He has written for The Times, various legal journals, and appeared on the BBC. In recent years he has been quoted in a range of diverse publications including the Evening Standard, Mail, The Times, Mirror and the New York Post, along with legal publications such as Legal Futures, the Law Society Gazette and the Solicitors Journal.
Ben is an accredited Fellow of the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers (APIL). Through APIL he has been a contributor to working parties on reform of the Fatal Accidents Act 1976, Lord Briggs’ proposals for the introduction of online courts, reforms to the calculation of accommodation claims in catastrophic injury cases, and new sentencing guidelines for gross negligence manslaughter.
Ben is accredited by APIL as an advanced specialist in the fields of brain injury and fatal accidents and is an assessor for APIL’s accreditation schemes in these specialisms. For ten years he was also Secretary of APIL’s National Damages Special Interest Group.
