FORST OFF I MET MR.COX AT HIS OFFICE......STARBUCKS YES STARBUCKS HE DOESNT EVEN HAVE AN OFFICE!!!!!!! Mr. Cox Charged us over $3,000 & did absolutely nothing for me in the 2 months I had him (never even attended one hearing, I decided to fire him for not knowing his job what so ever, thank god I didnt go in with him!) He asked for multiple checks from my father (like the previous comments of his ex-clients) one day he would come & ask for a check to be in a certain name then the next he would say write it out to me instead. We let that slide but when I asked him about my case & why it says its my 1st DUI & not my second his game plan was "if they don't say anything neither am i"... it took my new attorney 2 sec to call down the DA to see if I was ARD eligible (which I was not but Ben COX told me several times "ARD is an option as is drug court" DRUG COURT??? Are you freaking kidding me??? Thats for people who caught SERIOUS DRUG CHARGES EX: Crack sale to Police, Heroin Possession, etc.....not a 2nd dui! I could go on all day about his misconduct and lack of knowledge. He's as worth as much as you can throw him....not very far. He broke our confidentiality right away and told several people I know about my alleged charges & told them Im going to jail for 6 months!!!!. My new lawyer got me general impairment at the 1st hearing alone! (Thank god I didn't have Ben CoX there he would buried me) & they offered 45 days...long story short I went and got a HIGH NAME lawyer & ultimately the DUI was dropped. Shout out to the Greeks lets just say that. BUT PLEASE PEOPLE I DONT HAVE THE TIME IN THE DAY DO NOT USE HIM!!! HE DOESNT HAVE AN OFFICE!! HES A JOKE!
I was referred to Mr. Cox through a family member in the beginning of 2013. I explained to him that I had an attorney that just couldn't give my case the time it needed. He agreed to complete the remainder of my case for $2,500. Any thing Mr. Cox says to you make him put it in writing. All this lawyer achieved for me in my case was a over a year of continuances. He did no work in my defense or bringing up evidence on my behalf, which is what an attorney is paid to do. When I asked him details about my case standing or addressed Mr. Cox on his work ethic he became very indignant and used highly unprofessional language toward me. He informed me that charges in my case had been lifted when in fact, they had not, which I did not learn of, until the day of my trial!! He then tried to convince me that the language he and court officials used I wouldn't understand, so it was best not to question him and let him handle my court proceedings. I'm a college student, it may not be in law, still as a client, I know I have a right to be informed about my case. And, as an attorney, this is his job to inform me. After countless attempts to discuss my case in detail with Mr. Cox, a year into my case he called me claiming he was unaware of my plaintiffs injuries. The claim of these injuries was the reason I hired Mr. Cox in the first place. He also tried to tell me that my prior record was the reason I would serve time on this case, which also makes no sense. Record or not, there are facts in my case that need to be presented. Without presenting my case clearly, how are you defending me? And why wont you discuss the facts of my case? All Mr. Cox seemed to want to discuss was money outside of what we agreed on, for work that I had honestly not seen him do. Clearly, my comprehensive ability is not the issue here. Nothing, not one thing I asked this attorney to do did he honor, not even what he agreed on before payment. He refused to document payments after going to my sick grandfathers house and demanding two checks, one for $400 and the other for $700. Mind you, I had already paid Mr. Cox the $2,500 agreed on. Lastly, his courtroom conduct is unprofessional. My cell phone was accidently left on (outside of the courtroom, mind you) and when it rang this gentlemen literally shouted at me. This man made me look like a fool in front of the courts and the DA with his unprofessional conduct and lack of work on my case. The result has been an injustice to me. My family member that referred me is equally disappointed. They had worked in different departments for the state for years although she was unaware of Mr. Cox's negative reputation. Several other attorney's in the area also will give you the same reference of this attorney. I only wish I had thought to google Mr. Cox before hiring him. The other reviews here refer to this attorney as a bully and a salesman and I agree! If you are a woman I especially recommend you find another attorney. This man is a nightmare. I don't understand his rating here as "good" I have been forced to hire a public defender as my third attorney in this case. If I had had the money to hire another attorney sooner, I would have. Not doing so may have ruined my case.
This Lawyer is nothing but a salesman. He collects your money and refuse to do any work on your case. He harassed me for his money and after he got paid he refused to do any work. He is very lazy and know nothing at all, please be careful and don't hire this man.
I paid this lawyer over 12 grand in terms of money and he completely ruined my case. he never showed up for my court dates and failed to inform me about the outcomes. I know win and loss is part of case but I think I lost my case because of this lawyer. Now even after this he never answers my phone calls and unwilling to help me out. I wouldnt recommend this lawyer because of his professional misconduct and unwillingness to help clients.
