contents In this paper we study a general class of nonlinear elliptic problems in divergence form. First, we prove that the solutions to these problems satisfy a convexity property when the given domain is strictly convex. Then, making use of this convexity property, we develop some minimum principles for an appropriate $P$-function, in the sense of L.~E.~Payne. Finally, this new minimum principle is applied to find a priori estimates for the solutions, in terms of the mean curvature of the boundary of the underlying domain.
