Ms. Benyamin earned her Juris Doctor from Columbia Law School, where she was selected for Columbia’s most competitive program, the Columbia Law School Mediation Clinic.

Before law school, Ms. Benyamin worked closely with a leading neurosurgeon, an experience that provided early insight into the medical aspects of injury and recovery. She also served as an Executive Search and Assessment professional in the Legal, Regulatory, and Compliance Practice at one of the world’s top five executive search firms, where she worked on placements for general counsel and chief legal officers at Fortune 500 companies.
