Benjamin J. Rowland
Partner, Cheyenne Office
Benjamin J. Rowland joined Davis & Cannon, LLP in 2018. During his time, he has represented individuals, local governments, and increasingly, businesses in a variety of matters. Ben represents business owners in Wyoming in disputes with their partners, co-owners, and fellow shareholders, focusing on the complex conflicts that arise when business relationships break down.
Ben’s clients are typically founders, operators, and long-term owners of established businesses who face squeeze-outs, exclusion from management, asset diversion, or other wrongful conduct by co-owners. He works with companies across industries, with particular experience serving businesses with meaningful revenue and sophisticated operations.
In these disputes, Ben handles claims for minority shareholder oppression, LLC member disputes, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, conversion, partnership dissolution, and business divorces. He also represents business owners in contract disputes, general commercial litigation across industries, and business transactions.
Ben brings to this work experience gained through prior service as an assistant city attorney for Cheyenne, where he handled complex municipal matters, as a law clerk for the Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the District of Wyoming, as a law clerk for the U.S. Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, and through work at an international law firm in Washington, DC.
Ben earned his J.D. from the Catholic University of America Columbus School of Law and graduated from Duke University with a major in public policy studies.
Outside of his practice, Ben can be found wrangling his two boys, spending time with family, riding his bike, and working to improve the Cheyenne community.
