Great Attorney not out for just your dollars!!!!

I had my exhusband serve me with papers from his attorney to move out & sell are home, that we purchased together while married, on my son's 18th birthday. Jason saw me about this issue and told me to write his attorney a letter about are financial debts we still owed to IRS and my exhusbands child s...upport bill that hadn't been paid in 3 years and back property taxes owed of 33 thousand dollars. So I did what Jason said and sure enough I recieved a letter from my exhusbands attorney in about 2-3 weeks telling me he was not going to represent my exhusband and was no longer to be informed of any issues reguarding the two of us. Jason futher more told me if the letter didn't work to get back with him about it. I saved a lot of money just talking to Jason about it at a free console. I had spoke to another attorney previously about the same issue and that attorney wanted $500 to write a letter and a $3,500 retainer to go any further after the letter. So in my opinion Jason is very honest, upfront and knowledgeable. I would hire him in the future if needed, and will highly refer him to anybody looking for services he offers. I have worked with many attorney's in the past, and think Jason rates A+++

The right attorney

Jason was fabulous with my case. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a family law attorney. He knows the law and works diligently for his clients. My case was fairly complex with many different things to consider, it wasn't a typical divorce. His fees were fair and he stayed within the p...rice quoted initially. He and his staff are friendly. My only complaint is it can be difficult to reach him sometimes due to his incredibly busy schedule. However, I am completely happy with the outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better or more qualified attorney.

Just what I needed!

When a friend recomended Jason Benjamin I was pretty much hopeless going through never ending hearings trying to get my son back from his dad and trying to prove that i was not the evil in the story as the oposing party tried to make me look. I have had two attorneys already, have spent a lot of mon...ey with them but I was getting nowhere. When i met the first time with Jason he was honest and after reviewing all the documentation that i had to support my case he didnt set false or high expectations and i liked his honesty. All i wanted was to have my son every day with me and he told me that he was going to be shocked if I didnt get the custody because i had everything to win.Finally when the trial came (it lasted 4 days) i could see him in action and was when i confirmed that he is good on what he does and of course I won the custody of my son. I just can say that if you are looking for honesty and results Jason is the attorney to hire. I also have to mention that his secretary Elaine and his paralegals are very supportive and friendly, many times i was about to lose my mind but they were always nice to me and very patient. I do appreciate that from Jason's office becaue it does a great difference when going through so much stress as the stress experienced when going through this kind of issues.

Highly Recommend

After spending over $10k with another lawyer with no progress, I explored other options and found Mr. Benjamin. My original lawyer was continuously contacting me, requiring more money. Mr. Benjamin was very clear, from the beginning, what my fees would be and he did not waiver from that agreement. I ...felt Mr. Benjamin sincerely cared about the outcome of my case and was not just interested in collecting a paycheck. He took the time to meet with me often to explain where we were in the process and what to expect next. His is very straight forward - never sugar coating the situation or minimizing my concerns. In specifics that I worried and stressed about, Mr. Benjamin had a clear, calm understanding and explained what to expect and how to proceed. He is truly a stable presence amidst a chaotic and emotionally challenging time. In court, he is prepared, concise, articulate, dynamic and confident. As a result of his efforts and readiness, Mr. Benjamin was able to secure every request I had in my case. I greatly appreciate all he did, and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone seeking a competent, capable lawyer. The only thing I regret about working with Mr. Benjamin, is that I was not able to work with him sooner.

Relocation

my ex-boyfriend told me I had a bad lawyer, that I wasn't going to be able to relocate with our son. I had a 50/50 custody plan with my sons father, my son is 4 years old and my husband and our family were to be stationed in georgia for the Army. Well Jason was right not to worry, everything worked ...out just like he predicted and my son is relocating to Georgia. Jason was affordable and also flexible with payments and well worth it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND him he knows what he's doing don't ever doubt him like I did, he surely proved me wrong. I will be thanking this guy for the rest of my life and I hope his career and family will always be blessed. Thank You!!! so much!!!!
