Hey, I'm Benjy Smith

Founder of Smith Law. Employment attorney for workers. Builder, Creator and Advocate Period

I represent employees in high-stakes workplace disputes - wrongful termination, discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. With 17+ years of litigation experience, I combine strategic thinking with a tech-forward, modern approach to employment law.

I'm selective about cases because I work on contingency - I only take cases I believe we can win. That means no upfront costs for you, and our success is directly tied to yours.

Beyond my legal work, I build and support projects focused on advocacy, storytelling, and community.

My mission is to stand with every employee who’s been wronged, to make employers accountable, and to bring not just legal wins but dignity and respect back into people’s lives.
