This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Incredibly Talented and Successful Trial Lawyer

It is hard to find words to express our profound gratitude to Todd Bennett. From the moment we contacted him with the arrest of our son, he took charge and knew exactly what to do. He always treated us with kindness and respect. Todd advised us on programs for our son, as well as other specialist for... him to see. This was instrumental in helping our son’s case as well as helping him personally. We felt very well prepared for our son’s trial. He did not create any false expectations, but rather gave us a very clear idea of all the possible outcomes of our son’s situation. Todd’s trial preparation, strategies and court room experience ultimately resulted in our son’s acquittal. We cannot thank him enough for what he has done for our son and our whole family. Todd will always hold a special place in our hearts.

Excellent criminal lawyer

5 years ago we hired Todd to help us with a criminal case. Our experience was amazing. He not only helped my husband but took our case close to his heart, and defended us like his own life depended of it. I am thankful for him and highly recomend him.
