Competent, Professional, Thorough!

I hired Attorney Greenberg after my initial divorce attorney was incompetent. It was a very stressful time for me. She and Attorney Krieger are very professional, competent, and thorough. I was very impressed with the timeliness of their responses to me, and the manner in which they kept me inform...ed at every single step of my case. Their billing process is detailed and transparent; the practice is trustworthy and ethical. Attorney Greenberg would be your champion and fighter and always protect you as her client. She is very realistic and looks at the big picture and is extremely knowledgeable in the divorce/custody areas of law. Words cannot adequately express my satisfaction with my representation from start to finish.

Compassionate and effective

Amy and her staff helped me through a long custody battle for my children. She has a very practical approach and a great deal of experience inside a court room. At the end of my trial, the judge thanked her for her professionalism throughout the time we were at the Regional Family Trial Docket.

A Real Thinker

My husband and I retained Attorney Amy Greenberg a few months ago and she has been absolutely amazing. We are in a surreal custody battle with my husbands ex-wife. We had prior representation during our case that failed to represent the law, the truth and most importantly forgot that this is about ...children. Not Attorney Amy Greenberg, Amy has done research, thought about and executed strategy and has not filled us with false hope, something we had experienced with prior counsel. Attorney Greenberg is smart and witty and has gone to bat for us. She is intelligent and knows what she is talking about when it comes to family law.

Recommend

I highly recommend Atty Greenberg. She is my fourth family law attorney and is by far the best attorney I have come in contact with. She understands her field, she is frank and objective, compassionate and a great advocate for my rights. Her knowledge and confidence with her profession allows her ...to be unassuming and direct- she gets her points across in a non confrontational yet persistent manner. I have enjoyed working with her and most importantly, I know she has my back when the chips are down.

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.
