A lawyer for an artist!

Greg is an excellent lawyer. I sought his counsel before signing contracts and developing my own art business contracts. I can honestly say that he made me feel comfortable and knowledgeable about what contracts means, what they should include, legalese language etc. He explained it in simple terms ...which I really appreciated. He is extremely patient, prompt, and responsive. I was very happy with his service and will continue to seek his counsel in my future endeavors. I highly recommend him!

I worked with Greg to set up my small business and I'm so incredibly glad I did! I had not business experience whatsoever and was very nervous about the entire process. Greg was extremely reassuring, reliable, responsive to all of my needs, and he gave the much needed confidence to get through the e...ntire process. He's prompt and on top of the communication process, logistics with documents, etc. which was wonderful. I would absolutely hire him again in a heart beat, and I am always happy to rant and rave about him to my colleagues and friends!

Highly recommended

I was referred to Greg by a trusted colleague because I needed some legal things done for a huge IP project I have been working on. I was apprehensive at first because I have had some negative experiences working with confidential information on other projects. Greg did a great job in helping me pla...n what we were going to do. He put concepts that were foreign to me in layman's terms without making me feel dumb. He stuck to the timeline perfectly while giving me grace when I was a little slow in completing my portions. He provided his professional opinions on priority and needs which saved me a lot of money and time. Great communication makes for successful projects and Greg made this a perfect experience. I always felt like he was "my" lawyer and worked for my best interest. I could not be more pleased and look forward to working with him in the future.
