Attorney
Maya Greenberg was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where she developed the strong work ethic, intellectual curiosity, and competitive spirit that would eventually shape her career in the legal profession. An accomplished scholar and passionate advocate, Maya has built her legal foundation on three guiding principles: academic excellence, rigorous courtroom preparation, and a steadfast commitment to protecting the rights of others.
Following high school, Maya attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison on an academic scholarship, where she earned Bachelor of Arts degrees in both Legal Studies and History. Her exceptional academic performance earned her induction into Phi Beta Kappa, one of the nation’s oldest and most prestigious academic honor societies. Her undergraduate studies strengthened her understanding of the American legal system, the importance of individual liberties, and the critical role attorneys play in ensuring that justice is accessible to everyone.
After graduating from Wisconsin, Maya attended Loyola University Chicago School of Law, where she earned her Juris Doctorate (Law Degree). While at Loyola, she continued to distinguish herself academically, earning recognition on the Dean’s List, and was selected to participate in the prestigious Corboy Fellows Mock Trial Program. Through intensive courtroom training, competitive trial simulations, and rigorous advocacy exercises, Maya developed the skills necessary to analyze complex evidence, construct persuasive legal arguments, and advocate confidently in adversarial proceedings.
Maya’s passion for protecting individual rights was further strengthened through her work with the Wisconsin Public Defender’s Office in Racine County. There, she worked directly with individuals facing criminal prosecution, conducted client interviews at the county jail, assisted attorneys with legal research, and participated in trial preparation. This experience provided Maya with firsthand exposure to the criminal justice system and reinforced her belief that every individual accused of a crime deserves a vigorous defense, the presumption of innocence, and the full protection of the law.
Maya then expanded her criminal defense experience through her work with the Illinois Innocence Project, an organization dedicated to investigating claims of wrongful conviction and pursuing justice for individuals who may have been convicted of crimes they did not commit. While attending Loyola, Maya also served as a student clinician with the Loyola Community Law Clinic, where she advocated for the interests of children involved in contested custody proceedings. Serving as a Guardian ad Litem, Maya regularly appeared in court, conducted interviews and investigations, and prepared and presented reports to judges. This meaningful courtroom experience sharpened her ability to evaluate competing accounts, communicate effectively with judges, and advocate for individuals whose interests require careful and determined representation.
Today, at the Law Offices of Roderick C. White, Maya draws upon her academic achievements, courtroom training, and experience protecting individual rights to advocate for clients facing serious legal challenges. Her practice focuses on criminal defense, accident/injury claims, and family law matters, where she combines careful legal analysis, thorough preparation, and a determined approach to pursuing favorable outcomes for the people she represents.
Maya understands that the legal system can be intimidating, confusing, and deeply personal. She believes that effective advocacy begins with listening carefully to clients, understanding their circumstances, investigating the facts, and developing a thoughtful legal strategy tailored to their needs. For Maya, practicing law is more than a profession. It is an opportunity to stand beside individuals during some of the most consequential moments of their lives and ensure that their rights, dignity, and voices are protected. She approaches every case with the conviction that every client deserves an attorney who is intellectually prepared, thoroughly committed, and willing to stand up for what is right.
Because Kyle is licensed to practice law by the Supreme Courts of Kansas and Missouri, he is authorized to practice in the state courts of both states.
Outside the practice of law, Maya enjoys playing several musical instruments, singing, and following her favorite sports teams. A proud Wisconsin native, she remains a loyal supporter of the Milwaukee Brewers and Wisconsin Badgers, while also enthusiastically cheering for the Minnesota Vikings.
