GREENE-GRETZINGER LAW OFFICE, LLC
  Sharon Greene-Gretzinger, Attorney At Law  
  Attorney's Bio  
     
   
     
  Sharon is a North Carolina native.  She graduated from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law (San Francisco, CA) in 1991 with the goal of practicing Indian Law.  In pursuit of that goal, she accepted a staff attorney position with the then newly-resurrected Indian Law Office of Wisconsin Judicare, situated in Wausau, Wisconsin.   After working for more than a year with individual tribal members and tribal governments from the eleven federally recognized Tribes in Wisconsin, she was hired by the Stockbridge-Munsee Band of Mohicans as Tribal Attorney.  Sharon resigned from her position in June of 2007, after fifteen years as Tribal Attorney and Director of the Tribe's Legal Department.  In the fall of 2007, she opened her own practice in Shawano, WI, where she plans to continue using her Indian Law expertise as she develops her general practice with a focus in estate planning.

Sharon is a member of the Wisconsin State Bar and has been admitted to practice in the United States District Court for both the Eastern and Western Districts of Wisconsin.  She is also admitted to practice in the Stockbridge-Munsee Tribal Court, the Menominee Nation Tribal Court and the Tribal Court of the Lac Du Flambeau Chippewa.

In addition to her law degree, Sharon holds a B.A. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and an M.A. from Stanford University (Palo Alto, CA).  After graduation from Chapel Hill, she spent a year teaching English as a Second Language at the Centro Colombo Americano, in Medellin, Colombia.  She returned to Colombia a few years later, after obtaining her M.A. in Latin American Studies from Stanford.  This time, she conducted research in rural areas outside of Bogota, pursuant to a research grant she obtained from Stanford University.  Sharon currently resides in Leopolis, WI with her husband Roy, her two daughters, Hannah Maie and Delaney Rose, and several pets, including their loyal dog, Bogart.
