Ben Koshy

Attorney Ben Koshy joined The Greening Law Group in 2023, operating out of our firm’s Waco office. He is licensed to practice in the State of Texas, as well as in federal courts in the Western District of Texas.

Mr. Koshy graduated from Baylor Law in Waco, Texas, and has a love for the Waco area community. After working as a prosecutor in the Angelina County District Attorney’s Office, Mr. Koshy chose to shift into defense. He then served as a Public Defender in Dallas County, representing primarily indigent clients. With this distinctive background, Mr. Koshy has the advantage of having been on multiple sides of the courtroom. He has a unique perspective into the way prosecutors approach criminal cases and uses that knowledge to strategically and carefully craft each client’s defense strategy.

Though Mr. Koshy is skilled in all aspects of criminal defense, he has a passion specifically for helping juveniles accused of crimes. With the knowledge that criminal cases can often have a devastating impact on one’s life, Mr. Koshy knows that it’s important to show compassion and understanding to our clients. In juvenile cases specifically, it’s extremely important to have an attorney focused on reducing the long-lasting negative impacts a criminal case can have on the juvenile’s life.

Driven by compassion, integrity, and grit, Mr. Koshy seeks to connect with clients on a personal level. He sees the importance of taking the time to listen and understand his clients and their concerns, demonstrating that he has his clients’ best interests in mind through strong work ethic and honor, and consistently working hard to achieve the best possible outcome for each client.

When meeting a new client, Mr Koshy’s first goal is to connect with them personally, learning who they are as an individual, what their goals are in life, and what their hopes are for their case. He analyzes each new case by looking at the different elements in play, hearing the client’s side of what happened, carefully analyzing evidence, and putting the pieces together to identify the best course of action.

Mr. Koshy has engaged in a number of further trainings and specializations in addition to his law school foundation, such as the St. Andrews School of the Advocate, where he gained direct experience with being a trial advocate, crafting well-organized opening and closing statements, conducting direct or cross-examinations, and participating in bench trials. In the Tim Evans Trial College and the Center for American and International Law (CAIL) Trial Skills College, he strengthened these skills even further and studied voir dire, the process of selecting a jury.

Actively involved in several professional organizations, including the Waco-McLennan Bar Association, the McLennan County Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, the National College of DUI Defense, and the Texas Criminal Defense Lawyers Association, Mr. Koshy remains well-connected and informed about the dynamic legal landscape. His participation in these organizations contributes to his professional network, helping him stay up to date and connected with the ever-changing legal landscape, reinforcing his dedication to providing top-tier legal defense.

With a client-centered approach, Mr. Koshy aims to understand the unique aspects of each case, making personal connections that go beyond legal representation. His unwavering commitment to justice, combined with his diverse experiences and continuous professional development, positions him as a trusted advocate for those navigating the complexities of the legal system.

During my ongoing court case, I faced the unexpected transition of having to find a new legal representation. My previous lawyer had to step away due to a significant shift in his professional life, transitioning from a legal role to a different career path. He had emphasized to me that his departure had nothing to do with the case or any dissatisfaction with me as a client, but rather I would be better in someone else’s hands given his shift in his professional life. He was kind enough to provide me with a list of recommended attorneys to consider, underscoring his confidence in their abilities to take over where he left off.During this transition, I was fortunate to reconnect with Greg S., an investigator with whom I had a positive working relationship in the past. Greg has always been a reliable and kind presence, responding promptly to my questions and working diligently to investigate various aspects of my case. Knowing that he was now associated with the Greening Law Group, where Craig and Sarah are practicing, gave me a sense of continuity and trust. Additionally, Greg had highly praised Craig and Sarah adding to my eagerness to have them on my case.Since engaging with Craig and Sarah, and reconnecting with Greg, I have been impressed with their concerted efforts to fully understand the nuances of my case. They have been proactive in keeping me informed and providing guidance on the necessary steps ahead. Their approach has been both professional and personable, making the complex legal process more manageable.I cannot express enough my gratitude for the tireless efforts of Craig, Sarah, and Greg. I wholeheartedly recommend the Greening Law Group for their professionalism, empathy, and dedication to their clients' well-being. I look forward to continuing with them and trust their efforts will not be in vain. I would not hesitate to recommend them to others seeking competent and compassionate legal representation. In recognition of their exceptional service, I am honored to give them a well-deserved 5-star rating. Thank you, Craig, Sarah, and Greg, for being my steadfast allies during this crazy time.

I would recommend him to anyone time and time again!

Made appointment with Craig through Katia. She did a great job of answering all my questions and providing information. Went in for scheduled visit with Craig and was met by Katia at front desk. She was great at making me feel comfortable. We discussed case and I was impressed with her knowledge and responses. Craig then came in and we discussed further. I feel very confident in his abilities to litigate.
