More than a lawyer a friend when your in need.

When my crew and I where involved in a work place flash fire we didn't know who to trust not even our employer. Benny was there every step of the way from begging to the end. He was always honest and never counseled us for his personal convenience or personal gain. It was always about us and our well... being and what was best for us. On behalf of my family and I we thank Benny and appreciate his professionalism for all his help.

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.
