Highly recommended... trustworthy and communicative

Ben and his team have been extremely helpful and professional throughout my ongoing DVRO and divorce matters. They have been patient, communicative, and supportive during a very difficult time for me, and even took over representation from my previous lawyer on very short notice. Ben took the time to... review my case in depth and really listen to my side of the story. He has been consistently polite, accommodating, and professional both in and out of court. Most importantly, I trust him with my case.

Life Saver

Benjamin Kanani did a huge life saver. My ex falsely accused me of hitting her and made up a bunch of lies to gain an advantage in my case, but thanks to Ben's determination and attention to detail, the judge saw through it and denied her request for a restraining order, which could have cost me my ...job and set my career back in a big way. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality legal representation.

"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."
