Exceptional real estate litigation expertise and guidance

Burt Bruton provided outstanding counsel during a complex commercial lease dispute for our company. His deep knowledge, honed over 44 years at Greenberg Traurig, was immediately evident. He leveraged his recognized litigation and real estate background to craft a strategy that protected our interests. While his billing rates reflect his top-tier status, communication turnaround could occasionally be quicker. His 2016 'Lawyer of the Year' recognition is well-deserved. We felt in capable hands throughout and achieved a favorable resolution.
