He received his undergraduate degree from Dartmouth College, his law degree from George Washington University and a master’s degree from the University of New Hampshire. While he has worked most frequently in the Greater Boston area and New Hampshire, he has had the good fortune to work as a consultant throughout New England and into New York, California, Texas and elsewhere.

Ben is comfortable and experienced in working on the seller or buyer side of a transaction. In addition to advocating for his client, Ben is acutely aware of the importance of building a good professional team for his client and managing the transaction to completion. Ben attempts to treat all parties with respect and professionalism. He is very proud that some of the parties who were on the other side of the table when they purchased or bought into businesses 15 or 20 years ago now come to him to represent them as they plan their own exit strategies.

In addition to working with traditional practice sales and buy-in/buy-out transactions, Ben has significant experience working with practice sales to dental service organizations (DSOs), and working with acquisitions of or by multi-practice owners.

Ben speaks and writes frequently about professional practice transition topics. Please feel free to contact him to speak to your organization.
