Martha “Meg” A. Greene, Esq.

Attorney, InterActive Legal Advisor Emeritus

2024 Emeritus:

InterActive Legal extends our heartfelt congratulations to Martha “Meg” Greene, on her transitioning role at Brann & Isaacson. While we’ll miss having Martha around (19 years!), we’re thrilled for her as she embarks on this new chapter.

While Martha is not retiring, she will be shifting most of her responsibilities to Meghan Myers. Meghan, who has been a co-advisor in Maine with Martha, is now a Partner at Brann & Isaacson.

Martha (“Meg”) practices estate planning, charitable giving and estate and trust administration. Her representation includes the preparation of wills and trusts and the related specialties of planning for disabled/incapacitated family members, asset protection, life insurance, retirement and family real estate planning. She also specializes in litigation in these areas. Meg has developed an expertise in business succession planning, including the use of limited liability companies, buy–sell agreements and ESOPs to accomplish client objectives.

Meg is a recognized specialist in charitable giving and non–profit governance.  She assists clients in implementing significant charitable giving plans, including the formation and operation of private family foundations, public charities and the creative use of donor advised funds. Because she served as the Managing Director of the John T. Gorman Foundation for 10 years before the Foundation hired full time staff, she has a deep operational understanding of the philanthropic and non–profit sectors.
