Practicing Law In California With
Integrity, Proficiency And Compassion

An Experienced Lawyer Recognized For His Skills And Success

For 40 years, I have been a tireless advocate for my clients and my profession. My commitment to ethics and serving the needs of my clients led to my selection to the California Super Lawyers list and earned me the peer review rating of Distinguished through Martindale-Hubbell*. Over the years, I have taken on a number of high-profile positions, including General Legal Counsel, American Association of Commercial Finance Brokers (AACFB) and Legal Editor and Advisory Board Member for Leasing News.

I lecture and write on the subjects of leasing law, bankruptcy, litigation and collection for publications including AACFB’s Commercial Break, Leasing News (Ten Most Read Articles 10 times), Dealmaker (National Association of Commercial Lease Broker’s magazine), deBanked, and SFNet. I am also a contributing writer on the topic of bankruptcy in Miller & Starr, California Real Estate 2d (Bancroft Whitney).

A Head-On Approach To Resolving Legal Issues

When confronted with a problem, I believe there is no reason to delay action or withhold the truth. Being proactive and transparent allows you to bypass a lot of unnecessary hedging and equivocation, saving everyone time and money. Putting off meeting a lawyer about a legal problem is just like putting off a trip to the doctor about a medical problem; the longer you wait, the worse the problem becomes and the more time and money it takes to deal with it. I hope you don’t need a lawyer (or a doctor for that matter), but if you do, my advice is to stop procrastinating so that minor disputes don’t turn into major litigation.

Attorney

What My Clients Are Saying

I have known Ken Greene for over 30 years as a friend, as an attorney for both American Leasing and Leasing News, where he was involved in the formation of Leasing News and represented it (pro bono) in the early days. I have enjoyed many leasing conferences where he was a guest speaker, as well as nights in Sausalito, California, as he played piano at “No Name Bar” as well had a band, too. He is a man of many talents.

Ken continues his involvement in Leasing News as well as the representation of equipment finance companies, including lessors and brokers, in litigation, bankruptcy and transactions. He also represents small businesses and individuals in litigation, bankruptcy, transactions, contract, and corporate matters, as well as entities and individuals in the entertainment industry.
