Todd Green

Todd was engaged by business associates of mine (I am a corporate, transactional lawyer) to advise them in connection with an investment-related dispute. He performed admirably in counseling with his clients, filing persuasive court documents and, eventually, guiding his clients to a satisfactory se...ttlement. Todd is smart, hard-working, responsive, personable and knowledgeable, and consistently demonstrated sound judgment in representing and advising his client. I heartily recommend him.

To the Rescue

I've worked with dozens of attorneys in my 30 years of business but very few litigators. I had an unfortunate situation arise involving a contractual/shareholder dispute with a company that I had invested in and was introduced to Todd by a very experienced friend roughly 18 months ago. I immediately ...liked Todd's style and hired him. During the case Todd absolutely proved to be the right choice. He was knowledgeable, practical, and most importantly, laid out all the options to me in a detailed and comprehensive way at each step in the case which empowered me ultimately to choose the best path given my comfort level and with a full scematic of options. No agenda from Todd. Just pluses and minuses and I'll take it where you direct. His knowledge and experience proved to be a steady hand at critical times when others were letting emotion cloud judgement. I'm happy to say that the situation has now been resolved to our great satisfaction and probably on as quick a timeline as could have been expected. I wouldn't hesitate to retain Todd again or refer him to a close friend. Robert

Business Litigation Professional

I met with Todd Green based on a referral and our family hired him almost immediately. First impressions were that he was professional, knowledgeable and honest, which proved to be accurate through the entirety of our business relationship. The lawsuit was complicated, involved and spanned several... decades; Mr. Green methodically dissected the case, put together a defense plan, worked the plan and ultimately secured a successful settlement agreement. Having never gone through any type of litigation, we were kept fully and honestly informed as to the status of the case, how it was proceeding, and the timeline of upcoming events. As the case continued on and our family grew weary with the delays and motions, Mr. Green never wavered. He kept us on track, always moving forward to the final goal of either settlement or trial. It was Todd Green's expert handling of our lawsuit that won our case and spared us a lengthy trial. Todd worked tirelessly for us throughout the entirety of our case and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone seeking a litigation attorney.

CEO/President

As the CEO and President of MORE Media Group, inc a media and marketing company in Los Angeles I found myself in a situation with a client that was unprovoked. Having been in the entertainment and media business for 37 years I had not ever been sued nor have I ever sued anyone or any company. ... This client attempted to sue my firm and many of the other vendors along the way because of their shortcomings and reckless business practices. I was very fortunate to find Todd Green and his associates in Newport Beach California. Todd and his Team are brilliant attorneys and they are in it to win it, with a very programmatic and very strategic methodology. Their surgical approach to understand the matter at hand and discern the best strategy given the law and best practices surrounding the issue makes them invaluable. I can highly recommend them and if you are in need of legal representation and you want to retain the "Best of the Best" I encourage you to retain: Green LLC, Newport Beach California. They were able to fend off and win, "3" attempted complaints in the Superior Court as well as "1" attempt in the appellate court all from the same moronic client. Sincerely Todd Thank You for everything you did on this journey, I could not would not have wanted to do it without you. If you would like to contact me pertaining to retaining to Todd to represent you for more information, please feel free. Bill

Legal Consulting for Business

Todd has represented our company in a number of contractual and litigation matters, each with success. Todd's approach comes from a "business matters" view, responding quickly when it matters, being forceful when that is appropriate, and compromising on small matters when the a fair deal is the prima...ry objective. He not only brings his legal expertise to the table, but also offers strategic approaches to achieving the end goal. He will take the time to understand exactly what our end goal is, and our minimum expectation so that he can formulate an approach that will best achieve those goals. His billings have always fairly represented the work performed (no surprises). When it comes to litigation, Todd approaches a case with the seriousness and forethought a lawsuit deserves. He is very aware of the costs and is transparent throughout the process. His communications with opposing council has always been concise, confident and strongly legal or factual based. He is very effective in these communications. I would recommend Todd to any business that needs an attorney with their contracts or with their legal disputes.
