Mr. Green handles all manner of family law and divorce cases and all legal issues that may arise in connection with such matters. Mr. Green makes sure that his client's legal position is known, heard by the opposing party and considered by the Court. While he strives for amicable results and settlement, he is always prepared to fight for his client if the opposing side is unreasonable. Often times, this position leads to the retreat of his adversary and toward the amicable results desired in the first place.
Mr. Green was voted by his peers as a New Jersey " Super Lawyer" in 2006, see below for more information on this designation. It was also noted in a complex litigation matter that Mr. Green and his co-counsel did "superior work" and were also "well qualified, experienced, collegial, and vigorous" in their representation.

Only 5 Percent of All New Jersey Attorneys in More than 60 Areas of Practice Are Named New Jersey Super Lawyers.
Michael S. Green, Esq. received the honor of being named a "New Jersey Super Lawyer" Rising Star in 2006 the second year that the coveted distinction was awarded in New Jersey. Mr. Green was named one of the Top Young Lawyers in New Jersey. Only 2.5% of New Jersey Attorneys were selected as Rising Stars and received the award in this category for that year.
The publishers of Law & Politics and New Jersey Monthly mail more than 35,000 ballots each year to attorneys across New Jersey who have been licensed for five years or more. Law & Politics asked the attorneys to vote for the best lawyers they had personally observed in action. The intent was to discourage lawyers from voting for others based purely on reputation. Each lawyer was given a score based on the number and type of votes received. Votes received from lawyers in other firms were awarded significantly more points than votes received from lawyers in the same firm.

Excellent! I would highly recommend Mr. Green. He always provided excellent counsel and was extremely responsive. I was able to reach him on weekends and in the evenings which was extremely important to me as a single working parent.
