"Ben Kanani is an extremely talented, generous, intelligent family law attorney. I worked with Ben during his time volunteering with the Harriett Buhai Center for Family Law, and saw firsthand how Ben was equally comfortable providing trauma informed legal advice for survivors of severe domestic violence, counseling parents involved in high-conflict custody and visitation situations, and addressing complex financial issues of support and asset division. He is a great asset to the community of family law attorneys practicing in Los Angeles."
