Effective and Honest Attorney

I have known Mr. McCracken for nearly 10 years. He represented me in a business matter with the utmost professionalism, and achieved a successful income with which my business partner and I were very pleased. He is patient and kind, and takes special care to understand his client's specific objecti...ves and explain all legal options and any potential ramifications in the most clear and concise way possible. I would highly recommend Mr. McCracken for any of your legal needs.

Divorce/Custody

Mr. Greg McCracken was highly recommended to me by another professional and friend who had gone through a similar situation. Having completed the legal proceedings at this point, I can also recommend Mr. McCracken without reservation. He is a consummate professional and a true gentleman. The proc...ess was lengthy, nerve-wracking and expensive, as most contentious divorces and custody cases are. I had never been through any kind of legal process before and was out of my depth. I had no idea what my options were or what to expect at the start in such an emotionally charged and disruptive issue. Mr. McCracken was able to both reassure me and clearly explain the laws and process without overwhelming me. I found Mr. McCracken to be pragmatic and still be responsive, compassionate, and respectful. I had many questions over a long period of time, which he attempted to answer clearly, in a timely manner and always with patience, despite being an extremely busy attorney. Mr. McCracken provided excellent legal advice as we navigated through a difficult, ever-changing landscape courtesy of my now ex-husband, who did his best to manipulate the system, draw the divorce out and make it as expensive as possible for me while attempting to leave me and the children with as little a settlement as possible. Mr. McCracken was forthright in his dealings with me and provided invaluable legal representation and moral support especially at my hearing. He stood up for me and the children and prevented us from being taken advantage of by my ex-husband and his lawyer. I cannot imagine going through the entire experience, particularly the hearing, without Mr. McCracken's expert legal experience and singular poise. Mr. McCracken protected my and my children's best interests and worked with me on the financial aspects of my case until all matters were resolved. Mr. McCracken earned my trust and respect by guiding me through the most incredibly stressful and painful experience of my life. I would not hesitate to hire him again.
