Benton & Benton have been serving the people of Phenix City, Russell County and Lee County going back to 1979. Founded by William (Billy) J. Benton, Jr., the firm then welcomed his father, William (Bill) Benton, Sr., a former Russell County District Attorney. Bill felt he could serve more people by going into private practice. In 2000, Billy’s son, Brian, joined the firm. Even with the generational change, the lawyers at Benton & Benton still offer clients over 70 years of combined legal experience. We’re also still committed to the same down-to-earth, family-oriented way of doing business.
