Greg is an amazing help to my family, he provided so much information and facts to my case. Having someone who you can tell actually cares and pays attention is such a great feeling. I would recommend him time and time again! He is very responsive even on days that his office was closed. Very impressed!

Greg was an amazing attorney. From the first all the way through until my cases’ resolution Greg was responsive, explained everything clearly, listened to any concerns or suggestions I had. Additionally as I’ve had some things come up in the year after the final resolution, Greg has been quick to respond to answer questions and speak on my behalf to my employer.

Mr. Sheldon was hired to represent my son. My son is not the most agreeable person -- but I love him. So working with someone like my son, was a true uphill battle. Therefore, I recommend Mr. Sheldon highly. In my son's case, Mr. Sheldon pulled out all the stops. The motions he produced were phenomenal. He was on point. Regrettably, we didn't get a win in this particular case but he worked out an amicable plan. That's why I still think he's "THE MAN".

I contacted Mr. Sheldon for my boyfriend. He worked with me to understand everything that was happening with the case. He answered my early morning texts and weekend texts when I had questions pop up. He did a fantastic job getting time sufficiently down on the case and I'm extremely happy I hired him.

Our son was facing serious criminal charges, and Greg was our court appointed lawyer. Greg is very well known, and respected in Chesterfield Juvenile Courts. He was able to help us get the charges dismissed. COVID slowed down the process for us, but Greg was confidant and treated our 15 year old with respect and was very direct with him. I would have liked some more explanation and "what to expect" in the beginning as we were very scared and had NO experience with the court system before this. Overall, Greg was very consistent, answered ALLLLLLLL the questions we had, and we were glad to have him on our team during this difficult time.

Difficult to get in touch with, didn't really go over any of the evidence with me. Came to Court late and unprepared.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
