Benjamin Roberts

Mr. Roberts founded Benjamin Roberts Law, PLLC in 2018. He is a third-generation Texan and a native Houstonian. Mr. Roberts is a Cum Laude graduate of Texas Tech University, who earned his Juris Doctorate from the South Texas College of Law. Since founding his firm, Mr. Roberts has recovered millions of dollars on behalf of those injured as a result of another’s negligence. Mr. Roberts takes special interest in battling insurance companies for fair and just results on behalf of his clients.

In fact, following law school, it was his brief stint with an insurance defense firm that convinced him he should be representing injured victims, not the insurance company. Appalled by the standing belief that his job was to keep the insurance company happy, Mr. Roberts quickly tired of working to deny underprivileged individuals their right to recover claims he felt were valid and began working for those injured as a result of another’s carelessness.

Thereafter, Mr. Roberts began working for a prominent plaintiff personal injury firm, where he would eventually rise to the position of partner. Mr. Roberts’ other previous employment in the legal profession include a rewarding stint at one of Houston’s oldest plaintiff’s firms, as well as clerkship under a renown and well-respected defense attorney that gave him experience on the other side of the docket. Additionally, Mr. Roberts had the opportunity in law school to intern under a prestigious District Court Judge in Harris County.

Since 2015, Mr. Roberts has been named a Rising Star by Super Lawyers, and in 2019, he was inducted into the Million Dollar Advocates Forum for substantial settlement achieved in product liability case. In addition, Mr. Roberts was selected by The National Trial Lawyers Top 100, an invitation-only organization composed of the premier trial lawyers from each state or region who meet stringent qualifications as civil plaintiff trial lawyers.

Mr. Roberts holds a license to practice law before all Texas state courts and multiple Federal Courts. He is an active member of the Houston legal community, belonging to the Houston Trial Lawyers Association, Houston Bar Association, and American Association of Justice. He is a former member of a State Bar of Texas Grievance Committee, where he handled attorney investigations and disciplinary actions.

In addition to personal injury, Mr. Roberts has extensive experiencing in handling toxic tort cases, including chemical exposure and smoke inhalation claims in single plaintiff cases, as well as mass tort cases. Since 2010, Mr. Roberts has worked on three separate mass torts involving thousands of plant workers and nearby residents exposed to hazardous chemicals released from refineries and chemical plants along the Houston ship channel and Texas City area. More recently, Mr. Roberts served as liaison counsel for the neighborhood plaintiffs in the Chevron Refinery Fire. In this capacity, Mr. Roberts was responsible for representing the common interests of over 17,000 plaintiffs that suffered smoke inhalation and other injuries from a refinery fire in the Richmond, California area.

“We cannot expect big corporations and insurance companies to have respect for law and order, we must teach them respect by holding them accountable, especially when their negligence results in the injury of another. That’s what I try to do every day, and that’s why I love this job.” – Ben Roberts
