Zero communication

I was referred to him by a family friend. Paid up front. Horrible communication from both him and staff. Always said they’d call back and never did. Hard to get any answers out of anyone. No one tried to help with anything. Such a waste of money.

Child Custody Case

Craig agreed to take on our child custody case. From the very beginning he showed interest in truly helping us. He wanted the best outcome for my children. Craig worked diligently at documenting all of the specifics to ensure he was fully informed in order to better represent us. He adjusted his sche...dule on multiple occasions to meet us after hours, to accommodate our work schedules. Craig was always extremely responsive to messages. This case took approximately 18 months, and his work was detailed from day one, all the way to the end. He was honest, professional, and truly exhausted all of his efforts to ensuring we got the outcome we’d hoped for. Craig never rushed my conversations or made me feel that he was too busy for me or my case. I highly recommend Craig in providing legal assistance for any case you may need him for.

Absolutely Worthless

Easier to pull wisdom teeth out of a meeting let than to get open communication from Mr Grummel . All talk , super big & slick Willie extraordinare on court date day but does nothing for you on the days in between court dates . His main source of any kind of defense strategy is & I quote " let'...s just keep doing CONTINUANCE'S, until the state offer's you a good plea deal " No consideration of guilty or not guilty Mr Grummel just wanted to drag the case out longer & longer just to pad his wallet with more billable hours . A complete waste of time and effort better off with any public defender any other lawyer

Terrible attorney

Used in a divorce, he was never in the office, never returned phone calls, was supposed to have paperwork ready in two weeks and it has been 2 months and still no paperwork! Then I talked to a friend that had the same issues with him. I will never use him again!
