Ben Joseph Raia

My ex-wife filed a modification case seeking to change our Agreed Final Decree of Divorce several years after it was completed. Her grounds for the change were in my opinion self -serving and based on several alleged points that would be detrimental and restrictive to our adult child's future. ...Ben and the team at Slate & Associates all worked together in a coordinated effort to help with the defense of the case. They listened and learned the details of me and my family's circumstances. And they believed in me and my support for my adult child. Throughout the process, Ben kept the focus on the relevant legal points that mattered. As I reacted to all the irrelevant and distracting points that the opposing counsel continuously put out there, Ben worked to help me understand the legal points and strategies that we were using to get to our end goal. The process included filing a Motion for Summary Judgement which was granted by the Court in our favor. The process of working thru this was extensive. All the Paralegals were very knowledgeable and helpful to the entire process. And the Appellate team within Slate & Associates was very helpful to have as a resource and provided support to Ben. Thru it all Ben kept on point. In the Hearing, while the opposing counsel used his showmanship, Ben kept his focus on the relevant legal points, which is what mattered most to the Judge. I can't thank Ben and everyone else at Slate & Associates enough who helped me - Dominique, Bronwyn, Emily M., Karlene, Emily C. and Brenda.

I cannot recommend Ben Raia and his team enough. They were professional, knowledgeable, and empathetic. They took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all my questions thoroughly. Their attention to detail and expertise in family law made me feel confident that my case was in good hands. M...ost importantly, they showed a genuine care for my well-being and the well-being of my family. They were supportive and understanding throughout the entire emotional journey of my case. Overall, I am incredibly grateful for the exceptional service Ben provided. I would recommend Slate and Associates to anyone in need of legal assistance in the family law arena.

Probably the most stressful time of my life and being a father was with my child custody battle. Ben and his team were extremely understanding and walked me through the whole process step by step making everything as simple as possible. My case seemed complex to me but not for his team, Ben went abov...e and beyond and fought for what was right and the outcome was exactly what I wanted and more. It’s tough for the father to have primary custody and Ben and his team did just that. I couldn’t be more thankful for their hard work. If something else ever came up in the future I won’t hesitate to contact him!
