Benjamin Jacob Carrasco

My business partner and I hired Ben to handle a real estate dispute. Ben took our case (a contract dispute) and pushed everything forward and had no hesitation to take it to court. In fact, he won our summary judgement! He was very reasonably priced and extremely helpful in our case. I would recomm...end him highly.

I live in Houston and was the defendant in a case filed in Travis county. I needed an attorney in Austin to represent me for what I expected to be a simple Motion to Transfer the case to Harris county. I found Ben online after reading a couple reviews. When I called Ben, I was fortunate that he ha...d just had a cancellation for the next day, so he agreed to take my case less than 24 hours prior to the hearing. He asked all the right questions and quickly got up to speed on the facts of the case. Not only did he prepare for the Motion to Transfer, but he made sure he was ready to argue the plaintiffs Motion to Enforce, just in case the judge decided to keep the case in Travis county. That turned out to be a great decision because the judge allowed arguments and testimony for both motions before ruling on either. Ben handled himself very well in the hearing and aggressively argued my position. He is a very quick thinker and he reacted decisively and appropriately to unexpected situations. Ben did a great job for me and the judge granted my Motion to Transfer. Now I'm thinking maybe I should have kept the case in Travis county so I could keep Ben on as my attorney! I'm not happy about being sued and needing an attorney, but I'm very happy I found Ben Carrasco. Based on my experience, I highly recommend Ben.

I would like to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to you. My case seemed hopeless when you took it over, but you pulled a couple of rabbits from your hat and turned it all around. The past YEARS have been very trying and when I felt there was no way out to settle my affairs in fam...ily court you took my case. He was very patient and polite with me even when I was a little overwhelmed. Your attention, assertiveness, and knowledge of the ever so confusing judicial system were displayed in the way you executed my defense. Your court room manner and persistence of presenting the "actual facts" was astonishing. Your argument was strong and your experience and negotiation skills could not be challenged that day! I spent years of my life away from my son because my ex would do whatever she wanted. You are the only one that got me any results. I trust we will work together again in the future. I cannot thank you enough for reuniting me with my son. On that note, may I add that I would recommend YOU to represent the people dearest to me in the future.

Having an opportunity to get modifications in regards to child custody is a huge challenge for a father, especially in Texas. Ben exceeded expectations and was able to get my ex-wife to compromise what was best for our son. After using another attorney who failed to fully represent me, I searched f...or a great attorney who would fight for me. I spoke with at least twenty to thirty different personal attorneys during the search. Ben stood out as someone who was honest, straight forward, and would be committed. After hiring him and he took on the case, I felt very comfortable that he was ahead of the game. He quickly began taking steps to get the scales balanced. Ben filed the documents with the specificity I requested and followed up consistently. After getting the judge to agree to extend the hearing date, Ben scheduled a deposition and took to the necessary steps to prepare for the hearing. During the deposition with my ex-wife, he was assertive, professional, and was able to get her to give information that could be used in court. Between the deposition and the scheduled hearing, Ben followed up with any requests and was aggressive when he needed to be. My major concerns were to have my son back in school (no longer home schooled by his mother), being involved in his educational planning, spending more time with him, and having geographical restrictions. All of this was accomplished and Ben always made me feel like we had the upper hand during the case. One of the best things about him, is he is truly honest and will not just tell you what you want to hear. He literally told me multiple times, "you're going to spend more money that way," when it came to some of my impulse ideas. How many attorneys are going to try to save you money? My ex-wife has been one of the toughest people to deal with when it came to child custody, but I truly can relax now and that's because of a great lawyer who made it happen. If you want someone who will support you and get it done, Ben is the guy!
