Our Winning Legal Team

Rick and Kelly have been close friends for 20 years. Having practiced criminal law almost exclusively, they decided to focus on personal injury cases in 2024.

“We both had some had some bad experiences with insurance adjusters trying to get out of their responsibilities to our clients in serious injury cases.” After many conversations, DeToto & Benavides was started.

We will use our decades of experience to help seek justice for those seriously injured.

Unlike most civil lawyers, we have been in courtrooms almost every day for most of our careers. From contested hearings, jury selection and trying cases, we both have earned reputations as excellent and fearless attorneys. We know how to effectively argue to judges and juries because we have been doing it for decades.

We are also affiliated with a large, national civil litigation firm that gives us the resources to handle the most serious and complicated cases. This includes big rig accidents, wrongful death, product liability and oil field cases.

However, unlike most large civil law firms, we are available 24/7 and will personally communicate with our clients.
