About Benjamin
Biography
I focus my practice on trial advocacy representing individuals harmed by the negligence of others and families that have lost a loved one due to the negligence of others. I am Board Certified as a Specialist in Civil Trial by The Florida Bar and have tried numerous cases throughout central and southwest Florida. Just over 1% of the more than 100,000 lawyers in Florida are Board Certified in Civil Trial. I also received an AV Preeminent Peer Review Rating by Martindale-Hubbell, which is based on peer review by judges and other attorneys. This is the highest rating an attorney can receive and only approximately 5% of the lawyers in the United States are AV Rated.
I am a native Floridian. I grew up in Lakeland, FL and attended the University of South Florida in Tampa graduating in 2000 with a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration. I then attended Regent University School of Law in Virginia Beach and received my Juris Doctor in 2006. I then returned to Florida to practice law. Since becoming a member of the Florida Bar, I have concentrated my practice on personal injury, wrongful death, and insurance disputes.

Great attorney that really cares about the client
I hired Ben for a car accident case and he did an outstanding job representing me. He answered all of my questions and was always available to talk. At the end of the day he got me a great result under very difficult circumstances. I can't recommend him enough.
