I needed an attorney as I was facing a possible felony and I found Mr. Benson.He is professional in every sense of the word.He explained all my options to me in a calm,thoughtful manner that I could understand.His "take charge" attitude got my charges reduced and eliminated the tons of stress.I was under. If you are looking for a great attorney,look no further than Mr.Walter Benson.

We recently used Walt to represent us for an issue a family member was facing in Summit County. He was fantastic!! He guided us through the process and gave us the best possible outcome.



Although Walt has handled far bigger cases than ours, he always treated us as if we were his most important. He was quick to answer our questions and address our concerns. Walt was a calming force and a steady hand that made the whole process bearable and, most importantly, uneventful.



Walter Benson is the type of attorney that gives lawyers a good name!!!

Priceless

Mr.Benson went out of his way to get me charge knocked down.I called Mr. Benson on a Monday night and he returned my call Tuesday morning before my Court case gave me some advice about my case. I then retain his services which he promptly worked on. I had my court date moved up because of his professional approach. Within ten days all my legal matters were behind me. I couldn't thank him enough. If you need a DUI, OVI lawyer there shouldn't be no other choice then Mr. Benson.

Better than I thought ! ! !

If you got a D.W.I. / D.U.I. you need this man on your side. He got most of the charges dropped. I was in and out of court in two hours a free man. Mr Benson was worth every penny of what he charged me which was very reasonable.

HE DID A LOT BETTER THAN I THOUGHT COULD EVER HAPPEN. If your in trouble and reading this look no futher pick up the phone and call him. You wont be disappointed.

Thank-you Mr Benson Steff
