Greg is a team-player who puts an emphasis on being responsive to clients and those with whom he works -- “The client’s problem becomes our problem." Clients appreciate his ability to quickly master facts and issues. He also values what professionalism and civility can bring to the table in solving problems. As he puts it, "having lawyers on each side who can effectively communicate with one another is typically of great benefit to clients -- particularly so in contentious matters or wherever there are strained relationships."
Complementing his appreciation for "all things music", Greg and his wife are keen travellers - be it trips afar or hitching-up their tear-drop RV for North American destinations. In either case, he will likely have packed his blues harmonica just in case an opportunity for an impromptu jam arises.
