About Bennett
Biography
Remember me fromTV? I was the Investigative Reporter on CBS11News for more than 10 years? I am a nationally recognized award-winning televisionjournalist who stood up to major banks and corporations exposing lies anddeceit to protect the people of North Texas. After 20 years in journalism, Imade a decision to spend less time “reporting” and more time “doing something” tohelp people in our community.
So, after beingout of law school for 15 years, I took the Texas Bar Exam and passed on myfirst try! It wasn't easy, but I did it. The universe was telling me something,but was I listening? A few years ago, I opened up the doors of my new legalpractice – the Law Office of Bennett Cunningham, PC - focusing on Consumer Bankruptcylaw (Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 Bankruptcy). 

My track record as a television investigativereporter shows my desire for discovering the truth, my reputation for honestyand my integrity. Here is a sample of what my peers, nationally and in Texas,think of my work. Now imagine how hard the Law Office of Bennett Cunningham, PCcan work for you.
I am licensed topractice law in Texas and the Federal Courts in the Northern & EasternDistrict of Texas.

Bennett ,totally was prepared for me when sitting down with my bankruptsy case. He, unlike other lawyers, I witnessed, was thourough, and had everything in place for my case.

I would not hesitate to recommend Bennett to anyone considering Bankruptcy. He is very easy to work with and answers any questions that I may have very timely. He is very knowledgeable and someone who made the process a smooth one for me.
