Gabrielle B. February 24, 2023
He is an ambulance chaser - no honest. I saved Ben for last. I gave him 22 pictures of an undamaged apartment door as evidence before my pretrial date. I had five court appearances. I kept asking him to show the Judge my evidence. Never got a straight answer. When Ben told me that my Judge, Walter Rivera got it wrong I decided to fire Ben. The Judge never knew about the picture evidence. A month before, I contacted another lawyer to ask why Ben would not want to end this court case. I was told Ben was probably holding out for the actual trial where Ben would receive a percentage of what the court would award me for framing, false arrest, false imprisonment, denying me legal counsel, and committing perjury against me by the Greenburgh NY Police. When I attempted to get my evidence back, Ben took the pictures hostage. Ben would not give them back unless I told him if he would be my lawyer going forward. My new professional lawyer told him to FedEx the evidence to him. Instead, Ben wanted to hand-deliver the evidence to him. My new lawyer never consulted with me about this exchange method. I have since found out that Ben had some not-so-nice things to say about me to my new lawyer. I noticed a change in his behavior toward me. Never found out what Ben told him, but the tension was so there I had to settle the case without any vindication or payment of my $12,488 in legal fees. I would say this classifies Ben as an “Ambulance Chasing Buffoon”.
