Mr. Greenbaum called me back when I was seeking answers to a simple question regarding my company. I was surprised by how helpful and honest he was. We ended up not working together, as he referred me to another lawyer for my question -- but this is exactly the type of person I'd want to work with, should my firm's needs align with his expertise. read more

Excellent advice. Excellent attorney. Small business owners take note. "If there were no bad people, there would be no good lawyers." Charles Dickens read more

Richard set up an LLC for me in one month. He asked for a flat fee up front then got to work. He made the required filings with the California Secretary of State, requested an EIN number for the IRS, generated an Operating Agreement and is now my acting Agent for Service of Process. As a brand-new business owner, I had contemplated trying to set up the business myself, but now I can see that I made the right decision to go with Richard. Everything he did was complete and professional. I marveled at the detail he put into the Operating Agreement including items that I never would have thought to include. I felt good about submitting Richard's paperwork for my city business license because it looked professional. Richard is very responsive and easy to work with. I plan to go back to him for other business law items. I recommend him for your business law projects. read more

I did not retain Mr. Greenbaum because he does not specialize in my specific situation. I'm having an issue with my landlord and I left a quite lengthy and detailed message of my issue on his voicemail and he was kind enough to call me back and provide which type of lawyer I needed. I was not able to actually speak to him but he left clear details with specifics to look up that would help my case which is for "tenant rights" He did not have to return my call but I greatly appreciate his time as I now am on the right path. He literally was the only attorney who returned my voicemail and let me know what type I should be researching. Thank you for helping!! read more

I had a problem with a tenant and even though Richard couldn't help he gave me a call back and suggested some lawyers that could help.

100 Stars is more like it! First off... Richard comes to the table with a down to earth, patient, kind, and comforting presence. Whereas some legal advisers and attorneys I've dealt with come off as arrogant, rude, or belittling... That is certainly not the case with Richard. Even though our particular case was out of the ordinary; Richard was there to work with us throughout the whole process, guide us in the right direction, and most importantly assure us that EVERYTHING WOULD BE OKAY! Which was reassuring and definitely helped me sleep at night. Richard is communicative, calming, confident, and SHARP! He has earned my business (whether reactive or proactive) for any future legal advice and assistance. Thank you Richard! You ROCK!!!! read more

Rich was quick to respond and easy to work with. Look no further for legal assistance!

This review is long overdue. I was in the process of buying a property and to make a very long story story there were shady things happening behind the scenes with my agent (who was representing me and the seller) where I was being coerced into signing documents and making agreements for things I knew weren't in my best interest so I called Richard. Richard was able to help me navigate the situation and ultimately give me the peace of mind knowing I was justified in standing up for myself since my agent wasn't doing that for me. He was very easy to reach every time I was in a crisis and followed up with me constantly to ensure I was doing okay. He was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout my nightmare home buying process. He is truly a gem and I can't thank him enough. read more

Richard is a great attorney and a great guy. We knew that we'd dialed the right number on our first call when Richard answered the phone! He did all of the work to establish our small business as an S-Corporation. Richard has also advised us about how to work through other government requirements, such as the DBA and business license. In addition, he's provided referrals to other resources that we need to get started. Bottom line: Richard is accessible, very knowledgeable, and interactions are fun. We look forward to a long association. read more

Being the sole proprietor of a small business, there have been a handful of times I've been in need of legal counsel.

Just called to get information on a shared wall I want repaired between my neighbor and myself and wow! Mr. Greenbaum answered the phone and answered all my questions! And he was respectful, clear, charming, and best of all experienced enough to understand likely neighbor behavior and likely legal ramifications outcomes of differing scenarios. He was fair and open and that was a refreshing take after some other interaction I have had lately with another attorney. Ethical and knowledgable legal advice is important and the best way to save time and act appropriately when there are decisions to be made that total thousands of dollars and impact important neighborly relationships. I appreciate Mr. Greenbaum's integrity and recommend him highly. Good legal advice is SO beneficial to the well being of everyone concerned. read more

Having moved across the country to LA a year and a half ago, I was devastated when a creditor found me and served me with legal papers at my place of business where I work as a mid level employee. I was shocked, embarrassed in front of my coworkers and frightened. I didn't know what to do. I found a lawyer in Pasadena who read the papers and scared me beyond belief by saying I had to also hire a NY lawyer to help them with the NY law aspects of the case. All I could think about was the checks I would write for legal services alone! I was being sued on a loan my late husband and I took out on our home seven years ago. After my husband died, I was unable to continue paying and thought they would just foreclose and I would be protected. As it turned out, it was a loan on the home but also had my personal guarantee. I knew I was in trouble. The last thing I needed was a big law firm diving head first into endless and very expensive litigation. I was living in fear of not only the tens of thousands of dollars owed on the note, but the additional costs and attorneys' fees that I would also have to pay according to the terms of the loan. What I needed was an aggressive, gifted, negotiator. I wanted to be out of this hot water before it came time to serve my responsive pleadings which are not cheap in this sort of case. I needed help negotiating a settlement. Of course, I was well aware of the fact that the plaintiff was a bank and banks are the last bastions of "DENY!" They did not want to hear anything but the sound of my pen on a check for sums of money that would make anyone have a nervous breakdown. A few weeks ago I was referred by a friend to Righard Greenbaum. I didn't know anything about his practice and had never met him. He didn't know me from a hole in the wall. Why should he help me? I was immediately placed in direct contact, faxed the pleadings to Richard and within a week he had gotten an extension and more importantly had laid the groundwork for a settlement that would be easy, cheap and very fair to both sides, mostly me. I have never heard of anyone successfully battling a bank and winning when clearly the facts were stacked one sided in the bank's favor. Being sued is overwhelming and emotional. If it were not for Richard Greenbaum, I would probably be a basket case by now. He is a master negotiator, a brilliant legal technician and a compassionate human being. You will not regret placing your legal fate in his hands. read more

Look no further! My sister and I went through the ringer searching high and low for a business lawyer for our business development and contracts.

I called him over the phone the first time and he picked up right away and was warm and very easy to talk to.

I first contacted Richard Greenbaum about two years ago, for assistance with a complicated business contract. Our newly formed small company was presented with the contract, and told that we had less than one week to review and execute it, as there were other companies ready to proceed if we did not. Although it sounded like an excellent opportunity, my partner and I were concerned about entering into the agreement, without first talking to an attorney. We asked around for a referral, and fortunately I was referred to Mr. Greenbaum by a business owner acquaintance, who said he had been Mr. Greenbaum's client for several years. Mr. Greenbaum made time for us immediately. He reviewed the contract and explained why we should not sign it as it was written. He renegotiated the contract, so that it was fair and acceptable to both parties. In addition to helping us get a very favorable deal, he was extremely reassuring throughout the process, and he relieved a great deal of personal stress for me. We have utilized Richard's legal services several times since that first contract, and would never sign anything without first calling him. I have referred Richard to several friends and family members, and everyone has been extremely satisfied with the results, as well the personal and professional manner in which he treated them. I will go nowhere else everything we have achieved in our business is because of him. read more

I have had the pleasure of working with Mr Greenbaum on a few occasions. I had a few clients that we had contractural disputes with that involved different interpretations of the same contract. After spending a long time trying to get resolution myself with our clients, I decide that I needed to get a professional that specializes in business contracts. I explained to Mr. Greenbaum the nature of our situation and that while we needed help on collecting of past due balances owed to us in the tens of thousand of dollars, we also needed to ensure that our client understood the contractual agreement and continued to be our client. I provided Mr. Greenbaum the details, emails, and conversations between myself and the CFO and president if our client. He reviewed it in only a few days, pulled some case law that helped our argument, and reached back out to me. We went over everything as well as Mr. Greenbaums strategy to collect in the payments as well as working to leave our client fully understanding that they were wrong in their interpretation of the contracts. He was able to get our payments and after two conference calls he left our client happy. We received our monies and we continue to get business from our client on a daily basis. I was highly impressed as it was a difficult challenge to get paid and for us to retain our client. Mr. Greenbaum made it happen and we are highly satisfied as we thought that we would loose our client forever. The fees we paid Mr. Greenbaum for,his services were some of the best monies we have ever spent for an attorney. I highly recommend him. If you reach out to him you will see his detail oriented methods and feel at ease that you called the right person to handle your contractual disputes. Regards, Michael D read more
