excellent

I was very thankful to have mr. gray my attorney I was almost certain that I would be charged with what I was being accused of even though I was completely innocent. He had little evidence to work with but got all my charges dropped I would recommend him to anybody needing an attorney in the future a...nd I will be using him as mine if I ever need one again

Very experienced. Easy going, knowledgeable

Had a Class A misdemeanor involving waking up in a backyard with my pistol on me, blackout drunk, of course. Got the crime lowered to a B, got my pistol back, and got 1 year probation that, after completing, will get removed from my record. Thank you very much.

He was very good with communicating with me and got my case dismissed. Gave me great details and was very caring and helpful.

Excellent Attorney in Juvenile Law

I had discovered that a juvenile charge that occurred almost 22 years ago resurfaced during a background check. I have done well in life and worried that all my hard work towards being a responsible and respected adult could resurface and potentially cause irreparable damage to my reputation. I began... my search for an attorney who could find a way to expunge the record and it was overwhelming to say the least to find the right person for the job. I found Mr. Benjamin Gray through AVVO and after reading his bio and his many positive reviews, I decided to call him. The first day we spoke, I explained to him the entire situation regarding my case. He was very patient and was genuinely interested in helping me out. His rates were also very affordable in comparison to other firms I had narrowed down and contacted. Needless to say I hired him and was very pleased with his work. Benjamin would routinely call to give me updates on the case and to brief me on any additional information that he felt might be important for me to know. Due to the case being so old, Benjamin also had to do a lot of the leg work including speaking with the courthouse's archives personnel to get the proper documentation and information. He did all of this without hesitation. He was also able to speak with the judge directly to ensure the case was handled in a timely manner. In the end, the juvenile case that has haunted me all these years has been finally expunged (sealed) and I can thank David for giving me the opportunity to move on with my life. If you are looking for an attorney who will give you the personal attention your case deserves, and who will work hard until it is resolved, I recommend you call Mr. Benjamin Gray. You will not be disappointed.

Great Lawyer

I Hired Mr. Gray for a DWI case and he did everything he could to help me eventually have the case dismissed. He is a hard working friendly guy who will have your back. I would highly recommend calling him for your legal issues.

  • 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.
