TRULY THE BEST ATTORNEY I'VE EVER WORKED WITH

Attorney Ben Davis, is a very good at explaning the legal system in laymans terms. He is has a tell- it- like- it- is approach which was refreshing and much appreciated during a time when only the truth provided comfort. I have and will continue to recommend Mr. Davis to anyone who finds themselves in need of a great defense attorney.

The Goat

“DA” Lewis Lamb wrongfully charged my son Makevion Bonner of Malice Murder, Felony Murder and Armed Robbery possibly sentencing him life without parol. My son Makevion Bonner character was attacked by Lewis Lamb by allegations on strategies “DA” Lewis Lamb made up in his head on what took place. “DA” Lewis Lamb had no evidence to charge my son Makevion Bonner with these horrible charges and not only did he discredit my son and slander his name “DA” Lewis Lamb subpoenaed Me and made me testify against my own son. Lewis Lamb attacked me as if I was a criminal, Lewis Lamb disrespected me as a person, parent and as a US citizen. Lewis Lamb never forgave my son and I for turning over the key evidence they needed to solve this case instead “DA” Lewis Lamb charged my son with these awful charges. The Bonner’s thought we was doing right by helping the law but the law had another plan to railroad my son. I want to thank the awesome “The Goat” Benjamin Davis for bringing my son home. One last thing I want to say is us citizens shouldn’t have a “DA” that doesn’t care about truth or anything except only what comes out of his mouth .

The best

Benjamin is the best I wouldn’t go to court with anyone else. He’s very confident he’s not afraid of trial and most importantly he doesn’t believe in pleading his clients out. I had another attorney before Benjamin that said he couldn’t get the D.A to go any lower than 5 years prison so I hired Benjamin and he got the case DISMISSED no probation no fine no nothing DISMISSED I wouldn’t get caught in the court room without him #dagoat

Best lawyer to have

Best money ever spent.

I hired Benjamin for my case and must say that at first I was worried like anyone else would be. He came and answered any questions I may have had and told me he was my mouth and he works for me. Meaning don’t say nothing to nobody about my case if they need to know anything talk to him. That’s what he gets paid for. After that conversation we had he made my worries go away by answering all the questions I had and showing me cases that he’s won. I honestly feel that Ben really loves to win cases and it’s not just for the money it’s like a sport that he’s playing to win. Needless to say he won my case and if needed again he will be hired by me. Especially if you’re in a small town that tries to bend or curve the law if you know what I mean. Not on Ben watch though because this man is too knowledgeable about the law to let that happen to anyone he’s representing. The only reason I gave 5 ⭐️ is because it wouldn’t let me give more. Keep up the good work and continue to help some of the wrongfully accused brothers and sisters that need your service.

Saved my CDL

Mr. Davis was highly recommended and it was a blessing firing the lawyer I had and retaining him. I was facing a DUI charge which would have disqualified my Commercial Drivers License and ended my truck driving career. My lawyer, at the time, told me the best he could do was plead guilty with minimal fines and probation. At that point, I gave Mr. Davis a call. He reviewed the facts of my case and took an aggressive approach to make the state prove their case. He got the DUI dismissed and I left with a misdemeanor traffic citation. I strongly recommend Mr. Davis who will fight for you and WIN, rather than settle.

Forever Grateful 9/19/19

9/19/19... is a day that will forever be etched in my heart. My sons were both ACQUITTED, on multiple charges Malice Murder, Felony Murder, Armed Robbery, Conspiracy to Commit Armed Robbery, and Aggravated Assault. Mr Davis represented my 20 year old. Our initial consultation gave me relief as well as hope. Mr. Davis is confident, agile and very knowledgeable. His professionalism is admirable. Whatever questions I asked he had answers. Whenever I needed to meet with him he made himself available. I appreciate him for always being forthcoming. Our case was a high profile case, he gave me strategies to implement that helped me process things mentally. I trusted him with my life line, he worked diligently to yield a positive outcome. The boldness and judiciary knowledge he exhibited during trial was astounding. Words can not express how overjoyed I am. Benjamin Davis is the best... My son calls him “Big Ben”... he dropped back and threw a touchdown! Whomever is reading this if you, a family member, a love one, or a stranger is in need of a Defense Attorney retain Mr. Benjamin Davis. I am forever grateful.

Mr. Mitchell

Mr. Davis did an excellent job representing me. I was facing quite a bit of jail time and he got both cases dismissed. I was facing a DUI and simple battery charge. Mr. Davis was thorough and well prepared every time in court. He exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend him!!!!

The man does his job!!!

A couple of years ago my son, 17 years old at the time, needed legal representation on a weapons charge. He’d been a model student in high school but got caught up in the trappings of being a college student alone in the city of Atlanta. He was consequently locked up for possession. My wife and I really didn’t know where to turn and came across Ben Davis. He came highly recommended. Upon our initial consult, we were sold. As a nurse for some 20+ years, my patients appreciate my experience and confidence in my abilities. This is what I saw in Ben Davis. We were contacted and updated consistently on his case. My questions and concerns were addressed to my satisfaction. Our financial obligation was worth every cent and then some. I can’t thank Ben Davis enough. My son’s case was reconciled and he is now a junior at a well respected HBCU in Tennessee. All I can say is, if you need masterful legal representation, look no further than Ben Davis. We are forever in his debt.
