spent 7 months in jail awaiting trial for a crime she didn't commit, including over two weeks in jail after charges against her were dismissed. Elad uncovered the illegal jailing practice and has successfully litigated several of these cases to end it.

​

In 2024, Elad ran for Attorney General of Missouri to sue scammers, prosecute corruption, protect families, and end puppy mills. His campaign inspired thousands of Missourians to volunteer. His dog, Liberty Belle, who was rescued from a puppy mill, was much more popular than him.

 

Elad served as an Assistant Attorney General until the end of 2016 where he represented Missourians in courts throughout the state and was in charge of one of Missouri's busiest litigation dockets. He was a national champion trial advocate at Washington University School of Law, a community service award winner at Duke University, and a very bad but still state champion winning football player at Clayton High School.

 

Elad lives in St. Louis with his wife, Tasha, and their many dogs. He serves on boards focused on education and community development.
