Ben is an affordable startup lawyer!

We found Ben in an online search for a startup lawyer. We met with Ben and were immediately surprised how comfortable he was to speak with. He is friendly, knowledgeable, and a fast worker, which translates into affordable law services. With industry standards in the $300 an hour range, Ben's $200 an... hour range is exceptional. Ben helped our startup incorporate, secure health insurance, negotiate employee contracts, NDA's, and more. Ben isn't just our Lawyer, he's a friend. He's available to bounce ideas off as are the rest of his team. The folks at Ben's firm SNS are young and well-informed and interested in the success and growth of your business.

A designer's lawyer

Ben used to work as a graphic designer, and so he was very knowledgeable and helpful to me when I formed and LLC and had him review my standard client contracts. He legally clarified the language in my contracts without turning them into super verbose mumbo-jumbo (which both my clients and I are ver...y happy about). Also, since he has experience on the other side of the lawyering table, he is very clear about when he is/isn't billing and absolutely refuses to sneakily charge for brief phone calls and emails. His attitude is along the lines of "there will be plenty of time for me to make money off you as your business grows", which I think is the perfect attitude for my lawyer to have---he wants to be in it with me for the long haul rather than just a few overpriced, unproductive meetings. Ben works with a lot of small businesses and start ups, and he was adamant that I provide him with some promotional material about my information design company so he could pass it along to some of his other clients. I've already referred him to friends of mine who are looking to get their businesses in legal order.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
