This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

I hope you never need an employment attorney but if you do...

I highly recommend Richard T. Granowsky. It was a bewildering experience to find myself in need of an employment attorney. I was in shock, scared, unsure of my options and at a loss as to what to do when I met Richard. I found him to be very personable and genuinely interested in helping me. He is k...nowledgeable and available, returning calls and emails quickly. He presented me with options and guided my decision making to a very favorable outcome. I was struck by his sincere concern for me and my situation. I have since recommended Richard to a friend who also had a favorable outcome. I give Richard T. Granowsky my highest recommendation without any reservation. Nancy

Excellent in multiple areas

Richard has represented me in more than one area ( an employment contract and a civil lawsuit ). I have found his advice spot on, his attitude excellent, and his response & turn around time 'best in class'. We thought through tactics and responses together - he explains his POV's well and translate...s legal syntax in the terms of the case.

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.
