Stuart Grozbean is phenomenal!

Stuart Grozbean is phenomenal! I highly recommend Stu and I would never go to any other lawyer! I hired him back in 2005 for my Divorce and Child Custody. From time to time my ex-husband rears his head and the first person I call is Stu! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional and puts... you as ease. I have never had any worries that the job would not be done 150%! His staff is fantastic as well!!!

Top notch attorney

I hired Mr. Grozbean to represent me in a very complicated contract matter. He immediately grasped the issues and devised a strategy that proved to be successful. He took on the burdens of the case and relieved me of concerns about the outcome. I was able to sleep better knowing that he was repres...enting me. I appreciate his intellect, his hands on approach, his courtesy, and his professionalism. He is the consummate lawyer. I would use him again and recommend him to others without hesitation.

A Super Lawyer When You Need One!

As I am sure you can imagine, the process of divorce is a confusing, life-altering, and extremely painful experience - especially when children are involved (I have two beautiful twin girls). When the dark clouds of divorce descended upon me, I was devastated and had to absorb not only the painful l...oss of my wife taking our children away, and the end of our marriage, but also of her callous and mean-spirited attorney, who had no interest in settling the case - which would have been best for all involved (especially our children) considering that I was with my wife for over 20 years. Having nowhere to turn, and with limited resources, I was fortunate to walk into the offices of Stu Grozbean, who informed me in great detail as to the divorce process, and what I needed to do to preserve my rights in remaining an integral part of my daughters' lives. Needless to say, Stu was brilliant not only in trying to honor my wishes to settle, but also in meticulously preparing for trial when my wife's lawyer compelled her not to do so. Stu was a master in the courtroom, and preserved my ability to remain an integral part of my daughters' lives - even doing so in a cost-effective manner. If the clouds of divorce ever descend upon you (and I pray that they do not), you must seek out Stu Grozbean. Simply put, and I take these reviews seriously, Stu is the best!!!

Great, No Nonsense, Legal Representation!

Mr. Grozbean is an extremely knowledgeable, personable, no nonsense lawyer. (He always introduces himself as Stu, by the way) He kept me involved in all decisions and, at all junctions, provided no nonsense explanations for my legal options. When working with Mr. Grozbean, you always feel that he ...cares not only about doing a good job but also about you. He follows up with you personally to ensure that everything was taken care of and that you're OK. I always leave a discussion with Mr. Grozbean confident that I've received the best advice possible from a profession who really cares about his work and clients. Mr. Grozbean clearly knows his way around the legal system and knows "everyone" as was obvious when we walked through the courthouse and he was greeted by admins, clerks and fellow lawyers! Therefore, I've recommended Mr. Grozbean to many people and, because he is such a professional and knows "everyone," he has even recommended other lawyers when he could not take a case. I recently phoned Mr. Grozbean's office to get a copy of my divorce judgement which was finalized over 6 years ago. Instead of having an assistant send me a copy, Mr. Grozbean personally got on the phone, got the copy for me (in a minute or so) and e-mailed it to me. He also took the time to speak with me about my kids and gave some advice on a couple of legal issues that I had going on at the time. As always, he was personable and supportive and I left the conversation confident that I had received the best support available. So, if you want a great, non nonsense lawyer who knows his way around the legal system and will provide you the best, informed, representation possible, you must call Stuart Grozbean.

Excellent Attorney

I retained Stuart Grozbean to work out a child support modification, as I knew that my former spouse would be unwilling to cooperate with me. Mr. Grozbean went far beyond what the original attorneys who handled my divorce provided. The original attorneys I hired (13 years ago) for the original divo...rce proceeding did little more than cash my checks and file paperwork. Mr. Grozbean did much more. He was in constant communication with me about where negotiations stood, he was an excellent legal support system for me when I had questions about the modification process. I never felt that I was bothering him or taking up too much of his time when I contacted him. While my wife and I were feeling stressed over the protracted modification process, Mr. Grozbean continually assured us that we were in good hands with him and his firm. His self-assuredness and extensive knowledge of family law gave us confidence that we were being represented fairly in the modification process. I will absolutely recommend Mr. Grozbean to friends who are unfortunately going through a divorce situation.
