Motor vehicle accidents

I was able to receive my entire policy limit due to the amount of effort put forth to handle my case. This is a great law firm and they will fight for you until the end.

I was in a car accident early Jan 2019 and Benjamin Durham Law Services took great care of me. I had physical therapy almost immediately and my case was closed with payment with in 7 months. Very pleased is an understatement. I would absolutely recommend.

Thank you

Raquel was very helpful and understanding through my whole process. The over all staff was very helpful and supportive when I needed assistance. This was my first time in an accident. I felt foreign to the process. They carefully walked me through each step. From my car getting fixed to getting my ph...ysical health back. Thank you for all your assistance. I really appreciate the help! I would recommend as I have already done. :)

Immigration lawyer | May 06

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have seen Ben work in the Criminal courts in Las Vegas and I can attest to his high skills in that area. He also helps immigration clients, and has keen insights into the consequences of any criminal activity on their immigration status or prospects. If you have any sort of criminal history at all and are thinking of starting an immigration process, you would be very smart to first call Ben Durham. More than any other issue, criminal arrests can sink any immigration case. Call Ben first."

"Ben has been a friend and mentor that I trust. He is very experienced in all areas of criminal defense, including numerous trials at both state and the federal level.

Criminal defense lawyer | Nov 19

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. I know Ben though a weekend retreat that we both attended. He is a graduate of BYU and has been practicing for 12 years. Ben maintains a very busy practice, even without advertising. In fact, most of his clients find their way to him through referrals from colleagues and other clients. A big reason for the large volume of referral business he does is the deep sense of responsibility Ben feels for each and every one of his clients. Ben personally handles every aspect of a client's representation from the moment the client enters his office for the first time until the very last appearance. Because he keeps as busy as he does, Ben has had the opportunity to gain a significant amount of trial experience, both at the state and federal levels. Although the bulk of his practice is criminal defense, Ben also handles personal injury cases. I have no doubt that either type of client would be well taken care of by Ben."

"I recently represented a co-defendant of Mr. Durham's. I can say from watching him in action that few attorneys possess his level of poise and courtroom presence. He has an innate gift that cannot be learned in any book. If I had the misfortune of being accused of a crime and seeking a lawyer, Mr. Durham would be at the top of my list."
