Our Team:


Ted A. Greene, Esq. – Owner/Founder

Ted Greene, the founder of The Law Offices Ted A. Greene, Inc., has years of experience in real estate brokerage, title insurance, and real estate and bankruptcy law. Mr. Greene began his career in the United States Air Force and then went on to successfully own and operate several large Sacramento businesses before entering law school and becoming a licensed attorney in California.  Shortly afterwards, Ted obtained his broker’s license to further expand his available services to real estate clients, both commercial and residential. To this end, Mr. Greene is a broker-lawyer, for brokers.   Ted has an undergraduate degree in accounting and specializes in sensitive cases involving difficult financials. Mr. Greene enjoys spending time with his family. He enjoys golf and still plays soccer in his local “over 50 league.”


Also on our team of advisors is a real estate attorney with 35 years of transactional commercial real estate experience. He is well versed in the area of law as it relates to lender and borrower rights, and is also highly regarded in the Sacramento commercial real estate community. He provides an added level of analysis for most of our more complex workout assignments. 


Mark A. Bruno, Division Manager

Mark Bruno’s focus has been in commercial and residential finance since the beginning of his career with Wells Fargo Bank. At Wells Fargo, Mark quickly established himself as a leading producer and developed a majority of his business through partnered relationships with mortgage firms across the Western Region.  In early 2001, Mark left Wells Fargo to establish a mortgage brokerage company in Roseville, California that quickly became one of Sacramento’s largest mortgage companies by loan volume, and with over 60 loan officers.   In late 2007, Mark ventured into commercial property finance on a full time basis as his network of clients began to push more commercial business his direction.  In late 2008, Mark decided to join forces with The Law Offices of Ted A. Greene where he established a Loan Workout division that focused on renegotiating debt for the many troubled properties in Northern California, and especially the hard-hit Sacramento region.  Mark’s daily role is to manage the group and filter the high volume of commercial property owners who request our services. He also attends distressed asset trade events and keeps his thumb on the pulse of ever-evolving workout strategies, which ultimately raises the relevancy and professionalism of our end workout proposal product. 

Mr. Bruno has a Bachelor of Science from California State University, Sacramento in Business Finance with a minor in Economics. He enjoys riding his dirt bike and taking his boat out on Folsom Lake and the Sacramento River.  


DON’T hire a fly-by-night residential loan modification company that claims to understand the complexities of commercial loan workouts.
