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 .

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.

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 a...s 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.

Words cannot express how tremendously grateful we are to Mr. Benjamin Davis.

Words cannot express how tremendously grateful we are to Mr. Benjamin Davis. With our son facing several charges of murder, aggravated assault, and other felony charges, we were distraught and lost. While coming highly-recommended by several family members Mr. Davis level of expertise and professiona...lism surpassed even our greatest expectations. Aside from his obvious skill and remarkable success rate, Mr. Benjamin Davis was genuinely committed to our son's case. He helped us through a very daunting legal process, regardless of the time or importance of our matter, every phone call, txt or email was promptly and personally returned. He never lost patience with us despite our frequent and overwhelming inquiries. With each step or circumstance that arose, Mr. Davis gave practical advise and supplied the necessary information to allow us to make informed decisions. On the four murder charges, "NOT GUILTY", Charges of aggravated assault, "NOT GUILTY", felony charges, all reduced to misdemeanors! Should you find yourself or a loved one in need of legal representation call Mr. Benjamin Davis NOW! Simply put, Mr. Davis is exceptional and rare. Without the slightest reservation, with honor and great enthusiasm I recommend Mr. Benjamin Davis to anyone who requires excellent legal representation. Thank you Mr. Davis
