Ronald A. Grim

I hired Ronald Grimm to represent me in a divorce case. This turned out to be a horrible decision on my part. From the onset, I had informed Ronald Grimm of things that could be detrimental to my case to which his response was it doesn’t matter. Michigan is a no-fault state. I initially breathed... a sigh of relief hearing this information. As things progressed, I felt a bit uneasy about the way things were being handled. There was a hearing scheduled for which I was to email him certain documents. After emailing them to him, I called him to confirm that he received them to which he replied yes. The very next day, he showed up at court without the documents claiming they didn’t all come through however, he had just told me the day before he had received them. I was given a set of interrogatories to complete by the opposing attorney. There were some questions I felt uncomfortable with answering. He instructed me not to answer the questions. I found out later through another attorney that the best way to handle this was for him to object to the questions. So naturally, at the advice of my counsel, I did not answer the questions I was uncomfortable with. He never prepared a set of interrogatories for the plaintiff to complete. Till this day I don’t know why he didn’t. Fast forward to the day of mediation. He was given the complaint from opposing attorney. After reading it, he stated he can no longer represent me because I didn’t tell him certain facts about the case. Those things he claimed I didn’t tell him were the first things out of my mouth at our initial meeting. He then states I perjured myself with some of my answers to which I replied, no. I didn’t answer the questions because you told me not to. I guess I should have noticed the red flags from the beginning because this guy doesn’t even have an office where he meets his clients. He meets his clients at McDonalds or Burger King and discusses the case in the open for all to hear. He’ll take your money and tell you what you want to hear in the beginning, but in my case, he did a horrible job of representing me and then bailed on me. I recommend, based on my experience with this attorney that you DO NOT HIRE HIM TO REPRESENT YOU!
