Great Lawyer

When I was charged with possession of a gun in California. I didn't know who to call me being from out state. I found Greg in a google search I didn't have a lot of money he worked with me and I was able to retain his services. Greg is one awesome Lawyer he got my felony charges dismissed and got me... a Plea bargain for a single Misdemeanor charge and one year Summary probation. I am so glad I found Greg. I highly recommend Greg H Comings give him a call you'll be glad you did.

Greg is awesome!!

Let me start off by saying Greg is definitely one of the best lawyers I've ever worked with. After receiving my 3rd Dui I knew I was in big trouble but Greg assured me everything would be okay. Court went much better than I expected & I'm happy to say I just completed all my court required classes. T...hank you so much Mr. Comings you have no idea how much you've helped me.

None better

Being a teacher, I deal with unprofessionalism on a daily basis..when my brother got himself in trouble, the last thing I wanted was more stress. Greg is a very professional and down to earth man whom I had the pleasure of working with to help my brother. He knows the law very well, and won't beat ar...ound the bush. My brother was facing prison but Greg got us a great deal. I can't think of anyone better to aid you in your lawful quarry.

Thank you Mr. Comings!

We saw many different attorneys before we decided to hire Mr. Comings. The fees attorneys quoted us were all over the place. We were so confused on which attorney to hire. Well, we decided on Mr. Comings and it turned out to be the best thing we could have done. He is a straight shooter. He told us t...he case was bad and even encouraged us to talk to other attorneys and go with the one we found we "clicked" with. Mr. coming was able to work with the District Attorney and get us a great deal. We will be forever grateful to have found him! Thank you Mr. Comings, you gave us a second chance!

Smart Lawyer

My son faced a felony drug charge. My Comings was able to get probation and community service instead of prison time! From Jose and the rest of the family - Thank You!!!!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
