Paul Gregory Croushore

I had the privilege of working with Paul Croushore on a recent legal matter, and I cannot express enough how impressed I am with his expertise and strategic approach. Paul's brilliant legal strategy was pivotal in getting our case dismissed, leading to a successful outcome in the U.S. District Court ...for the Southern District of Ohio. Paul represented us in a complex copyright infringement case brought against us by Growella, Inc., a mortgage company based in Cincinnati, Ohio. Growella, represented by John Bennett from Frost Brown Todd, alleged that we, Phillip Ganz and other defendants, had infringed on their copyrighted content related to the home buying and mortgage process. Despite the plaintiff's strong representation, Paul immediately recognized the critical issue of personal jurisdiction and strategically focused on this point. Paul filed a Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Personal Jurisdiction, meticulously arguing that Growella's claims did not meet the required legal standards to establish jurisdiction in Ohio. His arguments were clear, compelling, and backed by a deep understanding of the relevant legal principles. He expertly navigated the complexities of both the Zippo test and the Effects test, demonstrating that Growella had failed to show that our actions were purposefully directed at Ohio residents or that our website targeted Ohio more than any other state【6†source】. Judge Matthew W. McFarland agreed with us in every respect, dismissing the lawsuit by Growella. Paul argued that, based on case law, transfer or dismissal was the appropriate course of action. While he acknowledged that transfer could be considered if deemed appropriate, he did not request it. Moreover, Bennett opposed the transfer, so the judge dismissed the case outright. This decision was a complete victory, as the judge agreed with Paul on every facet of the argument. Thanks to Paul's efforts, Growella, Inc.'s complaint was dismissed without prejudice, and the case was terminated from the court's docket【5†source】【6†source】. Attached is a copy of the judge’s decision. This victory over Growella, Inc. and their counsel, John Bennett of Frost Brown Todd, is a direct result of Paul's legal acumen, thorough preparation, and strategic foresight. His ability to anticipate the opposition's arguments and counter them effectively was invaluable. Throughout the process, Paul kept us informed and confident in our legal standing. I highly recommend Paul Croushore, JD, LLM, to anyone in need of exceptional legal representation. His dedication, expertise, and strategic brilliance are truly unmatched.

My family had discussed the very thing he added to my initial question without knowing we even had that discussion. It was timely, effective and greatly appreciated because it was the part we were still questioning about the same concerns that encouraged us to reach out for legal advice in the first ...place. Wonderful! Thank you again!

We hired Paul Croushore a year ago to represent us in a civil matter regarding a real estate contract. Paul has proven himself to be a fighter in the courtroom. He knows the law like the back of his hand. He is not afraid to stand up to co counsel, prosecutors or judges that fail to do their job ethi...cally. He avoids the messy political drama that commonly affect an attorney's ability to work hard for their own client. Paul uses brilliant legal strategies to protect his clients during depositions and litigation. Paul takes the time to listen to our concerns and offers us choices when it comes to settling, litigating or appealing. We have been so impressed with Paul's skill set that we have hired him to represent us in a criminal case involving a misdemeanor as well as a civil case against a former employer for wrongful termination and defamation. Paul is experienced in all facets of the law and works tirelessly for his clients. Paul calls/ emails us back promptly and spends as much time as we need answering questions about our case. He is meticulous when it comes to record keeping and billing which was very important to us.
