attorneys in the Southern Tier of New York. The referral took me 100 miles from home to Syracuse to meet with Kristen's firm.

It was apparent that if I needed to take my case to court I wanted th...is lady heading up my legal team. Her uncompromising dedication to my case, continual contact to keep me informed and confidence in the eventual outcome of my case assures me continually that I chose the best attorney possible.

Kristen has done a excellent job with my on going case. The case is still not settled but she continues to give a 110% effort towards a final settlement. She has kept me very well informed on the progress of the case that has been in litigation for 2 years now. I would highly recommend her to any one... looking for a attorney. She has preformed as a true professional.

Ms Benson was hired to represent our company in a discrimination lawsuit that had no merit. The Plaintiff claimed Age and Race Discrimination and decided to represent herself throughout the legal process. The Plaintiff made several inaccurate statements to the judge, failed to appear on several occa...sions and failed to provide documentation to Ms. Benson within two separate court appointed time frames. Many times I felt the judge/courts should have thrown out the case due to the Plaintiff's sloppy, unprofessional attempts at stringing the case along in hopes that we would just give up and settle. In fact I questioned Ms. Benson as to why she wasn't screaming at the judge to throw out the case on more than one occasion. Ms. Benson advised us to stay the course and let our case stand on it's own merit. She stated that its possible the judge was extending additional time frames and leeway to the Plaintiff due to her representing herself. We were very pleased with how Ms. Benson handled the cross examination portion of the Plaintiff's testimony and in the end, after three (3) weak appeals allowed to the Plaintiff, our company prevailed. We were completely satisfied with the respect Ms. Benson showed to our staff throughout the process, and we recommend Ms. Benson without reservation.
