Ben Wizner is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on June 24, 1971 in New Haven, Connecticut, United States.
Ben Wizner (born 1971) is an American lawyer, writer, and civil liberties advocate with the American Civil Liberties Union. Since July 2013, he has been the lead attorney of NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden.
Wizner began working for the American Civil Liberties Union in Los Angeles in August 2001, initially focusing on prison reform. Following the September 11 attacks, Wizner’s focus shifted to civil liberties issues relating to U.S. national security. Around 2004, he moved to the ACLU’s headquarters in New York City. There, he argued legal cases relating to airport security, government watchlists, surveillance practices, targeted killing, extraordinary rendition, and torture. He made several trips to the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. Many of the cases Wizner took were dismissed; he later commented that “on the worst days, I believed that what we were doing … wasn’t litigation in the traditional sense. It wasn’t trying to get a court to do something, it was creating a record so that … people would be able to look back and decide whether it had been the right decision or a disastrous decision.”
