Ben advocates for clients in real estate matters, construction disputes, and commercial litigation. He is board certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization in Construction Law.
Before becoming an attorney, Ben spent 15 years in the construction industry. He worked his way from apprentice to master electrician, estimated and installed building automation systems, and served as a project manager and trade compliance manager in the services division of a Fortune 50 home-improvement company. Ben finished college and attended law school on nights and weekends so he could work with clients to resolve disputes that distract from their calling.
Ben began his legal career at Thompson Coe Cousins & Irons, LLP, where he defended contractors, title companies, and professionals in all stages of litigation and became a partner in the Professional Liability section. He also represented sureties in litigation and project workouts while practicing at Strasburger & Price, LLP (now Clark Hill PLC). With his roots in southeast Collin County and Rockwall County, Ben brought his legal practice home to Rockwall, Texas.
Ben now counsels clients in a variety of legal matters and brings real-world experience that results in the ability to solve problems practically.
Ben and his wife Mary have been blessed with two wonderful daughters and a pretty good son-in-law. In his spare time, Ben works on his rusty, old cars when he isn’t looking for tools that he accidentally hid from himself.
