Extremely Helpful -- HIGHLY Recommended

Dealing with any type of legal matter can consume and stress you out beyond normal daily life. Mr. Benowitz was able to alleviate as much of that as possible by guiding me through the process with an encouraging hand. My case, while straightforward carried some severe penalties and Mr. Benowitz wor...ked aggressively to eliminate the most severe penalties I was facing which was truly a lifesaver for me. Mr. Benowitz clearly understood my situation and worked hard to accomplish my number one stated goal and I couldn't be happier with his counsel, encouragement and experienced guidance during this stressful situation. Mr. Benowitz looked at the case not only from the legal perspective from the human side as well, which can comfort anyone dealing with a legal issue. Mr. Benowitz stood in my stead on a number of occasions and helped explain possible outcomes and next steps as things unfolded all while keeping my goals and needs in mind and never losing sight of my main goal. While I hope my path never crosses with Mr. Benowitz because I find myself in this kind of situation again, I would highly recommend Mr. Benowitz and his practice for all your legal needs.

Great lawyer

I was arrested for misdemeanor theft while visiting DC earlier this year. I found David Benowitz through a google search and called his 24 hour office number on a Sunday afternoon. Within 20 minutes David Benowitz called me to start discussing my case. Since i lived in another state, Mr Benowitz t...ook great care in making sure i had all the way to get in touch with him and that i felt comfortable with my defense. While David could not get all my charges dropped before my arraignment he assured me that he would continue to talk with the State Attorney's office to either drop the charges or to get a deferred prosecution agreement. David went out of his way to guide me around the courthouse to do all the requirements after my hearing. I asked David why he was doing this since he was a Partner in his law firm and he told it was his pleasure to help. David called me six days before my court hearing and told me that all my charges had been dropped. I would recommend David to anyone who needs a great lawyer in the DC area. Since i live out of state and don't know anyone in the DC area, David helped put my mind at ease throughout this extremely stressful situation. He also made me feel as if I was his only client while talking with me through out this entire process.

Legal Assistance

I got into the legal troubles in February and I was referred to Benowitz & Price for legal counseling and assistance. My lawyer, Dave Benowitz met with me and explained the good and bad of my case. He never sugar coated any details with me but kept it all truthful and professional about my situation.... I appeared in court with one of his trusted lawyers when he couldn't attend who also represented me in a professional and accurate manner. When it was time for me to appear recently before the judge, Mr. Benowitz was able to reduce my consequences down and also was offered the ultimatum of having everything thrown out (wipe record clean) if I complete my classes and pay fines within a year of the courts decisions. I was so relieved by this decision and I appreciate Mr. Benowitz and his team on a job well done and for handling my case in a production manner. I highly suggest Benowitz & Price to ANYONE who needs legal assistance in anything you are going through.

Forever thankful to David Benowitz.

I can't say enough positive remarks about David Benowitz. I had to come in from out of the country to face five different federal indictment charges. He walked me through the process of traveling safely to the U.S. without being arrested at the airport. I called Mr. Benowitz many times a week during ...the process and he always kept my spirits up. I was facing up to 20 years in prison and I ended up with a sentence of 2 years probation. I truly believe his experience and the relationships he has developed over the years has earned him a respect with his peers that he more than deserves. That is a key factor in finding the right lawyer. Thanks again David!!!!!

Outstanding

Our experience of legal representation by David Benowitz was powerful proof to us of how truly he deserves the top rankings he has received in his field -- we were able to reach him by phone within minutes of contacting his office, despite it being the first workday after the holidays, and he met w...ith us in his offices later that very morning. He was discerning, calm, reassuring, very cordial, and kind in all his discussions with us. Thanks to the great respect he has earned within the criminal justice system and his extraordinary professional skills, the criminal case was dismissed and our family was relieved of a terrible situation that should never have occurred. He has our family's lasting gratitude, and we offer here wholeheartedly our unreserved recommendation of him as a criminal lawyer, along with our admiration and respect.
