Best attorney ever!
My experience with Alma was awesome! It was a smooth experience. Never in your wildest dreams do you expect to experience divorce. If you do, Alma Benavides will take great care of you! She always had my back. A friend had referred her to me and she was exactly what I expected! Thanks so much.

Amazing
This lawyer helped me through my adoption process. She communicated the process very clearly to me and explained what documents I would need to print off and where to send it.

Crusader for Justice
Whether you are man or woman, if you have a marital problem, Atty Benavides should be your go-to atty. She got me out of a complicated international divorce/child support situation that another higher priced atty got me into. Tango mucho respeto!
