Posted by anonymous | April 24, 2025 | Hired Attorney | Drug Crime

He is a fantastic lawyer he’ll go to bat for you

I got in trouble with the police because of drugs and not knowing my rights Gregg help me stay out of jail to be with my family and start a new life. He is a family man and a good lawyer and works with payments.

Fantastic Attorney!

Greg is fantastic! Since the first day, he has been extremely thorough with my case. He makes sure I understand the process before proceeding with litigation. His expert knowledge is beyond valuable! He litigates with such brilliance in court, leading to justice being served! He is patient, kind and ...understanding, but also a fire ball when needed on the behalf of his clients. It's very reassuring to know that I have him to fight on my behalf! If I could give him a "10" star rating, I would! I strongly recommend Greg Smith and Associates!

Posted by James | January 15, 2020 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Should 11 stars! Greg is a rockstar!

He has been incredibly helpful in a custody case where the opposition was making wild and incredulous claims against me. While the consular did not allow us to submit our case due to some paperwork errors, he guided me through proving myself in the eyes of the court.

Incredible & Experienced Lawyer - Wage Dispute Assistance; Highly Recommend

I spoke with Debbie and was scheduled for a free consultation with Greg. Debbie was an absolute joy, she was informative, helpful and had a wonderful energy on the phone. Greg Smith offers flexible hours and when I inquired how early he would be available to meet, Debbie told me that he has met w...ith people as early as 6:00am. This impressed me as it spoke to the nature of Greg's business, his character and the care for those he would represent. I appreciated his willingness to do a free consultation whenever it was most convenient for me, knowing it could be just that; a consultation. I know that I'm not unique to this treatment but, knew that meant everyone receives the same open opportunity as I had, with Greg keeping them as priority one. When you think of a Lawyer, often you think of someone who is intimidating and because of that, I was a little nervous for our consultation. Upon meeting him, I was immediately comfortable. Greg has a welcoming and warm demeanor; his presence states authority without relaying intimation. I informed him of my situation (delay of payment after termination with my employer) and he immediately drafted a letter to send out to my previous place of employment. We are currently awaiting a response. I am thrilled to have found Greg and Debbie! It is daunting to stand up for what is rightfully yours against a company but, to have the right people in your corner gives you the confidence to do so, comfort knowing that you will be taken care of and enables you to feel empowered. I would highly recommend Greg Smith!

Experience

I was so relieved to find an experienced, honest, caring attorney to handle my case. I felt like he really listened and truly fought for me. He put my fears at ease and was available at any time I needed, even when it was outside regular business hours he would respond. I am so thankful for his exper...ience and ability to easily handle my case.

"Greg hired me to work for him a week before I was sworn in as a lawyer. I spent 18 months working at his firm. It was so easy to see when I was working for him, and it is absolutely still true today: Greg has such a big heart. He is willing to take on cases that a lot of lawyers will not touch. His desire is to help everyone that comes into his office."

"I endorse this lawyer. Greg is a very unique lawyer. He is a fierce advocate, who fights to get you the best result possible, without charging you for every billable hour possible. He is, probably, overly fair in his pricing, and very easy to work with concerning payments."

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse this lawyer. Greg has successfully handled more criminal cases than any other attorney I know. Experience counts and Greg has see it all. Even if you already have an attorney it may be worth your time to get a second opinion from Greg. Additionally, I don't know any other attorney that does what Greg does; he makes big cases affordable by allowing reasonable payments and not overcharging. He takes clients that other attorneys will not touch. Before you hire an attorney give him a call."

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.
