Posted by Kendra | December 20, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Ethics & Professional Responsibility

Responsive and competent

Mr. Greenberg is an excellent attorney. In the context of professional responsibility issues before the bar, he has a good rapport with the necessary individuals and does a superb job of explaining one's circumstances sympathetically. He performed spot-on research tailored to my individual case and w...as extremely responsive to all of my inquiries along the way. Perhaps almost as important, he was professional yet warm, and I felt comfortable with him. I really don't know how he could have been better.

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.
