About Benjamin P.
Benjamin P. Urbelis built a practical path to the law from business studies to courtroom work. He earned a B.S. in Business Administration, Business Management & Entrepreneurship from the University of Connecticut in 2004. He completed his J.D. at Suffolk University Law School in 2008 and soon after entered practice in Massachusetts.
Early career moves are not listed here, but Urbelis later founded his own practice, Urbelis Law, LLC. He is admitted to the Massachusetts bar and to practice before the United States District Court. Over time he carved out a practice that often centers on criminal defense and DUI matters. Listings include recognition among the Best DUI Lawyers in Boston by Expertise.
Colleagues describe him as hands-on in courtroom settings. He appears regularly in local courts and in federal proceedings when cases call for it. His memberships reflect a steady presence in the legal community. He holds memberships in the Massachusetts Bar Association and the American Bar Association. He is also a member of both the Massachusetts Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers.
Urbelis combines professional work with community involvement. He serves on the Alumni Board of Advisors for Central Catholic High School and coaches the school's mock trial team. He began serving as a judge for the American Bar Association's moot court competition in 2014 and has continued in that role. Those roles keep him connected to younger people who are considering law and to classroom-style competition that sharpens advocacy skills.
At Urbelis Law, LLC he manages client intake, prepares for hearings, and handles trial work when cases advance. The firm handles a range of criminal matters but is noted publicly for DUI defense work. He staffs a small practice that aims to ensure each case receives direct attorney attention rather than being passed through layers of associates.
His background in business gives him a practical perspective when cases involve financial questions or require a cost-benefit reading of litigation choices. He uses that perspective in case planning and in advising clients on plea offers, trial strategy, and post-conviction options. He has maintained a steady presence in professional associations and educational programs while running his firm.
He continues to lead Urbelis Law, LLC and schedules courtroom appearances, client consultations, and educational involvement as part of his current practice focus.
