Call someone else

I’m wishing I had come here before hiring. I deeply regret using an attorney after this experience just like everyone else here poor communication not getting paid money that I am entitled to because I’m disabled due to an accident. That wasn’t my fault. They haven’t done anything for me they don’t r...eturn calls what they say they never do and yet to have someone keep their word This accident ruined my life and it’s been months since I’ve been paid. I am beginning to think that they’re not able to handle this case, but what can I do when I’ve already had to borrow money from them, conveniently at a one percent interest, so don’t think it’s out of the goodness of their heart.

Excelent Lawyer, Wonderful Person

The office of Benjamin Drake handled my case with excellent results and great care to the end. Even though I moved in the meantime, they find good health care providers for me and took care of all the arrangements including transportation when I needed it. With Ben, I started with a LAWYER and ende...d with a FRIEND!

Poor Communication, Waste of Time

If you're asking if you should consider this law firm, I suggest you look elsewhere. The only reason why I considered hiring this law firm is because he is a friend of a friend, but if I had done my research and not hired based on friends, I would have gone with someone else. When I initially called ...them to take my case, they were super eager to help and took my case right away. There was great communication for the first month. However, after the first month, there was no communication at all. I called. I texted. Nothing. I finally received a big packet in the mail 1.5-2 months later saying they were dropping my case without any explanation. Mind you, I had been seeing a chiropractor this entire time under their directions. Now I'm responsible for these medical bills on my own. Huge waste of time and money. I would not recommend this firm.

I was happy to have someone I could trust with my case.

Ben came highly recommended from a friend who was a former client of his. I suffered a serious injury that required years of recovery including surgery. From the moment he took my case, Ben handled every aspect of my recovery process relieving a lot of my stress. I was very happy with the outcome of ...my case and have recommended many of my friends to him since.
