Posted by ST | October 24, 2014 | Juvenile

Was a champion for my son.

My son, a minor was stopped with three other students in the vehicle with him and was issued a DUI. As a father I was both disappointed and concerned. I knew at 17 he did not need this on his record so I started researching online for good attorneys that specialize in this area of the law. Bens nam...e was at the top of one of the sites that I looked at so my son and I went and met with him and discussed my sons situation. I was vey impressed with Bens professionalism and his knowledge of the law concerning DUI charges, not only law in the literal sense but also in the attitude of the local courts and their approach to defendants. He gave us some options and recommendations on what we should do. After some discussion I decided that we should fight the charges and try the best we could to keep my sons record clean. Throughout the process I was kept in the loop and always knew where we stood. He made sure my son was able to drive the entire time we waited for our day in court. I will not go into the details but to my surprise he was successful in winning my sons case outright and without having to plea to a lessor charge. I hope that I or anyone I know ever has the need for Bens services but if they are ever needed he will be the first person I call.
