Mediator

John is a really good listener. He helped me resolve an issue by empathetically listening, summarizing what I said and coming up with a number of satisfying solutions to the problem.

Posted by William | May 23, 2016 | Hired Attorney

Mr. William Grove

Took on my former employer, large corporation in consumer goods business, and succeeded in gaining six figure wages owed to me which were being denied.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
