About Randall
Biography
Mr Grantham has appeared in State Courts from Miami to Jacksonville, but currently limits his geographic area of practice to Hillsborough and Pasco Counties, usually. He has represented citizens accused of nearly every crime imaginable from Murder and Rape to the now more often DUI and Drug offense cases. Some of the cases handled by Randall have made local and National news and all cases are handled with strict confidentiality and discretion. He is admitted to practice law in both the State court area and the Middle District of Florida Federal Court In addition to the practice of law, Mr Grantham is also a regular commentary writer in the various newspapers published in the area by Community News Publications, such as The Laker, Community News, The Beacon and The Carrollwood News. He has been recognized statewide with an award from the Florida Press Association for his work. He began his editorial writing in 1998 with a local independent publication named “ In The Loop”, and continued to write for that publication for a short time after they were purchased in 2001 by the Media General Group, which also owns the Tampa Tribune. When he’s not defending citizens accused of crimes or writing commentary for the paper, Mr. Grantham is an amateur photographer who has won several awards for his photographs in local competitions.
