About Brian
Biography
Brian Glass is a Virginia personal injury lawyer and partner at BenGlassLaw, where he represents people seriously injured in car accidents, truck accidents, and other life-changing injuries.
Brian has spent his career helping people deal with the challenges that come after a serious injury. He enjoys taking on tough cases, figuring out complicated problems, and helping clients when an insurance company or another party is standing in the way of getting fair compensation.
Brian earned his undergraduate degree from James Madison University after attending Robinson Secondary School in Fairfax. He went on to earn his law degree from William & Mary Law School, where he was named a Benjamin Rush Scholar for excellence in Health Law & Policy.
One of the most significant cases of Brian’s career came in 2022, when a Fairfax County jury awarded more than $4 million to his client after she was seriously injured in a head-on collision with a drunk driver. The verdict included $1 million in punitive damages, making it one of the largest punitive awards ever awarded in a Virginia drunk-driving case.
Brian has been recognized by legal organizations for his work representing injured people. His professional recognition includes:
Super Lawyers — Super Lawyer, 2025–2026
Super Lawyers — Rising Star, 2017–2023

Advice on need to hire a lawyer
Brian was very responsive and spent time understanding my case and providing competent advice.
Posted by Tom | December 13, 2017 | Hired Attorney
In April 2017 I was hit by a car while walking across the street. The best move I made was to call Brian!
Brian is so much more than an injury attorney. When you have been injured it takes something away from you. Brian understands this and his empathy at our first meeting was unexpected. Brian kept me updated on the progress of my case and took away my worries. This allowed me to focus on my recovery...
