A knowledgeable professional Bennett is able to give great explanations. Mr Dalton has stayed on top of my case for years. I had a great deal of anxiety and many reservations about what was next for me when I was injured. Mr Dalton's explanation of how things would work out for me has been right on. From day one Mr Dalton has seen to it I received what I was entitled to medically and monetarily. At the same time greatly reducing my anxiety over my situation. I couldn't. In good faith recommend anyone else

I found Mr. Dalton very easy to understand. Although I may not have heard the words I wanted to hear he let me know where I stood regarding my particular situation. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of his services related to workman's comp. He made me feel very comfortable and at ease which is huge for me. I would not hesitate obtaining his services again should there be a need.

I've dealt with a lot of attorneys and Bennett is one of the few that was able to review my case with an open mind. He was able to give me realistic expectations and was empathetic to the "employee" in a worker's comp claim. Unfortunately it appears that I missed the filing deadline to move forward with my claim. However, I wish the hearings office would have let me know that before they even scheduled the hearing. Even after all that, Bennett was kind in breaking the bad news to me and I would call him back in a nanosecond if I ever find myself in another work comp situation and refer anyone who would listen to him and his firm! Thank you Bennett!

When you retain an Attorney, especially a Worker Compensation Attorney, you want an Attorney who is knows the Law, defends your rights, and is there when you need to speak to them. I just described Mr. Dalton, who is your Attorney for the legal issues, who is a Counselor during your legal fight for the due benefits, and a friend when needed during the legal process. All of the attributes described above define Mr. Bennett Dalton, as he will be yout Attorney, your Counselor, and your Friend during your legal fight, which are attributes needed to win the legal fight for your Rights and Benefits under Worker Compensation Laws! I contacted Mr. Dalaton on a matter related to Police Officers and Firefighters who suffer a Line of Duty Injury and he was available 24/7 and was very helpful in providing information and guidance with our legal matters but unfortunately our issues were not in his legal practice but did provide directional information that helped us to follow the correct legal parh. Just a final note, Bennett is an Attorney who has Integrity, which is a trait not seen in every licensed some attorneys! If and when you contact Mr. Dalton you will be retaining an Attorney that will represent you and achieve the Benefits you worked for as an Oregon Injured Employee! Respectfully, JJ

Bennett was very prompt to respond to my emails and his responses were not abrupt like an attorney that I had previously spoken to. We have decided to contact him for a consult.
