PAID FOR REPRESENTATION THAT WAS NEVER RECEIVED

No communication, no action, closed case and refunded 50% of money —requested an invoice for services rendered for the other 50% and they did not deliver— what a terrible place —would not recommend.

DWI Defense

Hired Craig for my DWI case and won. He saved my life and my job and would recommend his service.

Absolutely the best & brightest lawyer around!

Craig is one of the finest criminal defense attorneys around. He's incredibly courteous and makes himself readily available to his clients. He has a case management software program that lets you correspond with him via messaging (super convenient). This is great because the same system sends you not...ifications for your hearings dates & times, scheduled conference calls/meetings and updates in the status of your case. Even if Craig is in trial, I almost always receive same day answers to my questions that I submit to him. Moreover, Craig is a fantastic litigator who not only knows the law, he connects to the judge and juries. He is very personable and there is no doubt in my mind that he is fighting for me in every possible way. Craig is a true trial lawyer, not one of those attorneys that tries to plea out your case so he can be done with you. If you’re charged with a crime, the legal process can be a scary. By hiring Craig, I could have not made a better choice with whom to trust my freedom!

Best Lawyer I know!

He has done everything possible with my case in helping me with information, paying, and doing the most and best he can for it with the situations and outcome!! He listened to me and my s/o when we first met to talk about it. I was absolutely sick and terrified at first and he has eased a lot of my s...tress and tension with how he is professional and courteous! He makes your feel comfortable each and every time you speak to him or see him; he makes time for you if you feel the need to ask question about anything. I've already told several people about him and will continue!!!!

My Hero

Mr. Greening did an amazing job with my case! I was charged with a class A misdemeanor, and he was able to get the case dismissed very quickly! He works really hard on making sure his clients questions are answered, and he is willing to have last minute meetings whenever we would like to meet with hi...m. I am very pleased with his service, and if needed (God forbid I get in any trouble again), would definitely want him as my lawyer again!
