Ben has successfully completed internal investigations for a variety of organizations, using his dogged investigatory approach to more effectively question witnesses, gather intelligence, and uncover the truth.
Over a decade ago as an Assistant District Attorney, Ben began building a reputation for novel approaches to complex problems. From the Gun Prosecution Task Force, to the Boston Municipal Court, to the Unsolved Shooting Initiative, Ben was repeatedly selected to supervise, train, and lead prosecutors and other law enforcement members on case strategy, courtroom advocacy, and investigatory techniques. As a trial attorney, Ben has prevailed in homicide cases, felony assault cases, and domestic violence cases, as both a prosecutor and defender. Ben regularly advises clients who find themselves at the intersection of divorce, abuse prevention, and criminal proceedings.
Among his many successes as a prosecutor was the coordination of a joint state and federal wiretap investigation codenamed Operation Whirlwind, which dismantled a large-scale international drug syndicate. His skills as an interrogator and his ability to find the truth led him to work extensively with the Drug Enforcement Administration, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and Department of Homeland Security. His career is marked by innovation, discretion, and results.
Ben has appeared regularly as a legal analyst on television for WCVB in Boston, and consulted for the Netflix documentary “This is a Robbery” about the Isabella Stewart Gardner heist. He has been a guest lecturer for the National Association of Divorce Professionals on the topic of criminal law. He graduated Bates College, magna cum laude, in 2004, and Suffolk University Law School, cum laude, in 2008.
