Horrible

Garret Benner is not a good lawyer. At least for custody cases. My mother paid Mr. Benner $1,500 to spend a total of 3 to 4 hours with me including one PFA hearing and one custody conference. Not only did he NOT put up a fight after I initially sought custodyou of my kids he had the nerve to tell me ...I'm lucky I'm getting what I am getting. He put me so far in a hole that I could not get out of till this point. Made agreements that were not in the best interest of my kids or myself. My mother and I were wrong to give this man a chance or even pay him. But we live and we learn. Good luck trying to contact him during a case

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED! Stay far away from this guy!

We retained Garrett to be our attorney after a bus driver hit our son ON VIDEO. Mr. Benner dragged the case out telling us that the school district was settling and he was negotiating with the school attorney. He never returned emails or phone calls even when we made an appointment with his secretary... to have a phone conference. Once the case was past the statute of limitations for filing a suit against the school district, he let us know that the district no longer wanted to settle. Big surprise. And here's the kicker! He never told us that his partner's brother was married to the principal of the middle school that our son attended in the district that we're suing! Can anyone spell "CONFLICT OF INTEREST"? Needless to say, we've moved onto another attorney. Word to the wise, "Dont't use this guy! A deceitful man and a complete waste of time".

Horrible

Please stay away from this guy. I retained Mr.Benner to do my divorce and it has been a nightmare since day one. He never answers calls or emails never returns calls or emails simply put you can never get a hold of this guy. Every time you call the office you get his secretary saying that he's not a...vailable or in a meeting. There aren't that many meetings in the world! Mr. Benner is not aggressive at all, and does not seem knowledgeable in his field at all. I felt like I had no representation I am currently seeking a new attorney to represent me because if I stay with this guy I will get railroaded and I told him that face-to-face!!! Take my advice and go elsewhere

Best DUI lawyer in the Lehigh Valley area.

Absolutely the best money ever spent. I received a DUI, highest rate first offense, and a driving without a license early last year. This has been a very scary time for me, as I am not from the area and have had nothing but grief result from this incident. Somehow Mr. Benner pulled through and got m...e a plea bargain that reduced and dismissed my charges. I can safely say that he is well worth the money and I would recommend him to anyone.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
