Mentor for life.
Wayne is a patient and detailed attorney who knows exactly what he's doing in the world of Chapter 7 and 11. Dealing with these initially frightening options can be emotional and frustrating.

Patience and Savvy Win
When I was referred to Mr. Greenwald I was deep in debt and going through a hostile separation. I was upset, fearful, and didn't really know the right thing to do. Mr. Greenwald had so much patience.

""If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, just wait until you hire an amateur!" (Red Adair). I don't think this could be more true than an area like bankruptcy. Bankruptcy is such a highly-specialized and nuanced area of both substantive and procedural law that any client is shooting themselves in the foot by being intimidated how much an excellent bankruptcy attorney costs. Considering Mr. Greenwald's thoughtful and intelligent comments on Avvo, his education, his experience, and his reputation in the industry, I have confidently placed him on the very top of my own list of recommended attorneys for clients facing bankruptcy issues. I would confidently recommend him to other attorneys looking to refer work out to a competent bankruptcy attorney."
"Mr. Greenwald is extremely knowledgeable and a leader in his field. My firm retained him to assist us in pursuing a complex insurance claim in the Bankruptcy Court."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Wayne for the past 33 years as a trusted, dedicated lawyer. Just recently I refreed a complicated bankruptcy matter to his firm His knowledge, expertise and total preparedness resulted in an extremely favorable resolution for my client. Thank you, Wayne!"
