Annette J. Benson

I was very pleased with my experience with Annette. She was thorough and paid great attention to details that could be problem causing. For a long time, I felt I was floating around at sea without a voice and with someone that was trying to drown me. Today, I have a new agreement in place that is... fair and has little room for antics to cause me hardship. I appreciate all her hard work and look forward to a new beginning.

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.

I highly recommend Annette Benson. Annette’s representation has been nothing short of remarkable. Always timely and effective in making sure my rights as a parent are respected, she has proven to be highly experienced and knowledgeable in what the law is, and unyielding in holding accountable those w...ho would otherwise ignore it. I am forever indebted to Annette and her very caring and capable team of professionals; they have all worked together to make a purposeful difference for my son and I.

I hired Annette as my divorce lawyer after parting ways with my original lawyer when I determined he was not competent to handle my case. This was only days before we were scheduled for our first mediation session. I found Annette through a professional recommendation and contacted her the same d...ay and we had our first phone consultation that very same afternoon. After a short conversation I knew right away I had made the right decision. During our short consultation she asked questions that my former lawyer did not consider even after four weeks. In less than 24 hours Annette handled getting the paperwork filed with the courts, informed my former lawyer of the change and had the mediation rescheduled. I did not have to do a thing. We had a few more phone conversations over the next few days and then we meet to prep for the upcoming mediation. I was very impressed. It was like night and day compared to my first lawyer. She was completely prepared for the meeting which was impressive given the short time she had to prepare. She asked me very relevant questions and discussed in detail how the mediation process would go, how I should conduct myself in the meeting, what our strategy would be (and there is one), and the potential outcomes I could expect. As I came to find out, she was spot on. As the process progressed and we got into the final days of negotiation (we did not come to an agreement in mediation), Annette worked closely with me all the way through. She would advise me of the options, give me her opinion on what I should do, but leave the ultimate decision making to me and even take some of my suggestions. She also helped keep me grounded when my emotions would get in the way. In the end she was able to negotiate a very favorable agreement without the need for me to even appear in court. There is no doubt in my mind, if I had stayed with my original lawyer it would not have been nearly as favorable. Annette also has very professional staff of individuals to assists her in many aspects of the process. They handle a lot of the client communication and scheduling, preparation of documentation, billing, etc.. at a lower rate which can save money in the end. They provided very detailed invoices outlining where the time I was being billed for was spent. There is definitely a team concept approach to how they handle their clientele which is a testament to how Annette wants matters handled whether she is involved or not. Whenever I would contact Annette via phone or email I always received a prompt response from her or one of her staff depending on the situation. She communicated regularly with me and I was able to review all documents without being rushed and if had questions she took the time to explain things. Annette treated me with tremendous respect. She is a very warm friendly caring person. I felt like I had a real friend in my corner. I hope I will never need her services again, but if I do, I will not hesitate to contact Annette and cannot recommend her more highly to anyone looking for a top notch lawyer who will do her best to represent you and get the best results possible. You can't go wrong with Annette Benson Law.

Annette took the time to go over every detail of my case. She was very personal, and attentive! I was well informed through the entire process, and I never felt confused or unsure. Annette listened to my concerns, and was able to explain every detail in a way that put my mind at ease. After years of ...stress and worry, Annette Benson was the answer I was looking for! She’s my family law attorney for life, I have no need to look anywhere els! She’s the best, and I’m more than satisfied by the results she got for me.
