About Benjamin Francis Barrett
Benjamin Francis Barrett Jr. is a seasoned employment law attorney based in Atlanta, Georgia — He earned his Juris Doctor from Case Western Reserve University School of Law in 1987. Shortly after graduating, Barrett was admitted to the Ohio Bar in the same year. His legal career took a significant turn when he moved to Georgia, where he was admitted to the Georgia Bar in 1999. This transition marked the beginning of a robust career that would see him become a notable figure in employment law. In 2019, Barrett founded Ben Barrett Law, a firm dedicated solely to employment law cases — His previous experience includes co-founding Barrett & Farahany, LLP, in January 2001.
Under his leadership, Barrett & Farahany expanded from a modest two-attorney practice to a thriving team of twenty, which included ten attorneys. The firm's growth and success were recognized in October 2016 when it was named one of Atlanta's top litigation departments by the Fulton County Daily Report. This accolade underscored Barrett's ability to lead and grow a successful legal practice. In April 2015, Barrett took a brief hiatus from practicing law to focus on mentoring the next generation of attorneys. He served as an adjunct professor at Emory University School of Law, where he taught advanced trial advocacy, particularly in gender discrimination cases. His commitment to education extended beyond the classroom; Barrett also volunteered as a coach for high school mock trial teams.
Many of his former students have gone on to have successful careers in law, reflecting his impact on the legal community. After a few years away from the courtroom, Barrett returned from retirement to establish Ben Barrett Law. His firm specializes in various employment law areas, including employee benefits, employment contracts, employment discrimination, ERISA, overtime and unpaid wages, sexual harassment, whistleblower cases, and wrongful termination. This focus allows him to represent employee rights and fair treatment in the workplace, a passion that has defined his career. Barrett is a member of both the State Bar of Georgia and the American Association for Justice. His office is located at 1050 Crown Pointe Parkway, Suite 500, Atlanta, GA 30338.
