Hire if you want him to work for your ex

If you want a lawyer that will not fight for you at all, hire Greg. Every step of the way in my divorce, all he did was take the easiest route to ensure an easy $30,000 in his pocket. He did nothing to fight for my assets or my child. If it wasn’t for the fact that I already had $30,000 invested I wo...uld have fired him and went with an attorney that would fight for my rights, not my exes rights.

Lazy pencil pusher

He’s a 9-5 er lawyer who has is assistant do the work. Never did much but watch the clock spin for payment. Don’t waste your time or money.

Above and Beyond

I believe I had one of the more contentious divorces for Greg's firm and I can attest to his above and beyond stance. He spent many a long hour into the night emailing or talking with me on the phone to ease my anxiety from all that was being thrown at me by a very vengeful Ex. The Divorce lasted a v...ery long time with numerous calls back to court by the Ex for years after. Greg stood firmly beside me and protected me, esp. when leaving the court...as I had a retraining order and my Ex was very volatile. I Highly Recommend Greg and his firm. They helped me more than I could have ever imagined I would need.

A professional partner

Greg has been supportive, organized, and professional in helping me decide how to pursue my divorce case. The folks in his office are also helpful and professional.

Very Disappointed

I guess I would recommend him if you need an "9-5" case resolved. Nothing "time of the essence" or out of the "normal" realm. He was very nice, and his staff, usually. But when I retained him, I stressed an "urgent" situation and he took 2 weeks to even "look" at my case. Consistently forgot our c...onversations and double billed for them, lost my paperwork, got angry with me when I stressed, as I did when he was retained, what I wanted accomplished, and it never was. He Recommended a friend of his as an accountant, and neither of them accomplished anything working together as they were supposed to, in fact, they forgot that they were even supposed to be working together (2 months later), (while it was a money "coming in" easily, and never was accomplished) and seemed to me to be practicing "multiple representation" between my EX husband and I (but I was the one who was paying while my ex had no attorney), and was denied to be able to hear what my ex was saying to him. Just disappointment after disappointment and frustration after frustration. This is my 1st review EVER so that says something I believe. His original game talk didn't follow the game plan......or even come close. Sorry.

Of course there are usually two sides to every story. I suspect the "9 to 5" reference related to the time this client scheduled an office conference at 4:00 pm on a Friday, did not show up until 4:45 pm, and was upset when I made clear I had to leave by 5:00 pm. As for the "multiple representation" reference, it goes without saying that if the opposing party has no attorney, I need to communicate directly with that opponent in order to make progress for the client. Most people understand this. Apparently some don't. Divorce is often a difficult and stressful situation and I do my best to make it less so for my clients.
