Benjamin accepts briefs in all areas of law in the State and Federal Courts, with a focus on commercial and insurance matters. He has advised and acted on behalf of public and private corporations, State and Federal Government agencies, group members, and individuals. 

He has experience in class actions, funded litigation, general corporate and commercial disputes, building and construction, bankruptcy and insolvency, disciplinary, public law and judicial review, intellectual property, planning and environment, and a particular interest and expertise in insurance claims and litigation.

Benjamin has acted in high profile disputes on behalf of group members, public and private companies, sporting regulators, and, following the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, in some of Queensland’s most sensitive and reputationally significant insurance matters on behalf of religious, private educational, and Commonwealth and State Government institutions and their insurers.

Before going to the bar, Benjamin practised as an Associate at MinterEllison in the general insurance team, and as a solicitor in funded litigation and class actions.

He also worked as a Judge’s Associate to the former Chief Magistrate of Queensland, to a judge of the District and Planning and Environment Courts of Queensland, and to a justice of the Federal Court of Australia.

Benjamin is bilingual and speaks fluent French, having obtained his formal C2 qualifications in France in 2015, and accepts briefs where that level of fluency is required.
