Client Review
Dorothy handled my divorce and a legal name change. She made me feel very comfortable throughout the process, explaining everything to me so thatI knew what was happening at each stage. She was always accessible and is very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her.
Dorothy Rebecca Groza's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have had the opportunity to personally witness Dorothy work on two separate issues, one involving real estate and one involving business formation. Dorothy is an attorney I would recommend to friends and family. She is extremely knowledgeable but is able to give information in a manner easy for anyone to understand. This is a rare combination and is part of the reason that both clients I am familiar with were highly satisfied. I offer my highest recommendation to anyone looking for an attorney in any of her fields of practice."
"Ms. Groza is a young and energetic attorney who clearly takes great pride in her work and has earned the respect of her clients and as an attorney in the community. I endorse this attorney."
"As a corporate lawyer I often work with real estate attorneys in connection with my deals, and I can say that Dorothy is one of the best I've worked with. She is incredibly smart and professional, but also approaches matters from a very practical, big picture perspective, which is an invaluable skill in an attorney. I endorse and recommend her strongly."
"Dorothy is a dedicated and diligent advocate that often delivers positive results for her clients. She has the ability to successfully tackle any problem presented to her, both promptly and with little or no oversight. These skills span across multiple legal practice areas. I endorse Dorothy."
"I endorse this lawyer. Very ethical, caring and hard working!"
