Great Lawyer

I was facing 20 years for selling drugs and Jim Greene was able to secure probation for me. I was on probation when I caught the charge and he still got me a probated sentence. He walked me through the entire process and never quit fighting for me. He worked a miracle for me and I know others who can... say the same.

Excellent - Got my kids back

I am a man and James Greene helped me get custody of my kids. If you know anything about Kentucky law, you know this is an amazing feat. He is a busy man and does all kinds of work for all kinds of people but he took time to listen to me and help me. He helped me get full custody of my kids back from... my ex-wife. Great guy, great lawyer.

Do NOT spend your money on him!

Greene was my lawyer for my divorce, and completely ruined my life. I was clueless about divorce, and looked to him for guidance and help. I trusted him, as I thought he would do everything in his power to help me. I was wrong, he advised me to agree to EVERYTHING my ex wife's lawyer tried for, and I... listened because I trusted him. He said we wouldn't win against her. In the end, I owe my ex wife $2205.00 a month for child support (3 children), maintenance (Greene told me I had to pay it-which I later found out is untrue), and my 401k (i also later found out that according to the law, you have to be married 10 years at least to qualify for your spouse's 401k). My ex wife and I were married for only a year and then filed for divorce. I thoroughly suggest you don't go to this man for a lawyer.

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.
