GET TO KNOW JAKE
Jake Greenberg is a commercial litigation attorney who handles all types of business disputes, with an emphasis on real estate litigation, joint venture partnership disputes, and loan-servicing matters involving commercial mortgage backed securities (CMBS). His expansive practice includes representation of financial institutions, commercial lenders, mortgage companies, special servicers, sponsors, developers, and commercial landlords and tenants, on matters spanning complex commercial foreclosures, lender liability, receiverships, loan workouts, breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, and CMBS regulatory compliance matters.
 
Jake’s unique approach to litigation is rooted in his training as a criminal defense lawyer, where he learned that it’s better to solve the client’s problem by achieving the best outcome possible before having others (i.e. judge or jury) decide. Jake’s goal is to resolve cases quickly, efficiently, and cost-effectively, while always being ready to litigate.
