Protection order

I hired John benefiel to help with an protection order that was served to me regarding my children. Me not having an legal background I was completely lost. I haved someone before Mr. Benefiel and it turned out to be an scam an I lost the money I sent to him. Mr. Benefiel seen my submission and calle...d me within minutes of me submitting it. He helped me the whole way and the case ended up getting dismissed. I'm very pleased with the experience and I'll definitely refer him, and would love to work with him again in the near future. He's the best!

Highly recommended!!!

My very first meeting with Mr. Benefiel left me no doubt as to his deep understanding of the court system and his ability to help me. He is knowledgeable, personable, and hardworking. I felt that I was seen and heard I will be recommending him to my family and friends in the future.

Graduate Student

John was very professional and understanding of my DUI case. He did everything in his power to drop my charge to the lowest offense, a reckless driving. John was very organized and showed up to court early and prepared. John did everything for me and only had me complete what was necessary to get a w...in in court. I would definitely consider hiring John again as he really knows his stuff and does his job well!

Excellent Lawyer A++

Mr. Benefiel helped guide and advise me through some difficult legal issues. He was calm and kind and gave excellent, informed guidance that eased my situation greatly. I would send anyone in need of a lawyer his way. Professional, generous and great humanitarian qualities I wish I saw in more lawyer...s.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"John was a consummate professional. He handled client's with care, compassion and curtesy. He was successful in more than one instance in having a DUI case dismissed. He has a thorough understanding of the current laws and when an issue arises the requires his research, he attacks the unknown with as much zeal as his usual representation of a client. I am happy to have worked wit h him and would consider him a resource in the community should I ever need to run an idea or theory of a case by him."
