If you been hurt on the job or need a lawyer for any reason, I would highly recommend Ben Whitley. In the court room he'll show just how smart and knowledgeable he is. He comes well prepared with evidence, questions and answers. He can discredit just about every witness the other side has. He is strong, confident and never nervous, and neither should you with him on your side. He will have you well prepared to face your obstacles. The moment he starts to speak you will feel his confidence and you will see the opposing lawyers facial expressions change. After working with him on my case, which we won thanks to Ben and his staff, we are not just a client and a lawyer, but we are friends! When you work with Ben Whitley you will have a new friend for life!

Attorney that cares more for you than your money

My worker's comp case began in 2005 while employed with the state. It dragged on forever as I was shuffled doctor to doctor and given the run-around. I was not hurt seriously enough to warrant a court hearing but did need advice as to how to bring my case to closure and still receive a due impairment award. Ben didn't know me and still took the time to properly advise me so that I could handle the case on my own. Because of him, my case is finally coming to an end. He provided me with the proper information to be able to negotiate with the worker's comp company. I was so impressed that he was not concerned about what was in it for him but what was best for me. He is very knowledgeable and easy to understand. He is not an ambulance chaser. Thank you, Ben!
