Awesome and experienced attorney!

Howard is such an excellent and very experienced attorney who is great at what he does - defend your rights. One of the best that I've ever had to retain. When I first reached out to Howard to discussed the matter, it was quickly clear to me that he is very knowledgeable about the laws and discussed... a strategic plan of action for me. I could sense he was a great fit for me and would do his best to help resolve the matter. He was always available to answer my calls, both day and night and even weekends. He was always helpful with answer any questions I had, with clearing any confusion and really helped to just calm my fears. He did not bill and nickel &dime me for every minute of his time spent like most other attorney's/firms do. He allowed me to shadow him in a criminal case he was Counsel to and I learned so much from him. In Howard fashion, he knew how to navigate the court/justice system to get the matter resolved as soon as he possibly could. I highly recommend Howard to anyone looking for an experienced and straight forward attorney who will get you results!

Most Compassionate Lawyer

I would like to say that Mr. Howard Greenberg is one of the most compassionate and understanding attorney I have ever dealt with. He is very thorough straight to the point, and worth every cent. My son got arrested, and Mr. Greenberg came through so fast and explained the process step-by-step. I woul...d recommend him to anyone that needs a great criminal attorney!

Great attorney

Mr Greenberg while representing my son on serious charges and cross examining witnesses was outstanding! Everyday leaving that courtroom we felt very satisfied with his ability to pick out the inconsistencies in testimonies given as well as his ability to challenge prosecutors. Hiring him was the be...st decision we made.

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"When they say you gotta hire a "Jewish" lawyer, they may as well say, "You gotta hire Howard Greenberg." I can report, first-hand, that Mr. Greenberg's done more with less than any other lawyer I've witnessed. It would not be an exaggeration to say that I've seen Mr. Greenberg turn water into wine - warrants into water - major crimes into acquittals -- or as one Judge put it, "Mr. Greenberg turns molehills into mountains." In sum: Greenberg's the quintessential Brooklyn defense attorney: born and raised in a Manhattan slum, he has a record of acquittals that stands the length and breadth of the entire country. Anyone who defends civil liberties or/and individual rights would do well to emulate the fearless advocacy of this lawyer who is without peer."
