Reviewed and improved my contracts

I have enjoyed working with Ryan Bennett to review and improve my contract documents. He leads with curiosity and then applies his knowledge and skill to the task.

Ryan is an anmazing attorney!

Ryan is an amazing attorney who really helped me slow down to ensure I had a solid foundation for my business before scaling my liabilities that would potentially cause major issues. One huge area that he helped with was our contracts. We thought we had solid agreements in place, but he was able t...o point out gaps that could be detrimental to our business if we didn’t fix the issues. If you are on the fence choosing an attorney for your business, at least hear Ryan out…you’ll be glad you did.

Extremely Helpful! Very Professional!

We met with Ryan Bennett for a consultation regarding a new lease agreement where we live that we wanted to make sure we understood before we sign anything. Ryan was very professional and also very attentive with our needs. He answered every question we had and made sure we understood what the lease... agreement said with professionalism and clarity. He was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable of the law.

I highly recommend Ryan Bennett for your legal needs. Ryan recently constructed a contract for my business and I feel he made sure I had a bullet proof sales contract that would protect my business. Ryan asked the right questions and his demeanor made our work together a pleasant experience.

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.
