He was a teaching assistant in legal writing and appellate advocacy, a volunteer tutor, and a Book Award Recipient for legal research. Additionally, Mr. Greene was forum editor of the Florida Law Review and authored The Right to “Cure” a Child’s Homosexuality?: A Constitutional Analysis of State Laws Banning Sexual Orientation Change Efforts on Minor, published by the Florida Law Review Forum in 2016.

As a legal intern at the American Civil Liberties Union, a non-profit organization, Mr. Greene was able to demonstrate his work by preparing motions, deposition outlines, and legal memoranda in a broad range of cases.

During his time as an associate at the firm, Mr. Greene quickly earned a reputation as a fierce advocate for his clients. His legal reasoning skills combined with his ability to recall the smallest of details allow his trial acumen to match those of attorneys who have practiced for decades longer.
