Client

Mr. Barison handled me and my case skillfully, through his knowledge of the law, the court system and human nature. I always felt as if I had an experienced ally, who listened to my concerns, advices me knowledgeably and honestly. Greg kept me calm in a very stressful situation by stating clearly how... he would prove our case and by responding promptly to my calls and emails. He kept me informed but didn’t over burden me and made me laugh when I needed one. My case was dismissed and I am very relieved and happy. I would use him again and recommend Greg to any family member or friend that needs legal help.

Superior skills and dedication

I hired Greg in a dispute with a real estate broker who misrepresented and withheld information about the home I was buying. Greg was very proactive and easy to communicate with. He is much easier to reach than most attorneys I have dealt with. He also is patient and will take the time to explain wha...t is going on. From time to time I have asked his advice about other problems he always comes up with a practical solution. His Legal Services and communication skills are excellent. Also, I found his fees to be reasonable and in keeping with the work done.

Property Dispute

I hired Gregory to help me with a property ownership dispute. Gregory was more that through explaining the law and legal process and how it pertained to my case. Gregory always kept me informed of how the case was going and what the next steps in the case would be. He also recommended how to protec...t myself from future litigation. I highly recommend Gregory Barison for your litigation needs and would hire him again to represent me if the need arises.

Top notch lawyer - will fight for you and WIN!

I've hired Attorney Gregory Barison twice. First time, I was rear-ended as I stopped on Yellow at an intersection. Attorney Barison negotiated with the insurance company of the offending party and I received monetary compensation in a timely manner. The second case, I was summoned to court for mis...sing one auto-insurance payment and owning a car for a week or two without active auto-insurance - the penalty for this is as far as I recall up to $2k in fees and/or up to 6 months in jail. I again hired Attorney Barison, and he convinced the Assistant DA to drop the charges in exchange for me paying a minor fine and court expenses. I am very satisfied with the outcome in both cases. Att. Barison is the best trial lawyer that I know and I have recommended him to my friends and relatives knowing that he will assertively fight for the client's interests. He is a very knowledgeable, persuasive, and effective lawyer who is always there when you need him!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Greg was my classmate at law school and we reconnected a number of years later when we tried a case against each other. Since then I have referred a number of clients to Greg and, without exception, they have been pleased with his representation. Recently I gave one of my clients who needed a divorce attorney Greg’s name along with the names of several other attorneys. The client elected to retain one of the other attorneys and several months later asked me for some additional names. I encouraged him to reconsider Greg and he subsequently told me that that was excellent advice. I am flattered that Greg has referred clients to me and if I ever get into a pickle myself, his name is at the top of my Rolodex."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I retained Matt and Greg Barison to represent close family members in the defense of a civil litigation matter. As a litigator myself, I was impressed with their aggressive but yet cost-conscious representation that resulted in a favorable settlement. I have also known them both for over ten years and endorse them as highly ethical practitioners."
