Excellent divorce lawyer!
Mr. Michael Green and Sylwia provided an excellent and efficient service during my divorce case that went for almost an year. I highly recommend them for divorce cases.
Mike is a very experienced lawyer in family law, and he brought good wisdom to use to put pressure on the other party. My ex didn’t want to settle the case in US and wanted the case to be tried in India, so she tried all the dirty tricks to delay the case. For me the important aspect of this case was to get divorce on the grounds that are valid in India as well. During trial, the judge indicated that she is not in favor of extreme cruelty charge. Mike immediately suggested to modify the claim to include desertion and drop the extreme cruelty count. He fought hard to prove that my ex, under the influence of her family, deserted the marriage. He articulated the argument very well, cross examined my ex and convinced the judge on the count. His professional prowess also came to forefront when he understood the weakness of the response filed by my ex that didn’t include equitable distribution. He intelligently dropped my claim to equitable distribution during trial, so that my ex is not entitled to my 401K, assets etc. This had big impact on the opposing party during the trial.
During deposition, he went about getting all details from my ex very diligent manner and left no room for her to be vague. His attention to detail ensured that we were able to make the most of the deposition and it proved to be significant during the trial.
One of the great things about Mike is that after deposition of my ex and trial, he brainstormed with me what he could have done differently to make more impact in the case. His desire to learn from each case showed how much he loves his profession and expertise in family law.
Additionally, Sylwia has been very diligent in preparing the case. I was simply amazed how she creates fully labeled documentation for Mike whenever he showed up during the divorce case. She follows up with court and other parties very frequently to stay on top of the case.

Smooth process with Michael Green & Associates
Mr. Michael Green and his associates provided very efficient service to me throughout my divorce case which lasted almost an year. His charges were very reasonable and what he stipulated at the start was the final figure, so we knew what it would be, there were no surprises. Throughout the period I had many questions and his office was always ready to answer my phone calls and my emails. I am very grateful to Michael and his team the case is over and I get to enjoy my children.

He kept my daughter in my life.
I originally hired Michael and team back in 2014 to help with a divorce and hostile child custody case where my ex was trying to relocate to a distant and remote location. Whereas no one really enjoys the process of getting a divorce, particularly when there is such a strong custody component and emotions to it, I need to say my experience with Michael was excellent. He knew the right people to bring onto the case, and the right approached to argue and present, he kept me focus on what mattered during a very emotional time. It ultimately result in a 50% verdict (which was my goal) for custody. My daughter remains in my life. I am extremely grateful for this blessing and, with the complexities of the case, do not believe vary many other people could have pulled it off (I interviewed at least 5 other attorneys before I engaged him.) Recently, I am up for child support renegotiation and again I have engaged Michael and am having the same experience. It is a relief to have someone who I trust that can take the lead on these matters. His approach is always professional and focused. I listen to his advice 100%. I would strongly recommend him.

Definately Worth It
Divorce is never easy, this is my second one and this time around it was much better. Michael Green moved fast and delivered on everything he said he would. I got royally screwed during the first one but this time Karma was on my side and he made sure of it. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. Hopefully I do not have to use him again!!!

Result guaranteed experience
I had a case of divorce, in which I and my wife made agreement on distributing properties and such. Attorney Green gave me clear pictures on what I'm supposed to do and what i may encounter, and everything was taken care of by him without my having to keep an eye on them all the time. The whole process went smoothly and was done with expected time range. My emails and enquirers were responded quickly. Overall I'm quite satisfied. The price is reasonable considering the quality of service.

Excellent divorce attorney
From the moment I walked in the door I was treated with great respect and compassion. Michael was especially attentive to my needs and made what could have been a trying and difficult experience as easy it could possibly be. He made himself available to me both nights and weekends and assured me that everything would work out. His support staff was top notch. He worked extremely hard on my case and I am very happy with the result. I would highly recommend him to all my family and friends as he's a very competent lawyer who cares about his clients.

Extremely knowledgable and helpful
Michael was my attorney in a divorce matter, and I always felt he had my best interests in mind. He fought for me on several motions, and argued very effectively. He also helped me understand exactly where my case was, and where it was going, which helped keep me informed along the way. I have recommended Michael to others, and they are happy with their results as well.

Great divorce lawyer
Michael Green was very professional and personable. I used him for my lawyer through a mediation/divorce process. Even a year after the divorce I had questions for him which required him to look back in my file and retrieve certain paperwork. There was a time constraint on the paperwork and he had everything done for me immediately.

Green & Associates got me the results I wanted on time and at a reasonable cost!
After spending an embarrassing amount of money with a big law firm and getting a marginal result, a work colleague recommended Green and Associates and I fee so fortunate. I wasn't nickle and dimed. Michael re-negotiated previous terms and spared me a lot of headaches. He is available round the clock, which was great because I work. The staff is fantastic too! They explain things in simple language so that you understand what is happening -- no surprises! I hope I never have to need a lawyer again, but if I do, one thing is certain, Green & Associates can count me as a client!
