Kaufman Nichols Kaufman PLLC Ogden Ut review signals at a glance

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ There are good attorneys. There are great attorneys. And then, somewhere far above them all, there is Dylan. When I first came to him, my life situation was completely upside down. This was a custody case in Utah, which anyone familiar with family court knows can be one of the hardest battles a father can face. For nearly nine years, things had gone the wrong direction and it felt like the system had already written the ending. Then Dylan stepped into the picture with the calm confidence of someone who has clearly stared into legal chaos before and decided it was not that impressive. He studied every detail of the case, prepared relentlessly, and moved through the process with the kind of focus that makes you think there might be something supernatural going on behind the scenes. What happened next still feels like something out of a legend. Through Dylan’s work, my entire situation reversed. In one decisive legal victory, he helped right nearly nine years of wrongs. I walked into the process feeling defeated and walked out feeling like someone had hit the reset button on my life. If the legal profession had its own mythology, Dylan would already be in it. Part guardian angel, part master strategist, part mythical champion of justice. The kind of person who walks into a courtroom looking like a regular human attorney but secretly has wings folded under his suit jacket and a flaming sword of legal brilliance hidden in his briefcase. While some attorneys argue cases, Dylan goes to battle for people. My children, my girlfriend, and I will forever be grateful for the impact Dylan has had on our lives. What he helped accomplish changed the entire direction of our future. Generations from now, my grandchildren and great-grandchildren will hear the story of the moment everything changed, and somewhere in that story there will be a slightly unbelievable character known only as the legendary Dylan. If you ever find yourself in a situation where everything feels stacked against you and you need someone in your corner who will fight with intelligence, courage, and a level of preparation that borders on heroic, Dylan is the attorney you want. Five stars feels wildly insufficient, but Google will not let me give him the full constellation he deserves. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I hired Ben Larsen to represent me with my custody case. I trusted Ben with something very scary! He stood by my side the entire way. He eased my emotions. He had EMPATHY!!! When it was time to fight, he fought HARD and we WON! He never misled me, he listened and he made me feel safe. I will forever appreciate Ben and I’ll forever recommend Ben! I can’t say enough great things. He’s worth the price. That’s for sure. Thank you to Julie aswell! She was also very helpful and would answer my questions quickly! I appreciate you both so much!

Professional and Responsive! The firm exceeded my expectations for legal services. I would refer them to my friends & family.

I finalized a divorce today that dragged on for more than three years, and I felt compelled to write this review immediately. This has been one of the most stressful experiences of my life—and that’s coming from someone with 20 years of military service. Through it all, Dylon Benson of Kaufman, Nichols, and Kaufman was exceptional. He supported me at every turn, went above and beyond, and consistently laid out my options with honesty and awareness of my current financial and legal situations at every step of my case. I can say with complete confidence that no other attorney would have shown the same dedication. Thanks to Dylon’s hard work, I received a fantastic ruling in my favor. If you want a lawyer who will truly fight for you, look no further! Dylan, I sincerely thank you!

It is generous to say that Ben Larsen and his team are skilled at hyperbole. For reference see the sample picture of the moving van large enough to pack a house into.

I am extremely satisfied with Alex. From the beginning he looked at all the evidence and went through all the possible options and outcomes before advising me. He was spot on with his advise. His fees were reasonable and did not nickle and dime me. He has a fabulous staff and definitely would recommend him.

Dylan Benson has been an incredible advocate. He is responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about his clients. During a very overwhelming time, he helped me feel supported and protected. I highly recommend him to anyone needing strong, compassionate legal representation. His professionalism, empathy, and dedication mean more than I can put into words. I am so thankful to have him in my corner.

Tyson Stokes and Stephen Leech were wonderful to work with. My situation was long and drawn out and they walked me through every step and answered my countless questions.

Mr. Alexander Smart and his team did a fantastic job reducing my Class B misdemeanor to an Infraction. l highly recommend Mr. Smart if you need a good attorney. He kept me well informed about my case, responded to all of my emails and texts, explained the ordinances and gave me legal advice and representation resulting in a positive outcome.

Kris Kaufman provided excellent advice during my divorce. Kris did a great job communication and kept me informed at all benchmark occurrences. Kris was very friendly and professional, I appreciated the proactive work ethic and all efforts from the entire team.

I filed a formal complaint on Dylan Benson through the Office of Professional Conduct in Utah. He is a fairly new attorney with only 5 yrs. experience. The first instance of corruption and lack of integrity from this attorney was when he filed a TRO to try to take my children from me to help his client have a financial upper hand through the divorce process. The TRO was about 99% lies. He was ok about lying to the court I suppose… anything for a win, right? Thankfully, the judge didn’t sign, judge saw through the bs… however still was emotionally traumatizing to me, already being in emotional distress from subsequent personal legal matters. Then, I dealt with this attorney yet again recently and he was dishonest yet again- produced misleading statements, and just outright made false statements. The judge had to correct him multiple times. He was sloppy. I will appeal this decision but I feel the most important thing weighing on my mind is this attorney’s lack of professional conduct. Now I am not versed on legal matters or proceedings, but I know corruption when I see it. I am not afraid of him, and he knows it. I directly called out his corruption in front of the judge. I am just saying this as any other person leaving an honest review of their experience. No one should have to put up with a corrupt or abusive lawyer. You can get the truth out of someone without trying to frame them or self incriminate on something they didn’t do that is say unrelated to current case, all well knowing they have had a traumatic year. When I see corruption, I call it out. I defended myself. He didn’t like that. I am not afraid of him.

Ben Larson is THE WORST attorney in Ogden, Utah. His incompetence is incomprehensible. Can't believe he actually continues to hold his professional license. I struggle every day with how much I trusted Ben Larson with my life and the amount of my life savings he gave away to my ex because of his lack of interest in me, his paying client. He admitted he did not prepare for hearings. Didn't have time, he said. Did not review any documents in our year and a half of negotiations. Didn't know the difference between Petitoner and Respondent in papers and would not correct his errors. He "forgot" several times to notify me, his client, of deadlines and court dates, which he missed. No responses to me, his client, on requests for advice on strategy. To this day, I wake up at night angry at the attorney who I was ensured would get me a fair, equitable settlement after 40 years of marriage and Mr. BYU attorney handed it all over to my husband. Ben wouldn't even take the time to confirm I was legally divorced and left me hanging. Thanks for nothing. At every office visit he was constantly on the phone fighting with his wife instead of focusing on the client paying $300 an hour to get nothing for his lack of professionalism. What a great guy. I lost hundreds of thousands of dollars of life savings thanks to Ben and his illerate assistant, Lynn. He also told me to "just give it to him" several times and convinced me to give my ex all of the equity in the house instead of fighting for the half I already paid for and half of the house I legally owned. He argued with me and so I lost the half of the house I already paid for. He should be disbarred. He is the worst person on the planet. He got me a total settlement of $10,000 on $2M joint estate. DON'T TRUST HIM!
