Gregory P. Greg Brenny

A solid, experienced attorney for commercial real estate

I engaged Gregory Brenny at Taft to assist with the refinancing of a small commercial property my business owns in Minneapolis. With over three decades of experience and his recognition in real estate and commercial finance law, I was confident in his technical expertise, and that confidence was largely justified. The documentation for the loan was complex, and his knowledge of the nuances in this practice area was evident; he efficiently navigated the lender's requirements. However, my experience was a mixed bag. While the legal work itself was thorough, communication sometimes felt like a secondary priority. There were periods of several days where updates were scarce, and responses to emails weren't as prompt as I'd hoped for a matter with tight deadlines. The final product was professionally done and met our needs, but the process required more proactive follow-up on my part than I anticipated. For straightforward, high-stakes commercial real estate finance work, Mr. Brenny's deep experience is a significant asset, but be prepared to manage the client-attorney communication flow actively.
