LARRY
“Ben was a staunch ally, candid, committed to serving my best interests and kept me informed throughout the divorce proceedings, handling things promptly and representing me with steady conviction.”
DALYA.
“Ben got the job done and the results exceeded my expectations. After 6 years of refusing extended time in the summer with our daughter, my coparent decided to sue me for 50/50 after my partner moved in. Sadly, I had never gotten a custody order in place because I didn’t see this coming. Ben immediately saw my situation for what it was, and saw right through my ex and his manipulative tactics.”
