Ross Grisham is an excellent attorney who knows the law. I have known Ross for several years and worked with him on several occasions while I was a prosecutor and he as the defense attorney. He zealously advocates for his clients and obtains great results on their cases. I highly endorse Ross Grisham and his firm.
Ashley Carlile, Divorce and separation Attorney
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
Ross Grisham is well known in Georgia as one of the top criminal defense attorneys. I had the privilege of working with him as a paralegal before I attended law school myself. He taught me the foundation of what it means to be a a caring, ethical, and zealous attorney for my clients. He truly cares for his clients best interest. I admire his work ethic and his tireless effort to help his clients as they face criminal charges. I would recommend him and his firm to anyone facing criminal charges.
