AS PROFESSIONAL AS THEY COME

MR. BEN LEBRANCHE IS CERTAINLY THE FINEST LAWYER BATON ROUGE HAS TO OFFER. FROM THE FIRST TIME MEETING HIM, HE WAS EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL, COURTEOUS, AND INFORMED. HE HAD A PLAN FROM THE GET GO ON HOW TO GET THINGS DONE. HE WAS WELL INFORMED OF MY CASE BEFORE EVEN MEETING HIM. HE WAS EXTREMELY PROMPT... AT RETURNING CALLS, EMAILS, OR SIMPLY KEEPING ME INFORMED OF ANY NEWS CONCERNING MY CASE. HE WAS CONCERNED ABOUT TRYING TO GET THE BEST CASE SCENARIO AND HE DID EXACTLY WHAT WE WENT OUT TO GET ACCOMPLISHED. A GOD SEND

Peace of mind

Ben helped our family through one of the most difficult situations we’ve ever been in. He was kind, honest and respectful. He listened in times of panic and gave us hope. Our family highly recommends Ben to anyone seeking representation. When potentially charged with any crime, he will do the hard wo...rk for you to make sure the outcome is the right one.

DWI Case/Driving under suspension

I hired Ben LaBranche as soon as I was aware charges were filled against me. He was amazing from the start!! He let me go on a payment plan to cover his fees, that was extremely helpful!! Also, the consultation was free!! For my DWI charges, he did everything in his power to win my case!! We went t...o trial, he was amazing!! He asked all the right questions when the officer was on the stand, and he won my case!! Anytime I needed to speak to him whether it was over the phone or in person, he was available for me. For my Driving under suspension case, I didn't even have to go to court!! He fixed everything for me before the court date and even paid any fines I had for that charge!! Hopefully, I will never need a criminal lawyer again, but if I do, I will definitely be calling Mr. LaBranche, and I suggest you do too!!

Knowledgable and Dependable

Ben got to work right away after the initial phone consultation. I was dealing bench warrants from a suspended license, paraphernalia charge, and multiple traffic violations. All of the warrants were resolved and it all turned out better than expected. The best part of my experience with Ben was tha...t I never had to appear in court. I live many states away so the entire process was done professionally over the phone and via email. All of my phone calls and emails were responded to in a flash! I strongly recommend Ben for legal representation.

DWI

I got a DWI in June 2017. I did some research and found Ben's information. It was easy to get an appointment with him and I discussed my case with him and he gave me the options open to me. He was able to get me into the pre trial intervention program which I successfully completed in July 2018. ... My experience with Ben was awesome. He is a very nice guy, easy to talk to and tells you straight what he can do for you. He worked with me regarding his fees and arranged a payment plan which I could afford. I was able to contact him either through phone or email and his response time was within 24 hours. He took care of my temporary driving permits from DMV and took care of my reinstatement for my drivers licence. I would definitely recommend him.
