RMV Hearing

From our first meeting, Jack was incredibly personable and helpful. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and provided reassurance when I was feeling uneasy about my case. He communicated with me through every step of the process. He didn't charge an arm and a leg and genuinely seemed to want... to help me. He won my case for me and he is the reason I have a drivers license today. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great attorney. Thanks Jack! It was such a pleasure working with you.

Jack GREENE BEST ATTORNEY IN NORFOLK COUNTY

John Greene (Jack) represented me at the board of appeal's for an OUI hearing on my license that was suspended until 2021. After much hard work and after 7 long years of walking everywhere, I'm am happy to say that my license has been reinstated.Jack is a great attorney for a reasonable price and ...better yet just an overall great guy!

Dismissed

I was in the unfortunate situation of letting my past history with addiction interfere with my road to recovery. I had 4 open cases, 2 of which involved possession, lingering over my relatively clean record. I hired Jack Greene as my attorney and not only did he take on all 4 cases, but he got all 4 ...dismissed. I highly recommend attorney Greene's counsel to anyone seeking legal help.

Won RMV Appeal and got license back

The RMV had denied me my hardship license after the Quincy court said I was eligible. My DUI lawyer referred me to Jack (John). He met with me right away, no waiting, to appeal the RMV decision. He said I have good case and got clients with much tougher cases their licence back. He came to the a...ppeal with me and presented my case, which was the first case of the day. He put together a good case which he read concerning my job, family and reasons why I need my hardship license. Two weeks later I got a letter in the mail stating, the RMV is to reinstate my license. He does a lot of business at the appeal building and he is well known there. I felt comfortable and confident having Jack represent me during the appeal. Also, Jack would always answer my phone calls, emails and texts right away which was important to me.

Great Lawyer better person

Jack Greene is a great lawyer, he has had 2 OUI cases thrown out for me and got my license restored 2 times. The best thing about Jack is that he listens to you and does not judge, He talks to you like a friend and not like you are just another client that he has on his list. He is nice and respond...s to you very quickly when you reach out to him. If he doesn't know something give him 24 hours and he will find out the information, In my recent case I was pulled over leaving a gentlemen's club as soon as I crossed into a different town, There was 8 of us at the club so we had 3 cars and as we left I was the middle car. As I cross in to the next town on route 138 I see a cop car cross the double lanes and pass 4 cars to get behind me. After he follows me for about a 30 seconds he lights me up. When I get the report and give it to Jack he see some holes in the report immediately, but one of the best things about Jack he doesn't feed you the BS telling you that can win this case. He tells you the truth and what he thinks he can do for you and then you go from there. Jack doesn't act like he is better than you or that he knows everything he listens to you and whatever ideas you may have. One of my witnesses had a thought and Jack ran with it, he pulled what is called a CAD report realized discrepancies in the officers story. It ends up the officer ran my plates along with everyone else while I was in the club. He saw that I had a previous OUI case and must have profiled me. He was in another town that he didn't work in and that is why I got pulled over when I hit that town and he knew to pass all those cars. Then Jack wanted the booking tape because told him I wasn't even drunk that night and for some reason they didn't record one that night. That didn't seem right so we Jack talked to the DA and the police supervisor for this town and after year the case was thrown out. Jack is great I would refer him to anyone because he is a great person and a hard worker.
