Great attorney

I discovered Greg's law practice when I was under tremendous stress for an ERISA issue. Greg patiently listened to me and offered insightful suggestions. I'm impressed by Greg's deep knowledge in ERISA matters, and even more so by his compassion and integrity. Attorneys like Greg make the world a b...etter place. I am immensely grateful!

Gregory George Paul - Attorney

I found Greg to be very personable and knowledgeable of the plethora of laws regarding disability and Social Security. I met with him in his office and found him very professional and focused, yet down to earth. The kindness you see in his picture appearance carries over to his real personality. H...is staff maintains a high level of professionalism as well. If I ever had need of a disability attorney, I would not hesitate to contact Greg. He also went beyond the call of duty to help me on one occaision, for which I am deeply grateful. If he ever needed a phone reference I would be more than happy to provide it. If you find yourself in a maze of disability issues, call Greg and let him get you on the right path to success.

Relationship: Friend

"I was at Gerry Spence's trial lawyer's college with Greg. I saw him in action and got to know him. He is an impressive advocate with keen persuasive skills. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to a client or have him represent me."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"The memories of the time that I have spent with Greg will stay with me as long as I practice law. He has faced down challenges that many stout advocates would shy away from and is unafraid of Judges and Juries that look upon him as a foreigner in their hometown. His national practice is an inspiration to lawyers such as myself who tend to stick close to home and he is always available as a mentor to less experienced attorneys, returning messages and spending valuable time consulting with them to make sure that all of their questions are answered. On a personal note I also consider him a good friend who always makes sure to stay in close touch and follows my personal and professional development just like a brother."

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.
