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 em...otions 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.

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 proce...ss 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.

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 rec...ommended Michael to others, and they are happy with their results as well.

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 cl...ock, 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!
