Posted by Mark | February 17, 2013 | Trucking Accident

Mr Greenburg saved my career.

After a devastating 18 wheel wreck in Philadelphia in which my vehicle was the only involved. I received three career ending citations from the state police. Any one of these citations if found guilty could end my driving career. I live in California and could only hire an attorney by phone to repr...esent me through the trial process. Living 2800 miles away from the court room where my case would be heard only added to the feelings of hopelessness. That was before Mike Greenburg called in reply to my phone messages to many Philadelphia attorneys. Mr. Greenburg's calm voice and to the point phone conversation gave me confidence and hope that all this mess could have a good outcome for us. And that, is exactly what happened. All three tickets were reduced or taken away so that they would never impact my driving record. Fines were reduced from nearly $2400.00 to $75.00. The traffic courts of Philadelphia has even issued a refund check for some of the money I paid at my next day arraignment when I appeared after the accident. The facts of the case were clear for sure, but Mike Greenburg convinced the courts that it was not enough to destroy a mans career forever. Truck driving is such a huge responsibility and I have learned so much from this experience with Mike Greenburg. In the future I will hold myself to a much higher standard in my profession because of my experience here.

Couldn't ask for better

Had a ticket that took 2 points off my license. He took care of matters very quickly. After giving him the info of what happened and the ticket info he immediately on the job and took care of things. He frequently updated me till court date. At court he talked to me before court got me relaxed and to...ld me not to worry and hope for the best. After long while of waiting (cuz courtroom opened late) he even told me the outcome which was no points on my license at all! Just a small fine. And he handled everything in the court. I pretty much didn't have to do anything. First attorney and was an excellent one. Very friendly and proffessional at the same time!

Definitely the traffic attorney you want on your side!

I received 5 points speed ticket in Chester County. I hired Mr. Greenberg as my attorney to present me in court. Mr. Greenberg was very knowledge of the laws, kept me updated throughout the case and got me not guility verdict. I would highly recommend him and would definitely use him again.

Trustworthy - Knowledgeable - Result Driven!!!!

I recently contacted Mr. Greenberg to assist me with getting avoiding a longer suspension period on top of the suspension I already was dealing with. Mr. Greenberg was amazing and persistent. I was pretty difficult to get in touch with as I was dealing with a family loss. He offered sound advice a...nd let me know what he felt confident he could achieve in regards to my situation. One of the most amazing things about Mr. Greenberg was the fact that I was very difficult to to get in touch with and actually retained him at the very last minute. Even with time being crunched he communicated effectively always responding to emails, call and text. It was as if he had been working with me for a year. He was able to pull my case together in 24 hours and achieved results better than I expected. My suspension was lifted and the pending extention diminsihed. Not only did he perform as stated he performed beyond my expectations. He is very straight forward and easy to talk to. He was understanding of my situation and even the situation causing me to be difficult to reach for a time period. With all that I had going on, I was very fortunate to have found Mr. Greenberg. He worked hard for me, didnt give up on me and got me the results I needed. Also of note, I contacted a few attorney's before finding Mr. Greenberg, most of them were slow to respond and condescending pricks when finally calling back. Not to mention over priced!

Great experience with Michael Greenberg

Michael Greenberg is first time getting a traffic lawyer and I couldn't be happier with the experience. I initially went to traffic court myself as I felt my reckless driving w/ 5 points and 6 month suspension was completely unwarranted. The prosecutor gave me the standard plea bargain of careless ...driving with 2 points. It was a take it or leave it deal and I couldn't even get ten words in. I decided to proceed with the hearing. Although the judge was sympathetic, he couldn't dismiss the charge without the officer being present and handed down a guilty verdict. After filing the appeal, I didn't want to risk my driver's license and decided to get representation. I found Michael randomly on Google and really didn't know what to expect. Luckily, Michael was very professional and walked me through the whole process. He broke down every step of the process from plea negotiations to trial strategies. If I ever had questions, Michael was always available through phone, email or text. On the day of the trial, the prosecutor asked me who my lawyer was. After responding, I could tell that Michael was well known and respected in the court. During the negotiations, Michael was able to bring in the prosecutor's manager to approve a deal. In the end, Michael avoided trial and reduce my reckless driving charge down to a no point offense with minimal fine. This is the best outcome I could have hoped for without having to risk a trial! During my time in court, I also noticed other lawyers not having any success in getting beyond the standard plea deal. Some of them didn't even know how insurance points worked! The prosecutor had to explain basic traffic law during the plea. I highly recommend Michael Greenberg!!
