About Bernard
Biography
Mr. Greenberg has specialized in estate planning and estate and trust administration for more than 41 years.
"I take a client centered approach to estate planning. This means that the client's goals and situation drive their estate planning, not what I believe may be important. This is different from others who try to force clients into a pre-defined pattern or type of plan." This client-centered approach is critical since the passage of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012.

Bernard Harley Greenberg's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have worked with and for Bernie for over three years in our firm's estate planning and probate department. Bernie is an exceptional attorney; I would recommend him to anyone for estate planning and probate matters. In addition to the high level of service he gives to his clients, Bernie goes out of his way to mentor other attorneys and to serve his community."
"Bernie and I are both members of the DEBA mentoring committee and through our work on that committee Bernie has taught me a lot about professionalism. In addition, as a fellow attorney practicing in an overlapping legal field, I have found Bernie is a knowledgeable and experienced attorney, who has a knack for thoroughly analyzing any legal problem to determine the best possible outcome. His advice has helped me in advising my own clients."
