Sharp Lawyer and Team

Bennett Injury Law has provided legal advice and guidance during a difficult time in my life. This team I've found to be experienced, responsive, attentive, knowledgeable and honest. Throughout the whole process I didn't have to wonder where things were headed and felt as though my situation was in t...rustworthy hands. I would highly recommend Bennett Injury Law to anyone seeking legal representation. It has been proven to me that this Firm is honest and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. I'm very pleased with the representation received and would not hesitate to seek representation from Bennett Injury Law if needed again in future. Bennett Injury Law, you are appreciated!❤

Great Lawyer

After my prior attorney tried to settle my case for $25,000 and only put $8,000 in my pocket, Charles Bennett and his staff took up the case and for the first time really listened to me and how hurt I was. Mr. Bennett got me $420,000 in my pocket after settling the case for $950,000.

Charles is more than a lawyer, he’s a friend

Charles really cares about his clients, it is not about the money with him. He came to see about me when I was in the hospital and that really showed that he cared about me and my family. I could not have asked for a better lawyer and friend. He got us $1M, the full amount of insurance possible, and ...put $525,106.44 in my pocket.

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.
