I am 80 years old and this is not a fair evaluation because I do not know what they do or how they do it. They agreed to represent me and are going a great job. I just sit back and deposit the checks that they send to me.
I first learned of Mr. Vinson when I received his solicitation to represent me in asbestosis litigation. He and his staff had me undergo thorough medical examination, resulting in a confirmed diagnosis of asbestosis. As a result, I have received substantial settlement payments -- and Mr. Vinson has really raked in the bucks for himself!
Ben works hard for his clients to get the best possible results on each case. He always takes the initiative to discover the story of his cases and clients so that they can be most effectively presented to the jury. I would trust Ben to handle any personal injury case.
Ben is a very hard worker and he takes pride in his work and law practice. He is able and willing to put in the time to properly represent his clients. Ben will not be "pushed around" by corporate America and the insurance industry. He stands up for his clients. His study and application of the law is meticulous. Ben pays attention to the details of his cases. Most important, Ben listens to his clients. I highly recommend him.
Ben Vinson is a passionate and dedicated lawyer who puts his all into his cases. I've had the pleasure of working with Ben and observed, first hand, his tremendous work ethic and drive. I highly recommend him.
NAVY VET Ben contacted me June 2015 have pulmonary fibrosis from working in engine room on old oiler. So far Ben doing me well 5 settlement checks so far . Not rich but nice shot in arm after all the suffering since all the unknown suffering since 1974 progressing and no diagnosis till your life is about over
Mr. Vinson had called me in reference to an individual that I had served with and I gave him what information I could. We got to talking after that and I explained to him that I was on oxygen from my time in the Navy, he then asked if I had herd about the meso program and I said that I had and I did not no if I could qualify for the program and he asked me to get some information and send it to him. I did that and he called me back after that and asked if I would like to try for a settlement. And well I'm a gambler and I asked if he would represent me and he said yes. And since then he has taken good care of me.
