Save your money

Just finished my case. She is great on the phone when you speak to her for the consultation. However, once you hire her, her paralegal does all the work. She was a no show to many of our scheduled appointments. She prolonged the case and was not on top of my case leading me to pay more fees at the en...d.

Consult

I was expecting a better service, I explained my case and requested and answer if she was able to help. She texted me 1 time. After giving her basic details she never texted or call me back to schedule an appointment

I apologize if there was miscommunication. This was a call for which you were not charged and I believe I sent my details thinking you would call my office to schedule an appointment if you wanted a consultation. I get many calls from people every day some of whom are calling multiple attorneys and I do my best to get back to people who are seeking representation. Feel free to call or email my office to discuss. Good luck.

Tracy Green is amazing!!!

When I had a question about how to get my RN license after waiting 5 months - she answered my questions very promptly! She took time out her weekend to call me and go through all of the steps I have done - THEN she called me back after she did her own research on what might have kept my application w...ith the state held up. She told me to fill out the appropriate paperwork and with ONE WEEK --- I had my license!!! I can't tell you how much I appreciated Tracy taking time out of her weekend with her family to help me! She was AMAZING! I highly recommend her! She will make sure you are taken care of!!! DeAnna ;-)

Outstanding Attorney

I’m a registered Architect with over 30 years of design and building experience and have worked on both the East and West Coast of the United States. I was fortunate to meet Tracy about 13 years ago shortly after moving to the greater Los Angeles area. Tracy came highly recommended by an old friend w...ho she helped navigate a serious legal matter. Since meeting Tracy, Green Associates has provided me with valuable legal advice on more than one occasion. Three times to be exact, I wouldn’t seek advice from anyone else. I have grown to appreciate her smart, thoughtful and thorough approach to solving complex legal issues. Her quick grasp of concepts and details is second only to her stellar research abilities. I have worked with several attorneys prior to working with Tracy and she is by far the most authentic, brilliant and conscientious attorney I have ever worked with. In one case Green Associates helped me resolve a complex real estate / business Partnership with an old friend on the East Coast. With Tracy’s help I was able to resolve this mismanaged real estate case and walk away with funds that I honestly thought were gone forever. Tracy researched the case and stated that I had solid grounds to bring my partner to court for mismanagement. I knew we could win this court case with Tracy at my side. I resisted taking this route since my family and my partner’s family have been friends for over 50 years and live in the same town. I wanted to avoid any undue tension between our respective families. Once again, Tracy was able to negotiate a settlement that was acceptable to me while sparing my former Partners reputation, not to mention sparing his family from the trauma of a law suit. Thankfully Tracy provided me enough facts and evidence to make an informed decision. Years later I know I made the correct decision with Tracy’s legal support and advice. I haven’t always been in a position to pay Tracy immediately for her legal services. Tracy understands that we all go through difficult periods in our lives and she is always there to help and work out a fair solution. We even bartered services on an earlier case which helped me out tremendously. What other attorney would do this, especially in Los Angeles? This speaks volumes to her kindness, strong character and love of her profession. If anyone suggests otherwise they are probably not being truthful. On a more personal note, I know Tracy as an incredibly dedicated mom who despite her busy work schedule always finds time for her family and time to volunteer in her community. Tracy is an outstanding individual and someone I admire. I feel very fortunate to have met Tracy and I am happy to now call her my friend. I highly recommend Green Associates for all of your business or personal legal matters.

Top Notch Attorney With a Heart

I’m writing in immediate response to a “made-up” defamatory review that was posted to this attorney’s profile. Truly absurd. Anyone who has worked with Tracy Green knows that she is a very gifted and empathetic attorney. In addition to her vast knowledge and professionalism, she is personable and has... a keen understanding of people. In mid 2007 I was involved in a “made-up” crime by a scorned and vindictive ex-girlfriend who was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. Throughout the duration of my case, (and even beyond) she was extremely responsive and thoroughly communicated all the details, leaving me with nothing unanswered. Moreover, Tracy went the extra mile and transformed my dire predicament into a much more favorable/manageable one. She diligently followed through until the end. As the consequences of my situation left me with financial difficulty, she was kind enough to accept payment in the form of a barter arrangement (tennis lessons) that incidentally, she still has not yet fully redeemed. Once you meet Tracy, it will become very apparent that she’s a top notch attorney and an exceptional person to boot. She always gives all she’s got to her clients, and then some...
