Ben created 23 Legal in 2012. He would have a grey hair for every day since then, but he’s also lost a lot of hair since 2012 too. Oh well. Ben lives in Mount Prospect with his wife Kerry. You can find him on the weekend watching his 10-year-old son play baseball or listening to his 12-year-old daughter play the piano. As a lawyer, his favorite part of the job is cutting through the legal mumbo jumbo for his clients in an attempt to make the process as smooth and relaxed as possible.
