About Trenton

Over 25 Years experience representing clients in financial legal matters, bankruptcy & Injury cases.

I am a native of Baton Rouge and understand the values held by fellow residents and business owners in southern Louisiana. I opened my firm in 1994 on the principle that people have the right to get a fresh start from the heavy burden of debt. Over the past two decades, I have successfully represented thousands of clients in personal bankruptcy cases as well as business related bankruptcy cases, personal injury cases, real estate closings and estate planning. I understand the stress of financial uncertainty, the anxiety of being in an auto accident and the apprehension of trying to plan for the future. Not only do I look forward to assisting you with your legal matter, I have a dedicated and experienced staff of attorneys and paralegals ready and eager to work with you.

Review Trenton Grand

Excellent Legal Firm

Posted by

I could not ask for a better legal office. Everyone including Trenton handled everything in a very professional manor. He knew exactly what he could or could not do and counseled us on every aspect of the case. All request for communication with the firm was prompt, even one on Sunday. I would recommend this law firm to anyone. It was and is one of the best experiences we have had with any law firm over the years and would use them in the future if I needed one.

Jon DeTrinis - Grand Law Firm - Excellent Bankruptcy Attorney

Posted by

At 51 years old Bankruptcy was a very scary thought for me. On my very first meeting with Jon and Trent my mind was put at ease. They both did their best to answer all my questions and I did not feel rushed in any way. At the end of that meeting I still did not understand ALL their was to know about Bankruptcy but I was confident enough with Jon to proceed with filing. I felt that he would have "my back" along the way and would make sure I understood each of the processes. Honestly, the circumstances that prompted me file bankruptcy in the first place did not allow me much time to research attorneys. I really just opened the phone book and Trent Grand was the first number I dialed. I am very glad I did and I have nothing but good to say about Jon and the entire staff at Grand Law Firm. I most certainly had questions and concerns along the way and every time I did, Jon was quick to return my calls and to get my questions answered. Today, I am rebuilding my credit and I am 100% better off and my credit future looks promising. Thank you to Jon DeTrinis and the Staff of Grand Law Firm. I wish you all a Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year. Sincerely, Gena

Trenton Grand and his staff were excellent in assisting me with all the necessary requirements to file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Trent and his team were always very professional, very prompt in getting back to me with questions/concerns, and fully prepared me to go through what I thought would be a very difficult ordeal. It was the opposite. They made this process so much smoother than I anticipated when I first chose to file and their expertise resulted in a successful outcome for me. I highly recommend Trenton Grand as everyone's bankruptcy attorney. His skill and knowledge resulted in my successful outcome. Thank you Trenton!!

Grand Law firm and Detrenis are the best!

Posted by

First let me start by saying that before 2012 we had luckily never needed the services of a bankruptcy or car insurance attorney. We were nervous about hiring anyone because of the way that lawyers are often portrayed in the public eye. Well, the Grand Law Firm is the exception to ANY rule! We first began working with them on our bankruptcy case. Since we really didn't know any lawyers, we found them by looking at websites online. Their site seemed the most family friendly, so we gave them a call. That was the beginning of an unexpected 3 year relationship with some of most caring, professional, knowlegable and honest people we have ever met. From Lauren, a paralegal, to every lawyer in the firm, they kept us informed and up to date on everything, so that we felt comfortable. The best part was that they never made us feel bad for not understanding things. Although I'm an educator, the language of the legal system can be very daunting,. and between Ben Carpenter, Jon De Trinis, and Trent Grand they made us feel like no question was a bad one. We can't say enough about the positive experiences that we have had with this law firm. They never made any false claims, kept us informed and most importantly treated us with respect.
