Personal Professional Staff and service

Spoke with numerous staff members who were all prompt, personal in their approach on the individual case. Quickly accommodated my schedule. I felt comfortable in the environment and consultation with Ms. Greene. They are experts in Employee law.. this is their entire focus and it shows.

Excellent Guidance, Leadership, and Trust. Maura Greene's Office Protects You and Your Best Interests.

Maura Greene's office treats you as family. From day one, you feel protected and well-guided. Everyone at their office is there to support you, and there to guide you through what can be a difficult process. Josh Robbins specifically was phenomenal to work with. His communication, preparation, ...and determination was second to none. Josh was a steady presence throughout the course of our case, and he worked tirelessly toward our collective goal. Josh offered his expertise throughout the process and always advised the strengths and weaknesses of our case. We worked together to bolster our weaknesses, while making sure our strengths were the solid foundation of our argument. Throughout the process, you will inevitably have highs and lows as you wait for all of the motions to carry out. Josh's candor and demeanor never changed. He was clear and concise with his communication, and he was completely transparent with his dealings with the other party. Maura Greene and all of her associates represent you the way you wish to be represented. They fight hard for you, but they also treat you as a partner. They give you the best possible advice they can offer, but they let you know that you are making the ultimate decisions. They lend you their full support as they make sure all of the facts and opposing opinions are known. By partnering with Maura Greene's office, you are entrusting your case with an office that brings you in and makes you feel like you are not alone in your fight. They are by your side when you need them to be, and they are out front taking on the fight when you want them to be.

Experts in Employment Law

Maura Greene (and her counsel Lisa) are truly exceptional; always very attentive and professional. During my initial consultation, Maura listened attentively and asked questions to fully understand my situation from multiple angles. Maura provided me a variety of options to consider and was careful... not to sway me one way or another. It was only when I asked her professional opinion did she share the direction she thought was best. Throughout our engagement Maura's expertise in employment law really shown through. Maura was an excellent advisor and worked as strong advocate (on my behalf). I, without hesitation, would highly recommend Maura Greene and her team.

Superb !!!!

There are several adjectives I could say about my attorney; knowledgeable, responsive and compassionate are ones that resonate the most. She communicated each step of the way and never faltered from the task at hand. She was not discouraged by a ‘big name’ company nor intimidated. Maura is profess...ional, well-spoken and doesn’t ‘rattle’ easily. She handled my case with ease and I couldn’t have chosen any better. Best in class!!!

Successfully Resolved Issue with My Former Employer

I hired Maura Greene to help me with a separation agreement from my former employer. I was not familiar with these agreements and was not sure how the process would work. Maura was very professional and clear about explaining the process to me. Maura made several very helpful suggestions, which imm...ediately reassurred me. Maura has a comprehensive knowledge of employment law and is able to communicate clearly setting realistic expectations. From my inital conversation with Maura, through her exchanges with my former employer, Maura worked efficiently and was able to work out a successful agreement in a reasonable amount of time. I would highly recommend Maura for anyone with severance or other employment issues.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
