Whether it is a tricky employment issue, a business dispute, a complex litigation matter, or court-martials for military members across the world, Greg fights to help clients minimize risk and solve problems.

Greg helps individuals and businesses minimize risk and solve problems. When necessary, he fights for clients at trials and administrative hearings. Greg strives to take ownership of client’s challenges so they can get back to focusing on their businesses, their lives, and their families.


Greg has handled more than 150 trials and administrative hearings, giving him the ability to adjust case strategy in real time as needed. This experience also helps him identify when a negotiated resolution is in a client’s best interests.

Business clients look to Greg to help them make good decisions and avoid liability. He has assisted small and mid-sized businesses throughout the state of Connecticut, including bars and restaurants, with their legal needs for years.

Greg, a former trial attorney in the JAG Corps of the United States Air Force, provides representation to military members worldwide. He has secured multiple full acquittals for military clients and saved millions of dollars in potential retirement losses for military members in all branches of service.

Greg prides himself on being available to clients before a challenge turns into a problem. He encourages clients to reach out for guidance the moment a potential legal issue arises. Whether it is a tricky employment issue, a business dispute, a complex litigation matter, or a court-martial across the world, he will fight to help clients obtain the best possible outcome. Greg’s ultimate goal is to help clients avoid the need to sue or defend a case.
