This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great business and matrimonial lawyer

Mr. Grossman has been my business lawyer for over 15 years and also my matrimonial lawyer. He handled my divorce and also constructed a pre-nuptials agreement. He is honest, intelligent and a very effective communicator and negotiator. He is king, caring and very empathetic. If you want a hard wor...king lawyer that answers all your calls and questions and works endlessly to help you. He’s the man!

Doesn't back down

Robert Grossman and his team were excellent in helping me with my case. They constantly kept me informed and were aggressive in making sure my needs were met and that I received a settlement that I was satisfied with. I highly recommend them.

HIGHLY Recommended

Describing Robert Scott Grossman of Winter & Grossman, PLLC as professional, flawless and diligent is an understatement. His work representing us was impeccable and genuine. We highly recommend him if you're looking for distinguished representation.

In Your Corner

Robert Grossman is the attorney you want for all divorce-related legal issues, especially at the start of the process when relations between both sides can be very combative. Divorce often begins and continues to be a battle and Robert will come out swinging with you as your strong and solid gener...al, giving you the strategy and confidence to win. He helped draft a separation agreement for me that was extremely fair and equitable and has already stood the test of time despite the considerable resources of the other side. His knowledge of the law is excellent and he knows almost instinctively which details to press to find weaknesses in your opponent. For instance, though at times he was brusque but correct in not tolerating some of my digressions, at our first meeting at the oppositions lawyers offices, (not our home turf and we were outnumbered), he singlehandedly caught the other side by surprise, got us what we wanted, and left on good terms with everyone. Robert Grossman is not for the fainthearted. He does not hesitate to tell you everything as it is-often straight and raw. But his overall approach will keep you safe, strong, and get you what you need and want. He will fight tenaciously for you. Who do you want in your corner?-Robert Grossman.

  • 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.
