Profile

Benjamin “Ben” Kaufman is a devoted attorney with a specialty in civil litigation. Hailing from South Florida, Mr. Kaufman relocated to Orlando, where he earned his bachelor’s degree from the University of Central Florida. Mr. Kaufman graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Florida A&M University College of Law (“FAMU”) and was admitted to the Florida Bar in 2022. In law school he also served as the Executive Editor of the FAMU Law Review, a prestigious academic organization.

 

Mr. Kaufman has a passion for personal injury law and contract litigation. Fresh out of law school, Mr. Kaufman joined a nationwide plaintiff personal injury firm where he evaluated and developed thousands of pre-suit personal injury cases before becoming a civil litigator. There, Mr. Kaufman represented and counseled personal injury clients during the beginning stages of their cases, working to investigate and amicably settle claims or transition them into litigation. In litigation, Mr. Kaufman prides himself in his ability to both identify the key issues in a lawsuit and explore them through discovery and depositions. He brought this unique perspective to DSB&C where he enthusiastically represents clients with an approach grounded in professionalism and client satisfaction.

 

Throughout law school, Mr. Kaufman balanced work and academia in pursuit of his dream of serving the people of Florida with their legal endeavors. He comes from a large family, enjoys mentoring students, and when Mr. Kaufman is not practicing law or spending time with his friends and family, you can find him playing electric guitar, lifting weights, or enjoying Florida’s beautiful coastline.
