Ben Hyder Houston II

Ben is an excellent litigator. I hired him to represent me for several post judgment motions filed by my ex after the divorce. Ben won every single motion!! Be also won my appeal before the Tennessee Court of Appeals. Ben is strategic. He crafted a persuasive reply brief and defended his positio...n during oral arguments. I was extremely grateful that he took my case. I knew that I was in excellent hands. I can’t say enough good things about Ben.

My primary attorney recommended Ben as a specialist in case law for child and family motions, and I couldn’t be happier that we brought him on! His attention to detail and diligent research made all the difference in winning our case. I’ve been dealing with this for almost twelve years, and Ben is pr...obably the most knowledgeable attorney in regards to case law and arguing the finer points of family law I’ve ever seen. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone. He communicates effectively and returns calls and emails quickly. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to research and argue case law.

Mr. Houston represented us in an ugly case against DCS in Knox County. We had two different lawyers before him who both went in to the courtroom empty handed and advised us to "just roll with what they tell you to do". Well, as a mother that didnt sit right with me! I researched lawyers who will stan...d up to DCS and the juvenile court and ultimately found Mr. Houston. In the very first conversation I had with him, he was quoting specific laws and how they related to my case. From the very beggining he was passionate about arguing the law and dedicating his time to help us get our child back. Over the course of a year, we had several court appearences and Mr. Houston never cowered in the courtroom. He is confident in his knowledge of the law and is not afraid to fight for you even though the court system can be very intimidating. After a long, painful battle we won the fight because Mr. Houston suggested filing a Motion for Summary Judement in a higher court. We are forever grateful for Mr. Houston and how he represented us.

I have known Ben Houston for more than a decade and I have found him to be one of the most honest and ethical lawyers in the Knoxville area. He is most certainly trustworthy and hardworking. As a practicing Attorney myself, I have referred many clients to Ben over the years when someone faced a sit...uation I could not help them with. I have never received a complaint about his work or ethics. I have practiced with Ben on cases involving complex litigation and he is certainly a good guy to have on your side.

I began looking for a lawyer after me and my wife learned of the situation my nieces were in with another cousin who had custody of MY sisters kids.We presented the information to Ben and he told us up front that it would be an up hill battle.The information that we had would have to be proved in cou...rt and alot of it depended on the testimony of my older niece.This is what Ben told us in the begining and he was so right.We were thinking we would have one trial and that would be it but not so we ended up having to go before the judge 3 times.But through all this we won in the end even though it was an up hill battle from the start.Ben done an excellent job all he knew about what was going on is what we told him.Ben did his part as far as what is required of the court for us to do and he knows the law in this field of custody issues.Ben will keep you informed of everything that's going on in your case,as he did ours.Ben is a lawyer and he knows the law he also is a lawyer that YOU can call and talk to if you can't get in touch with him he will call you back as soon as he gets your message,Me and my wife were pleased with his services and we still would be if we had not have won custody.Ben told us when he agreed to take the case that it would be tough and it was.We felt as if Ben was committed to our case and he actually cared very much about the out come.Their was things that happened in the first trial that got us very upset but, it did Ben too and we really felt like he truly was there for us! We would recommend Ben to anyone and we would use him again. Thanks
