(Bobby) Greenberg is Senior Counsel at Meirowitz & Wasserberg, LLP, a distinguished trial attorney with more than 50 years of experience in criminal defense and plaintiffs' personal injury practice.

He has earned Certification as a Trial Attorney from the New Jersey Supreme Court Board in both Civil and Criminal Law, a distinction held by relatively few attorneys in the state.
