Best Lawyer YOu can ever ask for

Ben, is the best lawyer anyone can find. Trust me, I have had a lot of lawyers in my life and to me, lawyers are an expensive frustrating lot. But Ben is different. I first hired him, I was sceptical, but Ben proved to be the best lawyers I have ever had a chance to work with. He took time to learn a...bout my case, never infrated the bill or worried about billing hours, researched the law, wrote every motion that needed to be filed and kept me informed regularly. Ben also took time to care about the person behind the client, and advocated for me vigorously. He is knowledgable about the law in Alaska, and the judicial process and when it came to making deals, he was very informed and briefed me regularly on what was doing. Trust me, this is the best you can get...

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
