Awesome in and out of courtroom

When you first meet been your first impression will be wow he looks young. Don't cast judgement until you read this. I currently have a federal case that has been going on since 2009. I just recently had a two day hearing where Ben took the lead role in attacking the prosecutors expert witness as w...ell as their theory. Not only did Ben meet my expectations but he truly exceeded them. He was very organized, methodical and absolutely NOT intimidated by the Government or their expert witnesses. In Layman's terms Ben was like a Lion in a cat fight ferocious. His calmness and precision timing of questions is something of beauty unless your on the other end. Ben not only is a awesome trial lawyer but he is also a genuine person who listens and cares about you as a human. I never have once felt like Ben has just given me Lip service, he always has been honest straight forward and concerned. When you hire Ben you gain more than a great Lawyer, you also gain a friend who truly cares about your case as well as you and your family. Bottom line is I am proud Ben is my lawyer and was extremely proud I could call him my lawyer when we were in the courtroom. I would recommend anyone who wants the best of the best lawyers to hire him, you will not regret it.

"As a prosecutor, I worked a case with Ben as opposing counsel that was challenging for both of us. He handled the case intelligently, professionally, and was a great advocate for his client. It says a lot about Ben that Howard Weintraub, a renowned criminal defense attorney, promoted Ben from Associate to Partner. I endorse Ben Alper!"

Relationship: Co-worker

"I highly and enthusiastically recommend Benjamin B. Alper whether it is for representation in a DUI case or a multidimensional intricate federal criminal trial. I have the pleasure and privilege of having Ben work with me as my criminal defense associate. Ben is gifted with exceptional writing skills and the capability of analyzing complex criminal matters that is found only in seasoned practicing attorneys! He has my upmost respect for his trial skills and tireless preparation for all his cases. Recently, Ben undertook detailed research in a federal criminal case, and wrote extremely persuasive objections to the Presentence Report, culminating in our client escaping a sure life sentence. I categorically declare that Ben is one of Atlanta’s rising stars in the criminal defense arena. Observing hundreds of lawyers throughout my career, I can assure readers of this endorsement, of Ben’s integrity, professionalism and zealous advocacy for his clients."
