Ben is one of the best attorneys I have ever met. He has handled a few different cases for me and each case he handled exceptionally well. He is friendly and down to earth with his clients but tough in the courtroom. He is easy to talk … More to and to communicate with (not once in the years he has been my attorney have I ever needed to speak with an assistant, paralegal or secretary) and he’s dedicated to his clients-even needy clients like me! One of the worst parts of moving my family to Chicago was knowing Ben would no longer be able to handle any legal problems I had! You can tell that it’s more than just a job for him, he truly cares about his clients and sees them as more than just another case.

Ben guided me throughout a process that should have been intensely difficult, but it never crossed that line thanks to his service. Legal processes can be intimidating, but Ben made me feel taken care of from the beginning and he proved … More that he had my best interest in mind. He showed the utmost respect for my situation and provided helpful information and feedback for the decisions I had to make. Ben went above and beyond to help me and I cannot thank him enough for this!

I have had experience with several attorneys that made me think that their inefficiency and lack of motivation was "normal practice"in the field of law. However, I met with Ben for modification of child custody/support. Ben … More was like no other attorney I've ever spoke with and I knew I wanted him to represent me. He kept me updated, answered emails, phone calls and always discussed what the next step would be. I was blessed to have found the very best attorney in St. Louis; Ben Aranda. I refer him to anyone I know. Ben Aranda is "best of the best" of St. Louis attorneys, but his fees are very, very reasonable. If you need an attorney, don't waste your time looking anywhere else. Call Aranda Law Firm.

Ben is a amazing person. I met him in a bad point in my life when my original divorce attorney got disbarred. And literally met ben the day of my divorce trial. My divorce still ended up a diaster but I can honestly say it was no fault … More of bens. He actually had my back in several other cases through the next few years and did great and let me make affordable payment plans. I would recommend Aranda Law firm to anyone in need of a great attorney......Thanks Ben

He does his research, knows and understands the courts, law, and … More will stand up for you and your rights each and every time. I respect the way he does not over promise or sugar coats things. it is apparent he has relationships and is respected by judges and other attorneys.

I, too, hired Mr. Aranda after my previous attorney failed to adequately advocate for me in my divorce. Immediately, Ben put me at ease and let me know there was no need to worry about the "malicious tactics" of the opposing counsel … More (and my soon to be ex-wife). Divorce is hard enough, and I'm so thankful to have Ben representing me so I can be a responsible father and get on with my life. Ben keeps it real, and he fights hard for his clients. He deserves to be recognized with the highest jurisprudence commendation for his diligence. If you are in need of a superb divorce lawyer, he's your guy! God bless you Mr. Aranda!

How We Practice

Ben Aranda, founding attorney for the Aranda Law Firm, began his career in the corporate environment of a big law firm. He quickly realized that the interests of ordinary people often go unrepresented. The Aranda Law Firm was founded to ensure that people of all walks have access to quality legal representation when the need arises.

Few family law matters have only one cause and one solution. When resolving any family law matter, it is important to consider all the possible options and outcomes. We are committed to providing comprehensive solutions and satisfaction for every client. We take a realistic approach to our client’s cases and ensure that our client’s needs are met every step of the way.

Through experience, knowledge, and effective communication, we can work together to maximize your rights in the legal system, maximize the time with your children, maximize your share of the financial resources accumulated during a marriage. By working together, we can maximize these rights while minimizing the stress and strain that these family law situations often bring.

So thankful

I am so thankful to my attorney Ben Aranda for handling my case and putting up with me during this emotional roller coaster ride. I am so grateful for your hard work and dedication to resolving issues that otherwise would have remained unresolved. Your knowledge, compassion, and advice has kept me sane through this whole process. I can honestly say, you have restored my faith not only in the legal system, but in people general. Once again, I can see all the goodness that surrounds me. It’s been a very long time. There are certain people we come across who can have little or a great impact on our lives. You have had such a tremendous positive impact on my life, and I will be forever grateful. I can’t imagine what our world would be if people such as yourself didn’t exist. Thank you Ben!

Ben was great.

My case required that he travel to southern Missouri multiple times and it drug out for over a year. Ben was flexible with me with respect to paying his fees as well rather than requiring all of the money up front in the form of a retainer. In the end, Ben met all of the goals I set as part of my initial consultation with him.

I would use him again

Ben Aranda is a good lawyer he takes time with you to make sure you understand what is going on about your case and answers your questions and concerns. His fees are reasonable and fair. I would use him again if needed.

I have recommended him to friends and family

I had not only a child custody case but owned a house with my ex, so estate issues. I was not married but might as well been. Ben helped keep me calm and understood things I would bend on and not bend on. He communicated everything quickly with me. I usually got responses to emails within 24 hours, and if it was something complicated he would call. He was assertive with the other lawyer, and did not allow her to push things off. I have recommended him to friends and family. Hopefully I will not need his services in the future but if I do, he will be my first call.

Chrissy

Great

Mr. Aranda has been great. He’s a very good lawyer and has been helping me every way that he can on my case. I plan on hiring him to help get my 11 yr old son back in my home as soon as we are done with the first case.

Dianna

Helpful

Mr. Aranda is really helpful he answered all my questions and then some.

Kimberly

More Than Helpful

Mr. Aranda was more than helpful in the 2 cases he represented me in. Both were (what I would consider) victories. He’s a young, hungry, determined lawyer willing to go the extra mile. I cannot thank him enough.

Kept Me Calm and Collected

Excellent Attorney!

I have now used Ben Aranda for a divorce/child custody case and a adoption case. I have been tremendously pleased with his services.
