Dedicated and trustworthy

Ben was referred to me to advice on my moderately complicated tenant-landlord case. I am thoroughly satisfied with his service and he went above and beyond in helping out. Despite the fact that I ultimately did not hire him due to my current financial situation, he genuinely cared and prepared me wit...h the knowledge I need to succeed in court. I strongly recommend him!

Auto Accident 2012

Our case was transferred to Ben Simmons last year for a hit and run accident that my husband and I were involved in. He stayed on top of the case and kept us well informed of any changes that were happening. Any time we made a phone call to him he returned the call with an update on the case. He foll...owed up with the opposing council so that we knew where the case was going at all times. We were more than please with how professional he was at all times and would recommend him to anyone.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
