Mr. Abney has dedicated his practice to providing personal, one-to-one legal services at a reasonable cost to clients. The legal community and society have moved to automation, economy of scale, and assembly line approaches to reduce cost. Mr. Abney has moved to reduction of overhead and reduction of redundancy (too many people doing the same thing and charging for it) to reduce costs so that he can provide direct and personal contact to his clients, instead of automation or redundancy. This allows Mr. Abney to provide services for a generally lower cost and to provide the client with direct access to the attorney who will be with the client throughout the case.
Mr. Abney is a litigation attorney practicing family law in Montgomery County and surrounding counties. He is a member in good standing with the Maryland State Bar Association, the Montgomery County Bar Association, and the Maryland Association for Justice (formerly the Maryland Trial Lawyers Association). He earned his undergraduate degree in Political Science from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, graduating magna cum laude. He then attended the University of Maryland School of Law, where he earned his Juiris Doctorate. He is admitted to practice in all Maryland State Courts, in Washington D.C., and the U.S. Federal District Courts of Maryland.
Prior to becoming an attorney, Mr. Abney was a member of the U.S. Army and stationed at several army bases in the U.S. and in the Pacific. After his military service, and while attending school, Mr. Abney worked for a multinational private sector corporation as a product coordinator in tactical marketing. It is this previous experience that Mr. Abney credits for his understanding of professions and occupations outside of the legal arena. This understanding, he believes, allows him to provide high quality legal representation to many of his clients.

I had the pleasure of working with Greg Abney on my custody case, and I can't recommend him highly enough.

Mr. Abney, has been my lawyer for 10 years. After my initial consultation over the phone and meeting with him, he explained what I needed to do to get my divorce, save my investments and sell my home. Actually, it took years to settle the issues with my ex-husband in regards to selling of the marit...

From the time my initial consultation ended I was relieved that I would be dealing with Greg. His knowledge and experience showed immediately and continued to be a great asset throughout the entire process.

I interviewed several attorneys and chose Greg Abney and I am very glad I did. It was not a simple case, included military pension, and inherited assets, and he kept me on track through several curve balls which he handled like a pro. Always responsive to my calls and emails, he explained things cl...
