Wonderful Attorney

My first encounter with Rick Greenberg was in a matter where I was represented by another attorney against Rick's client. I was so impressed with him that after the matter, I switched to Rick and now he is my attorney for both personal matters and my professional prosthodontic practice. I am very pl...eased with everything he has done for me. I feel Rick always puts my interests first.
