Have you been charged with a serious criminal offense? Richard Grossman will protect your rights.
For more than 25 years I have vigorously fought for the accused facing federal and state criminal charges. By focusing exclusively on defending people charged with serious crimes I am able to provide clients with knowledgeable and experienced representation.
Over the years I have acquitted clients of murder, rape, armed robbery, gang conspiracy, racketeering, aggravated assault, firearm offenses, drug trafficking, distribution and possession, medicaid fraud, mortgage fraud, theft and property offenses.
Similarly, through investigation and research, I have had cases dismissed by being fully prepared. When going to trial is not in the client's best interest I have achieved creative solutions and in many cases successfully argued for probation.
My goal is to achieve the best possible result for my clients. I recognize that the outcome of the case may have a lasting impact on the client's life.

I have known Richard for 20 years and have had the opportunity to work with him as co counsel on many cases over those years. Richard is an incredibly skilled trial lawyer and is intimately familiar with the law as well as the State and Federal rules of criminal procedure. He is an asset to every joint defense agreement I have ever entered into with him and I would choose him to help in any matter where one of my family members was in need of experienced and more than competent counsel. I endorse him with the highest regard. LDWolfe
