Guardianship

Ms. Bennett didn't just handle my son's guardianship; she shared detailed updates and walked me through every step with patience and clarity. From the beginning, she gave me a sense of security in this otherwise overwhelming and complex process. I truly appreciated her volunteering her time, effort, ...expertise, guidance, and generosity. Because of her, I'm now able to share that knowledge with other parents and help them advocate confidently. I also want to express my deep gratitude to the Dallas Volunteer Attorney Program for providing the opportunity for legal aid services to help families like mine. Resources like these are vital to our community. Thank you for your work.

Our Guardian Angel.

How to begin what this lady has done for me and my family. And the heartful thing about her is that she took my case on for free. My grandson mother passed away 3 weeks before his birthday and my son, his father did not want him. For 2 years she fought for my family and Little Orlando to have a bet...ter life. Ms. Bennett has given me a gift that I can't measure up to, custody of my grandson on the 24th year of my only daughter passing away, a day before her first birthday. Thank you Ms .Bennett, you are now a part of our family forever.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
