Benjamin is an excellent attorney and I give him the highest recommendation. I have seen his ability to analyze legal issues and try cases in person. We have competed together in courtrooms and in sports and his ability to relate to teammates and clients while performing at an extremely high level is what makes Benjamin a unique attorney adaptable to many cases.

Benjamin is one of the best attorneys I know. I have personally tried many cases with him, and he is one of the best trial lawyers I've ever seen. He tries a case with passion, and gives 110% effort for his clients. Benjamin is also a really nice and compassionate attorney. He is able to relate to his clients, and I know he works hard because he really cares about them. I cannot give a higher recommendation than I am for Benjamin! View More
