Gregg M. Rosenberg

I am not blaming this lawyer/firm for my lack of case (though I may disagree with it) however what DOES irk me is that I had to pay $500.00 in ADVANCE for a consultation, which was a whopping 6 minutes long, in which he curtly told me "I have no case." I don't mind frankness, as I'm a very direct/st...raight-shooter myself, but I had sent him the details of my situation to review prior to this, and he messaged me on only hour before our scheduled consultation (after reviewing what I had sent him, I'm fairly certain) that "I look forward to working with you." WHY would you give me these false pretenses of hope, if you KNEW well and good that (in YOUR opinion) I did not have a case? That was the most expensive, and useless, 6-8 minutes of my life! I've consulted lawyers before, and I was always paid after the fact. Furthermore, he began the meeting by mentioning "sorry for the mess behind me, we're getting ready for a big case to go to court." I'm paraphrasing a bit, but the point is, that's not a very professional way to began a meeting with any client. It can lead them to believe that you're not interested in taking their case because you're preoccupied with "bigger/more lucrative fish at the moment." On the PLUS side, his client coordinators (Ocie and Paralegal Jordan) are extremely nice and professional, some of the best I have ever dealt with in that kind of secretarial/administrative capacity! Kudos to them! It is because of them that I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1.

Mr. Rosenberg was hired to represent me in a lawsuit against my ex-employer. It took over 2 years to get it settled. Most of the time I thought that he and his staff had forgotten that I even existed. Months would go by with no phone call or email regarding status. I decided to settle because I l...ost confidence in him and his staff; even though he stated a couple of times that he felt confident that he would win in court. His staff was inexperienced and disorganized. He wasn't worth the 40 percent he received from the settlement in addition to the expenses I had to reimburse. If I had to do it all over again I would have gone with a different attorney.
