It's an honor and a privilege to be a member of the Virginia State Bar, and I awake thankful everyday that I'm a lawyer with the opportunity to help people in need.  Whether you've received a speeding ticket, you've been charged with a serious felony, you've been injured in an automobile accident, or you have an issue with your family, I believe I can help you.  I have a diverse practice with an emphasis on criminal, personal injury, and domestic relations law.  If the case could end up in front of a judge or jury, chances are that the case falls within my expertise.. I grew up in South Boston, Virginia, and after graduating from VMI I worked for three years in the healthcare construction industry.  I eventually decided I wanted to be a lawyer, and after law school I became a prosecutor in Southampton and Mecklenburg County.  During my time as a prosecutor, I tried numerous felony and misdemeanor criminal cases in front of judges and juries.  I then entered private practice, where I've continued to broaden my practice.  I represent large companies, single mothers, college students, business people, construction workers, and everyone in between.  There is no case too big or small, and I pride myself on having honest communication with all my clients.  I never promise a successful outcome, only that I will do everything in my power to get a favorable result, fight as hard as I can, and handle your case with the utmost integrity.. I spend most of my free time with my wife, Elizabeth, at our home here in Richmond.  I enjoy spending time with friends and family when I'm not at the office.  I'm an avid college football fan and spend Fall Saturdays pulling hard for Elizabeth's alma mater, The University of Alabama Crimson Tide.  In the Winter I enjoy watching college basketball and try not to miss many UVA games.  When the weather warms up, I enjoy spending as much time as possible outside, and I especially enjoying grilling different types of meat and fish.  We're proud members of First Presbyterian Church and try to stay as active as we can with church functions.. I hope this introduction tell you a littel about more than just my law practice.  If you have questions about a legal matter, please do not hesitate to contact me.  I'm here to help and look forward to speaking with you soon.. Ben

I am a defense attorney because I firmly believe everyone deserves to be treated with basic human dignity. No matter where people come from, or what they are accused of doing, everyone deserves this basic level of respect. I also believe in the Constitution. We are guaranteed rights under the law and our rights only exist as long as there are people that are willing to defend them. I am proud of the work I do. Being a defense attorney is not just a job to me; it is what I do to serve our community and to fight for the type of world I want my own children to live in.. There are few feelings more thrilling than hearing the words “not guilty”. I love going to trial, arguing cases, and the strategy leading up to it. However, I also recognize that my duties as a lawyer extend beyond the courtroom. I take my role as a Counselor at Law seriously. All of my clients are unique and I work hard to understand their particular needs. I often encounter clients who are facing more than just legal problems and who are genuinely suffering. I take a more holistic approach and try to encourage strategies that help them get their lives going in a better direction. I genuinely care. That is not weakness; it is a point of pride.
