Summary: Consider the nonlinear elliptic equation $${\cal A}(u)+H(x,u,Du)=f(x)- \text{div} g(x) \tag E $$ where ${\cal A}(u)=-\text{div}(a(x,u,Du))+a\sb 0(x,u,Du)$ is a Leray-Lions operator defined on $W\sb 0\sp{1,p}(\Omega)$ with $a\sb 0(x,s,\xi)s\ge\alpha\sb 0\vert s\vert\sp p$, $\alpha\sb 0>0$, and where $H$ is a first-order term satisfying $\vert H(x,s,\xi)\vert\le C\sb 0+C\sb 1\vert\xi\vert\sp p$. The main goal of this paper is to prove an $L\sp \infty$ estimate for the bounded solutions of (E) when $f$ belongs to $L\sp q(\Omega)$ and $g$ belongs to $(L\sp r(\Omega))\sp N$ with $r=p'q$ and $\max(1,N/p)<q\le+\infty$. In view of the method and results developed in the author's previous work, this implies the existence of a solution for equation (E).
