Biography

Why did you become an attorney?
The underlying education was the primary reason for the desire to first become an attorney. Obviously, to make a good living and enjoy what you do is the ultimate career. I have found that becoming an attorney was half the battle, becoming a great attorney involves mastering the art of legal persuasion, which is best acquired by experience, and years of training. The reward of client satisfaction truly makes me happy. I had a very strong influence with my Father, Joseph L. Benson, Sr. who was a personal injury lawyer (and received the 2011 Nevada Lifetime Achievement Award). He was instrumental in my decisions throughout my young adulthood and early law practice.

What makes your law firm unique?
I still consider us a boutique law firm, even though we have grown to have 4 offices and 23 employees in Southern and Northern Nevada; our lawyers have the same client driven philosophy. We have always maintained the motto that what distinguishes us from others is our concern for our clients and that we will go over the top to make them happy. Where we really shine are the complicated cases, where our experience makes all the difference. Our Internet reviews tell the story—anything but 5 stars is unacceptable. Client service is what we do best.

Legal Answers
Q. January 10, I was driving on the main road when a semi-truck that was exiting a parking lot t-boned my right back door
A: It's completely understandable that you feel it's not fair to be left without a car when the accident wasn't your fault. In such cases, you have rights to seek compensation for your losses, including damage to your vehicle.

It's a good move to see a chiropractor to ensure there are no underlying injuries, as your health is a top priority. When dealing with the other party's insurance, remember that their primary goal is to minimize their payout. Be thorough in documenting your expenses, including medical bills, car repair estimates, and any other related costs.

In cases where the other party's insurance offers less than what you owe on the car, gap insurance should come into play to cover the difference. It's crucial to review your policy and ensure that the full amount owed is covered.

If you encounter any difficulties or feel that you're not being treated fairly, consulting with an attorney specializing in personal injury or insurance claims may be a wise step. They can provide legal guidance and help you pursue the compensation you deserve.
