Client Reviews:

“Mr. Tyree and his staff was professional and courteous from beginning to end. I had a dispute over a family heirloom. Mr. Tyree was confident that it would not need to go to trial, he had the dispute settled and finalized in a short amount of time.  I am thankful for Mr. Tyree and his staff for a job well done, that was handled with tact and care.”

“Mr. Tyree’s legal expertise has protected me and my rights regarding a contract dispute. He is very responsive and has offered many solutions, he is open minded and is willing to research all of the possible avenues. He has kept me well informed during the entire process – very personalized service.”

“Working with Mr. Tyree is always extremely easy. He is very thorough and very willing to answer all of my questions. I have used his services for business litigation matters, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the way Mr. Tyree handles my business needs.”

“Ben represented me in a personal injury suit. We sued for medical costs, lost wages and pain and suffering following an auto accident where the other driver ran a stop light at 50 mph and hit me broadside. I suffered a herniated disc and nerve damage to my right arm. Ben was most helpful, kept me informed of all my options each step of the way. We are now waiting for a final settlement number from the insurance company.”

“I hired Ben to assist me with the formation of an LLC. Since I had a minority partner on this deal he also advised us and created a purchase agreement. From start to finish Ben was responsive and attentive to all of our questions. Additionally, Ben has also helped my current business with collections and day to day business advising. Ben has been great for my businesses and I would recommend any of the services he offers.”

“Mr. Tyree represented me in a personal injury (car accident) case. He was recommended by my daughter and hired to represent me. He consulted with me regarding getting generous compensation for my totaled vehicle and a settlement based upon my injuries and medical bills. Mr. Tyree kept me informed regarding how the case was progressing, he contacted me regarding what I would consider a just settlement, and he handled all aspects of the case for me, including repayment to Medicare for medical bills they had paid. He was very professional. I felt very well represented. I will contact him again if I need legal services in the future. I highly recommend him.”

“Mr. Tyree was professional and knowledgeable while still being compassionate during a difficult time for me. He was diligent in protecting my interests and successful in the outcome of my legal matter.”
