I contacted him to get my probation modified. Ben did better then that, Ben got my probation terminated and had my record expunged.
Ben was in constant contact with me, keeping me up to date on the status of the case. Ben appeared on my behalf at the hearing. I felt confident having Ben representing me.
You are in good hands with him handling your case.

Ben worked very hard to get me an amazing deal on a complicated DUI/drug case. He gave me a very affordable rate and was extremely communicative and helpful Iin every way. I cannot say enough about how dedicated he was throughout my 2-year case. I ended up with a great outcome and highly recommend him.

I was looking at 3-5 years for a felony dui and Ben kept me out of jail! And got the charges dropped to a misdemeanor. He was very professional and answered all my questions and was always available. Look no where else Ben is the perfect lawyer to defend you!

I called Ben Cates' office in a panic. My husband and I had contacted other offices but they were very vague and we never actually got to speak with a lawyer. Ben himself called me back right away after I left a message at his office and spoke with me about our case! I didn't feel rushed at all, he made me feel like he really cared to give us as much info as he could about what we should do. He even gave us advice against what that another office had told us to do and went into detail as to why we shouldn't do it. He gave us tips and my peace of mind back which was something I hadn't had in quite a while. I can't say enough about this lawyer and that's just from an over the phone consultation! Highly recommend!

My case was not looking good. I was looking at prison time for felony DUI. Out of all the attorneys I consulted with he was the only one who gave me hope and made me feel comfortable. He was also the only attorney to not hear the DMV hearing over the phone, but in person. Of which he won, getting my license with no restrictions. I didn't have to spend a day in jail thanks to Ben. He is the real deal.

Mr. Cates is an Outstanding Attorney. Beside his extremely knowledge and diligence, he always treated his client with cares, compassion and thoughtfulness. Mr. Cates always listened to his client patiently and responsed to the phone calls and texts as soon as possible. Mr. Cates also keeps all of the informations up-to-date for his client right after he left the Court house.
If anyone ever needs a great Lawyer to protect you, I strongly recommend that you should call Mr. Cates Benjamin's office immediately. Your life will be saved.
I don't have enough words to describe how much I admire Mr. Cates excellent knowledge and his wonderful personality... All I could say is:
"Mr. Cates, I sincerely admire you, respect you and deeply appreciate your help and your support".
Best Regards,

Ben is an amazing attorney as well as a wonderful individual. My fiance was being charged with crimes that he did not commit. After contacting several attorneys throughout the IE and hearing their outlandish fees, things began to look bleak. I began thinking that several years of jail time were going to be my fiances only option. Luckily, however, I stumbled across Ben on Avvo. Before giving him a call, I thought for sure he was going to be like all the other attorney's who I had spoken to previously. They were all willing to help, but only for an insanely high fee. Despite this, I trekked forward and gave him a call. That call ended up being the best decision I have ever made. From the get go Ben was nothing more than helpful and reassuring. He got all of my questions answered and guaranteed that he would fight hard to get the false charges against my fiance dropped, and he delivered. Not only that, but Ben went as far as helping me with a immensely affordable payment plan that no other attorney was able to offer. I would highly recommend Ben to any individual that happens to stumble in life. He is of the utmost integrity, professionalism, and all in all a superlative individual. Thank you Ben for all you did and continue to do!

I made the mistake of getting a DUI; it was a very nerve racking and stressful time for me. Ben handled my case and minimized it as much as he could - ultimately it was my fault but comprises were offered because of Ben's involvement. I am grateful to have had him on my team. Was knowledgeable with handling the case; extremely sincere; and always willing to take the time to explain in detail questions I had. Thank you, Ben!
