Meet Our Team
Benjamin Zimmerman
Ben Zimmerman was born in Uvalde, Texas, and raised in Cuero, Texas. After graduating from Cuero High School in 2004, Ben attended Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. He then attended St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio, Texas, where he earned his Doctor of Jurisprudence in 2011.
During his time at St. Mary’s University School of Law, Ben enjoyed a great deal of success in the areas of oral and written advocacy. As a first-year law student, Ben was a member of the championship team in the 2008-2009 First-Year Moot Court Competition (an annual competition requiring the participation of all first-year law students) and he was named as the Outstanding Speaker of the competition. Thereafter, Ben was selected to compete nationally as a member of the St. Mary’s Mock Trial Team and he was elected by his peers to serve as the Chairman of the Board of Advocates. Shortly before his graduation from St. Mary’s University School of Law, Ben was named to the Order of the Barristers (a nationally recognized honor bestowed upon the top ten law students in the areas of oral and written advocacy).
Ben is proudly married to Samantha Zimmerman (whom is also a graduate of both Cuero High School and Texas A&M University) and together they have three daughters.
Jack Stewart

He attended undergraduate studies at Rhodes College, in Memphis Tennessee, where he obtained dual degrees, a Bachelor of Arts in Classical Languages and a Bachelor of Science in Chemistry. He continued his education at the University of Washington, where as a member of the Anderson Laboratory, he developed novel methods for understanding and predicting peptide and protein folding utilizing Nuclear Magnetic Resonance techniques. For his work in this field, he was awarded Master of Science and a Doctor of Philosophy degrees in Organic Chemistry.
In 2011, with an eye towards a legal career, Jack sat for and passed the registration examination for the United States Patent and Trademark Office and became a Patent Agent. He subsequently attended Seattle University School of Law and in 2015 was awarded a Doctor of Jurisprudence, with Honors, and focus certification in both Business and Intellectual Property law.
In 2018 Jack and his wife Sarah moved to Kerrville, Texas to be near family and undertake a historical restoration. While often working in private practice to serve the interests of start-ups, growing businesses, and inventors, he also partnered with the Texas Workforce Commission to assist with appeals related to the massive influx of unemployment claims that grew out of the 2020 shutdowns. Jack is currently licensed to practice law in Washington, Texas, and before the USPTO as a registered patent attorney.
