I am committed to protecting your rights. I'm an experienced lawyer, former prosecutor, and former peace officer. I've handled cases from the lowest level trial courts to the United States Supreme Court. Even though my cases can be complex, however, my clients appreciate the way I can explain them in an easy to understand manner.. I’ve handled hundreds of criminal cases at the trial level as well as over 300 criminal cases on appeal or in other post-conviction areas (habeas writs, DNA actions, etc.). I’ve argued cases before the Texas Supreme Court’s criminal branch as both a prosecutor and a defense lawyer. I’ve also handled cases in federal appellate courts and, twice, in the United States Supreme Court. These are all criminal cases.. I helped lead a legislative review committee for criminal law bills and explained those bills to Texas legislators--many of whom had little criminal experience. I was also selected by the Texas Bar president to sit on the State Bar committee for the Rules of Evidence. I served in that capacity for years, helping to review and improve our Texas Rules of Evidence.. In 2018 I expanded my practice into the area of personal injury. Too many of my clients had been injured by reckless drivers or unsafe job conditions. Given that most civil attorneys have very little courtroom experience, I found that the transition helped my clients enormously.. Now I bring this knowledge and experience to people like you, relentlessly representing clients in all courts and on all types of criminal charges and personal injury cases.

Ben Pearce, has been a pivotal member of Greco Neyland PC from its foundation. Jumping into practice with the seasoned defense attorneys and former prosecutors at Greco Neyland, Ben quickly set out to prove his merit.. Ben is a lifelong Houston resident, and is the first member of his family to become an attorney. He worked his way through college where he would graduate from the University of Texas, Austin with a bachelor’s in Economics and a double minor in Psychology and Business Administration.. After finishing undergrad, Ben attended law school at Thurgood Marshall School of Law back in his hometown of Houston. Capitalizing on a merit-based scholarship earned from his undergraduate accomplishments, Ben was set out to prepare himself to hit the ground running once his inevitable graduation and licensure came to pass. After his first year of law school, Ben started an internship with Attorney Dustan Neyland. This opportunity allowed him to assist on serious cases, a far cry from the hypotheticals presented in the classroom. Such cases included the successful suppression of over 100 pounds of marijuana, not guilty trial verdicts, and practical appellate research.. As with any attorney at Greco Neyland, an understanding of what it takes to prosecute a case is paramount. Ben earned a coveted spot in the Thurgood Marshall School of Law’s academic externship program with the Harris County District Attorney’s Office. Throughout his final year of law school, he gained practical knowledge of the inner workings of criminal prosecutions.. Ben strives for his goal to provide equality under the law at every opportunity for his clients. From the moment he set out for law school his mind was made up, he wanted to work on matters of substance and have a true impact on the lives of his clients. Of course, nothing matters more than arguing cases that deal with a person’s freedom. He knew he had to become a criminal-defense lawyer.. Ben has found particular aptitude in utilizing the grand jury process to find success for our clients. A process avoided by many attorneys as they decry it a waste of effort which actually requires a defense attorney to work and not just “show up” to court. By breaking down complex and voluminous cases into straightforward presentments, Ben has been able to yield many positive results on cases where prosecutors relied upon quantity over quality of evidence.

I've been practicing criminal defense for 23 years and I'm board certified by the Texas Board of legal specialization in Criminal Defense. I love Criminal Defense and feel lucky to have picked it as the area of law to practice.

I am a former Assistant District Attorney that has devoted 100% of his law practice to defending those accused of crimes. I take great pride in doing the best job possible for each and every client. Call me.

I was born and raised in the Houston area, and left to attend Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas. After graduating with a degree in Political Science, I returned to Houston to attend law school at South Texas College of Law.. During law school, I held an internship with the Harris County Public Defender's Office, and found that my heart and passion lay in defending people and their freedom. Just after becoming licensed as an attorney, I started my own law practice focusing on criminal defense.. Shortly thereafter, I was one of ten young attorneys selected by the Harris County Public Defender's Office to participate in the Future Appointed Counsel Training Program, a pilot program designed to train young defense attorneys. Through that program I was afforded the opportunity to train with Gideon's Promise and their faculty consisting of some of the best public defenders and defense attorneys from across the nation.

I am a native Houstonian but earned my undergraduate degree from Columbia University in New York City.  Texas and New York certainly have their differences. The experiences of living in both places has been a tremendous asset to me.  Likewise, I have been both a prosecutor and an attorney in private practice. Seeing litigation from different sides has helped me offer informed legal aid and direction for my clients.. During the 10 years that I served as a prosecutor and felony district court chief in the major offenders section, I handled a variety of criminal and civil cases, specializing in white-collar crime, civil litigation, DWI, and many others. As a prosecutor, I began to notice that many defendants weren’t receiving proper representation from their attorneys—and most suffered convictions, prolonged sentencing, and higher fines because of it.. It wasn’t long before I decided to launch my own law firm to offer defendants zealous but honest representation. I became board certified in criminal defense law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and established my own law firm in order to provide my clients with legal aid to guide them through the rigors of defense law litigation. To that end, I’ve successfully represented countless clients facing charges ranging from DWI’s to murder—all backed by my experience arguing on both sides of the courtroom.
