Hired Greg and could not be more happy with the results! Top notch legal assistance!
Greg and his staff were extremely comforting and helpful throughout my case. I could not ask for a better outcome to a case I was sure was going to have a very negative outcome. Greg's services are worth every penny and I would advise anyone looking for an attorney to start with him.
A few years ago, I suffered a great loss at my business. Through a misunderstanding, I was essentially being burdened by someone else's actions, something that happened twenty years prior that I should have not lawfully been accountable for. And due to that, I had no other option than to move forward with a civil suit against the United States. Everything for my case was time-sensitive, and Gregory accomplished everything within the allotted amount of time. He was able to settle my case out of court, in my favor, and had that not happened and if the lawsuit had to be drug out for a year or longer, I would've most likely lost my business. I wouldn't have trusted something as serious as my business and my livelihood with any other attorney. He was always prompt and communicative with me, and even through such a stressful time I was comfortable knowing that I had given the responsibility for something so important to the right person. If I ever have any problems again in the future, especially with my business, I would never use another attorney.
We were having more than one issue. Upon entering the office, Greg sat down and really listened to our problems. We were having farm related issues with evicting someone from the property that we purchased and Greg handled it quickly. We had tried on numerous occasions to handle it on our own. Greg got the job done. We also currently have a problem with property damaged from a different person and we are trusting Greg to handle that in the same professional way that we handled our first issue. His attention to our case has led us to have confidence in him. When we call with questions, he returns our calls quickly. We will continue to use Greg Swank as our attorney and we highly recommend this law firm.
My fiance and I were looking for an attorney in the Kittaning (Armstrong county) area. The police there apprehended her and filed charges that were, to say the least, questionable. We contacted Greg and briefly explained the situation. We set up an appointment to meet in person 3 days after the initial phone consultation. We immediately felt comfortable with Greg and his staff. He agreed to take on our case and we agreed to hire him. He kept us up to speed on what to expect and really took the time to listen to everything we had to share( even non-case related issues). He got us very favorable results at the preliminary hearing. What we thought were going to be some very difficult charges and penalties turned into a slap on the wrist. We trust Greg and are very lucky to have found him. Thank you!
I was charged with a very serious crime by the State police. Greg took the case to trial in front of a jury and blew apart the evidence the prosecutors used to try to convict me. After two days of trial the jury came in with a not guilty verdict. I was facing several years in prison and I walked out of the courthouse free. Greg's not the least expensive, but if your in trouble and need to get out, I would recommend him very much.
He is very good at what he does. He takes the time to explain specifically what will or won't happen. He has made my divorce easy. He has been helping me for years with custody and is well aware of everything regarding custody. He has had to deal with a very hostile situation and hasn't given up on what is best for my son. I have had him represent me for years and would recommend him to anyone dealing with divorce or custody. He speaks in legal terms and then puts things into a normal perspective.
Greg is a good attorney in court, knows the laws and very good speaker. Greg and his staff are not all that great at getting back to you when needed. They string you along and keep you calling. Setting things aside seem to be a normal thing for them to do. even after they have your money in their hands. Very unlikely to get phone calls back from them with in three days or even week. We paid them for a filing fee and the divorce was not filed even today and this was almost two weeks ago. My Spouse has called and the check was still laying on the staffs desk. a week later now i called and they still have yet to put check through our bank. You give someone money there should not be a waiting period to get your case looked at or done. Maybe hiring someone else to handle your case load will help them. Again Greg is a great Attorney and great in court speaking. just very disorganized as far as where his clients stand. Spending a lot of money and still set on back burner!
Greg represented my husband (prior to us being married) in a debt related matter. He gave my husband extremely bad advice that cost my husband over $60,000 plus a $1000 legal bill. I could have handled this matter myself with no legal training and saved about $50,000 plus the legal fee. Very poor legal representation to make a buck. Shame on you Greg!
