Attorney Benjamin J. Simon

Picture
Approach
 
Two principles guide how I practice law:  (1) the value of services should always exceed cost; and (2) a business lawyer should be proactive in supporting their client’s success. 
 
A good business lawyer will be proficient at contract reviews and due diligence exercises; a great business lawyer, however, helps their clients achieve success whether that means finding investors, growth opportunities, strategic partners, etc.  I measure success only after proving my value and gaining the client’s confidence – as one of my law professors said, "by becoming a trusted advisor." 
 
I have been retained by clients of all shapes and sizes, from major international corporations to individuals looking to start their first company.  The one thing that never changes is how I approach each relationship with my client.  I maintain a high level of professionalism, promptness in responding to client questions, finding the right solutions and getting the best possible outcome.

Background
 
Born and raised in Overland Park, Kansas, my first law-related job came during my junior and senior years of high school when I worked in the afternoons as a debt collector at a small law firm.  Since then, I’ve worked at the Washington, DC office of a major international firm of over 900 attorneys, and more recently at the largest law firm in the State of Kansas.  When not working, you can find me biking or hiking nearby parks with my white lab, Dempsey.  I am also a strong supporter of the arts, especially photography and contemporary urban art, both as a collector and dealer.  I also enjoy a wide variety of music and play the guitar, saxophone, and piano.
