Take a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know prominent (and soon to be legendary) attorney Ben Meiselas. Ben has worked with and for folks like: Sean P. Diddy Combs, Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton, Representative Steve Israel, and others; before getting snatched up by Mark Geragos for his firm: Geragos & Geragos. In this episode Ben tells us about growing up in Long Island, and why he decided to become a lawyer. We also talk about some of his more interesting recent cases; such as Colin Kaepernick vs The NFL, The Fyre Festival, Shaver vs The City of Mesa, Az, and (in some capacity) The Jussie Smollett case. Plus We learn all about Ice Cube’s BIG 3 basketball league, and how Ben is involved with it.
