Cara Boroda, Unknown Attorney on Jan 19, 2022
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Benjy is a smart and thoughtful attorney who is an expert in his field. Benjy will not just fight hard but is strategic and creative about his cases. Benjy hustles and thinks outside of the box, never looking at any case as typical. His devotion to his clients and his innate ability to pivot and adapt to the various dynamics of a case makes Benjy a strong and excellent advocate to have on your side (and, indeed, a formidable opponent, too).

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
Mr. Smith was aggressive, knowledgeable, and professional. He was easy to work with which helped move the case along efficiently. I would recommend him for all employment matters.
