Partners on long roads

This was the right firm choice for my difficult and unusual case. They were very attentive to both myself and children’s needs. Responses to questions came quickly and when needed action was swift. Not a moment of disappointment.

Child Custody issues

This office was the first of about 5 I went to. The consult was free which was great. I met with Ms Wheeler, who I immediately loved. She was stern, forward and didn't beat around the bush about anything. When I left there, I knew she was going to be my Atty. After meeting with the other attys, I cam...e back to Benke Law. Ms Wheeler and I went over all the facts of the case and set up all the child custody, visitation and support issues. She would end up doing all the leg work for my case. She attended court with me and I did not need to say one word because she was there for me. Midways, through my child custody court, Ms Wheeler was given another job opportunity. I was extremely nervous. However, my case was transferred to Atty Elise Stremel. She impressively picked up where Ms Wheeler left off. There was no delay, or disappointment. I was very pleased with the representation I had from both professional and non-judgmental attorneys.

Kathleen Fox-SanVictores

This law firm was extremely helpful in resolving my child support case. My attorney Kathleen Fox-SanVictores was not only knowledgeable, but very personable which made me feel more at ease during this stressful time. Katy explained legal terms I was not familiar with, so I could fully understand t...he process. I thank Katy and the entire legal team at Steven Benke Law Firm for all their help and would highly recommend them to anyone seeking legal help with family cases.

Best in town

This review is for the non-custodial father, who lives in the shadows of a custodial parent. Imagine being there everyday, watching your child grow in front of your eyes, then suddenly your child is taken away for selfish gain . Unfortunately just like many of you, I was placed on child support a...nd given standard visitation. For 12 years I supported my child emotionally, mentally, physically, and financially to name a few. I attended school functions, after school programs, and extracurricular activities. As years passed, my child began to show a sudden loss of interest in school and began to express how unhappy living with the custodial parent had become. After my child ran away, I knew things were about to get serious. As a father I couldn't watch my child go through this downfall. I wanted to be more involved in my child's life but the custodial parent wouldn't allow me. I seeked legal representation and hired Lawyer Steve Benke. I wanted an experienced child custody lawyer, who was knowledgable when it came to the laws of the state and who would work with me and for me. After a few court hearings, Mr. Benke was able to equal the playing field. Now my child's mother and I have equal amount of time with our child and share equal rights. "50/50". Thanks Mr. Benke!
