About Ben
Ben Stevens earned a B.S. in Financial Management from Clemson University in 1992 and went on to receive his J.D. from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1995. His undergraduate work in finance informs a careful approach to the financial aspects of family law cases. The combination of business training and legal education shaped his early interest in contested matters where financial questions are central.
Stevens began his professional life in the mid-1990s, entering the legal community as members of several national organizations. He joined the American Association for Justice and the American Bar Association in 1995. Over time he added memberships that reflect his practice area: the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers in 2013 and the International Academy of Family Lawyers in 2015. Those associations mark a steady involvement in forums where family law practice and trial technique are discussed and refined.
He is admitted to practice in South Carolina and in the Federal Circuit. The record lists his Board Certification as a Family Trial Advocate from the National Board of Trial Advocacy. That credential signals courtroom experience in family law trials and reflects a sustained engagement with trial skills. His participation in both domestic and international family law organizations suggests a practice that handles complex matrimonial and family disputes, often those that include significant financial issues.
Colleagues describe Stevens as a lawyer who spends a lot of time preparing cases for trial and for settlement negotiations. He has continued to maintain ties to state and national trial and justice associations since the beginning of his career. Memberships in the South Carolina Association for Justice and other groups indicate ongoing involvement with developments in trial practice and civil justice policy.
Over three decades in practice, Stevens has balanced trial work and client counseling. He has pursued board certification in family trial advocacy and has remained active in academies that gather experienced matrimonial and family law practitioners. That mix of credentials and association memberships points to a practitioner who handles high-stakes family law matters that require attention to both legal strategy and financial detail.
He currently practices in South Carolina and before the Federal Circuit, concentrating his work in family law and family-related trial advocacy. His current practice focuses on family law and trial advocacy.
