Jason is an advocate for Fathers rights!

Jason is working very hard to make the impossible possible. I am a Father that is trying to get custody of my daughter. It is very hard in this state to gain custody if you are a father and we were very close to making that happen because of Jason's hard work! I believe Jason loves what he does a...nd his retainers and rates are very reasonable. I have spoke to people that have told me that Jason was the opposing partys atty and lost to Jason. The consensus is "find Jason first" so he can fight for you instead of being on the opposing end. Our case is not over yet and have a long road ahead of us . I am happy to have Jason by my side every step of the way! Thanks Jason! your a rock star!

JASON, THE BARACUDA!!!

Jason Benjamin is the best out of all three child custody lawyers that handled my case. Jason was the lawyer that I felt fought the hardest for me and had the best personality. My friend told me he heard someone beating on the table from the other room; I was proud to say that the noise was coming fr...om my lawyer fighting for me and making a point. Jason took my case on last minute when other lawyers were trying to charge me ridiculous prices and others said they did not have enough of an advanced notice. I felt that he really ripped my ex to shreds on the stand and proved to the judge that the GAL was lying for the opposing party. Mr. Benjamin is incredibly trustworthy, responsive, and knowledgeable. I would hire Jason again without having a second thought. We won custody of my son earlier this month.

Great Lawyer

I worked with Jason Benjamin for a custody battle that took place over a year after my divorce was final. My ex-husband was making false accusations and embellishing the truth, in order to turn the partenting plan around to give him and his new wife full custody, and wanted me to have to pay him chi...ld support. Jason worked with me for over a year through the many hearings that took place. Jason was able to help prove that my statements were accurate, that my ex-husband was not being truthful, and that he did not have reasonable grounds to win his case. When it came time to write declarations, Jason made sure that every statement we made was not spiteful or insulting, but was to the point. This helped me to be able to come out of the case with my head held high, knowing that I didn't stoop to the lower levels of my ex-husband and his attorney. Everything we said and did was based on supported fact. Being a single mother, I was financially strapped. Jason took this into consideration when discussing fees, and he made sure that our time was used wisely. The total of my expenses were incredibly reasonable, and so much less than what I expected. In the end, the custody and parenting plan remained nearly the same as it was before, and the minor changes that took place were ones that I desired. Not only did my ex-husband loose his case, but he was also ordered to pay 70% of my attorney fees, and his monthly child support was increased by 28%. I would have never been able to have such a great outcome without the help of Jason and his office staff. I am very grateful for their time and patience. I owe many thanks to Jason, Diane, and Elaine.

Amazing Attorney

I got the name of Jason Benjamin from a friend who had used him. I didn't know what to expect when my divorce first started and was very nervous and scared. Jason took me to court and got me everything and more than I even thought I could get. Since my divorce Ive been back to Mr. Benjamin to update ...my parenting plan. He took me through court again and I dont wanna brag but he blew my ex-husbands attorney out of the water. He was amazing... I got everything we had asked for and at the time my ex was mounting a case against me which could have made Jason alot of money by representing me, but Jason got his attoney to drop the case and gave up making that money to help me. Thats how I know he's a great attorney. I would reccomend Jason Benjamin to everyone. I couldn't of asked for a better attorney.

Genuinely and sincerely dedicates to fight for the truth. He was very honest and open with me about my challenges in the case.

Jason Benjamin accepted my case regardless of my challenges. He understood that I was battling against an ex-husband who had millions of dollars. The other party brought in 3 well known local attorneys that Jason was up against. One who eventually withdrew from the case. His rates are very reasonab...le. He committed himself to my case that came with very complicated legalities and a number of complex issues. My case involved child abuse, child endangerment,neglect and mental disorders with the other party. My case had a very extensive list of witness's, 3 of which were expert witness's that Jason arranged . Jason was very responsive and knowledgeable family law and related cases. As the other party was willing to spend what ever it took and constantly was filing frivolous motion after motion, Jason responded to every attack without hesitation. My case lasted over a year, trial was set and Jason was very prepared and very aggressive. My case prevailed over the other party. I am very grateful for Jason. He fought for the truth and certainly works with integrity. I have never known of any attorney who is willing to commit the way Jason did.
