Greg has been licensed to practice law in North Carolina
since 1982. He graduated from the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Law with honors,
where he received the Order of the Coif and served on
the North Carolina Law Review. Greg also attended undergraduate
school at UNC, obtaining his Bachelor of Arts degree
in English literature in 1979. He was inducted into
Phi Beta Kappa in 1978.
In the early 1980s, Greg's practice was initially devoted
to workers compensation claims, specializing in brown lung (byssinosis) cases
before the North Carolina Industrial Commission. Later
in the 1980s, Greg began handling jury trials involving
the victims of automobile accidents, as well as products
liability claims against manufacturers of defective
drugs and products including breast implants and
the dietary supplement L-Tryptophan, leading to a multi-million
dollar settlement of those claims in 1993.
From late 1997 through early 2001, he successfully
litigated a large group of products liability claims
on behalf of residents in North Carolina and many other
states who sustained serious valvular heart disease
and primary pulmonary hypertension after taking American
Home Products's diet drug, fenfluramine ("Fen-Phen").
