Jeffrey N Greenblatt

I'm a US Navy veteran. Anyone who has served in the USN knows that it's the master chiefs that really know how to sail the warships and fight them to win--the battle and the war. The family law environment was an eye-opening experience for this unwilling participant after a 31 year relationship w...ith four children. I was in a moribund and catastrophic situation because I tried to be the gentleman and was significantly under-represented in the first go-round. Mr. Greenblatt and his professional associates were able to work with an "impossible hand", and got me to safe haven with an air-tight renegotiated VSPSA. Do it right the first time. Don't bring a knife to a gun-fight. Come armed to the teeth, and then exercise the luxury of being kind afterwards. Mr. Greenblatt and his associates materially saved me from an unimaginably horrific fate. They "pulled a rabbit out of a hat". He is the equivalent of a US Navy Master Chief, and that's the highest complement I can pay to any professional.

I have gone through a tough divorce and was at the receiving end of unjust decisions because my ex had an exceptional lawyer and I did not know or could not afford a similar lawyer. I was tossed around twice. Finally one of my friends suggested Mr Greenblatt and I could not be more happier. He is tou...gh but realistic and sometimes you may find it difficult to communicate with him. But remember, he is just preparing you so that you do not falter on the day of trial. He knew my case and my life better than me. That should explain how thorough he is. He is a real trial lawyer (not the typical family lawyer who is doing negotiations and claiming to be trial lawyers) and if you have a case that you need a judge to decide, hire him and you won't regret it. Yes, he is expensive but hey, you only get what you pay for. I am happy that he is on my side. May God bless him with a long life.

I wish I could write a great review on Mr. Greenblatt, but unfortunately I was unable to see him as scheduled. Initially I was quoted a $195 consultation fee in which I was eager to schedule a consultation session. Prior to the appointment I confirmed with the assistant, Stephanie, that the consultat...ion fee was $195 and that my appointment was on the books. When I arrived the appointment I was not respectfully greeted by the secretary and felt spoken down to. The receptionist looked my mother and I up and down and asked if we were in the right place or needed help. I informed her that I had an appointment with Mr. Greenblatt and provided her with my name. The secretary handed me a clipboard and told me to fill out the documents the best I can. I noticed a big difference between the consultation feel quoted to me on the phone and that documented on the paperwork. When I inquired about the vast difference, the receptionist scoffed at me stating "Mr. Greenblatt charges at minimum $495 and there is no lawyer in this firm that will meet with anyone for less than maybe $295… and that's maybe a one-time agreement ". I informed the receptionist that I scheduled the consultation due to Mr. Greenblatt's rave reviews and reasonable fees. The receptionist had no response and stated that $495 was the standard fee for initial consultations and the minimum for an hourly rate if I could afford his services. I was extremely disappointment because I was looking forward to getting his guidance regarding my family law case. If you have the money to afford a minimum $495 hour rate, then maybe he will represent you well. However, if you do not have that type of money it would be best to seek services from another firm.
