      My divorce got ugly and I did some things that I wasn't proud of...but Mr. John E. Griswold helped me through it. He was a trusted attorney and his advice helped me through the worst of it.

      Mr. Griswold is not only a good lawyer but a nice person. In my speeding case he reviewed all the information and actually met me on the road where I got the ticket. He did not get the case dismissed but he got it reduced. He did a good job.

      He has been my company lawyer for over thirty years. No matter what the legal problem, I could always count on him to do his very best. Whether it was an employee issue or a contract problem he was always there and I could count on him.

      I was so concerned about my estate. This is my second marriage and I have three grown children. My husband also has two children. I was a difficult situation. Mr. Griswold explained how we could both do wills and leave property to each other and also leave property to our respective children. It was a great relief to both my husband and I and our children. He is both a good lawyer and an very nice person.

      FYI...He does not speak Chinese. This lawyer was advertised online as speaking Mandarin Chinese which I needed for my grandmother's will..but he does not. He was very helpful, though. He was able to recommend another attorney in the area for me.

      John E. Griswold, know as "Ted," is a prince of a fellow, who is generous in sharing his practice wisdom with area attorneys, and a kind and generous man, to boot. I highly recommend him.
