Excellent Family Law Attorney

I am absolutely grateful to have Annette and her team on my side as I was facing a very non-linear opponent who moved in difficult to predict directions on most custodial and property division issues. Annette’s rare combination of street and book smarts underpinned by deep understanding of human psyc...hology as well as her unfading fighter-like energy resulted in the best custody and property deal I could accomplish under the circumstances.

Dr.

I can’t tell you how disappointed I was in this firm. I hired Ms. Benson and immediately after paying my retainer fee, I realized I had made a mistake. Tons of unanswered phone calls and messages ended up costing me not only money, but time and added grief. She was disorganized, didn’t have proper do...cumentation on many meetings. When I went to court, one of her associates showed up and told the judge we wanted split custody...meaning a week at each parents house and then a week at the other parents home...we NEVER said this was the arrangement we wanted. I left after this and found another lawyer who actually KNEW the law. Don’t waste your time...

I have not had a client of my firm that even comes close to matching the description of events referenced in this review. It is likely that the review was written by an unethical attorney or someone with a lot of anger trying to avoid taking responsibility for the hardships in their marriage. The truth is, going through a divorce or any form of family law litigation can be difficult and emotional, and while my firm is supportive of our client's needs, some people hold onto hurt and misdirect their pain. It is unfortunate when this occurs as holding onto anger serves no positive purpose.

Unfortunately provided very poor representation at time of great need and confusion Poor custody and financial outcome Very disappointing Would never recommend

Obviously you were not happy with my response to your prior Avvo posting. You can continue to post here pretending to be someone else but I'm sure your time could be better spent focusing on yourself.

Best Lawyer!!

Annette and her staff took a scary situation and made it much less scary. She took care of me and my family as though we were her own family! She is a very knowledgeable attorney that will fight hard for the truth and the best interest of her clients. I will always be grateful to Annette for what she... was able to accomplish for myself and my family. I would highly recommend her and her staff to anyone going through a difficult divorce or child custody case!

Outstanding and Trustworthy Attorney

Annette Benson is an outstanding attorney. She is a person of rectitude, and is very knowledgeable in her field which is family law. It includes, but is not limited to, child custody and child support. My case involved minor children, and custody was the crux of the litigation. She is very factual an...d analytical and knows how to present issues very clearly to the Judge/court. In addition, Annette is very trustworthy with all the information that she gathers for the case, and I put all my trust, my kids in this case, in her. She did an excellent job, and as a result, I was awarded sole custody of my kids. Suffice it to say that, when we went to court to finalize the case, the Judge said: “The kids won Ms. Benson.", for the kids were going to be with the right parent thanks to her efforts. I could not have done it without her. She is definitely the best attorney in town!
