Scamm

I went to Punam Patel Grewal seeking help for my family case. The first 15 minutes were awesome because it was free and she tells you what you want to hear. She is like waiteress and I need to do my part which I did. I was excited I could get good representation. I gave her my retainer money. My hear...ing got postponed to a later date and never heard from them again. She told the court it was a internal error. Once the hearing was close they started calling me. Using up all my funds. The paralegal was the most rude careless person. They kept all my money. What did they do absolutely nothing. Then they asked me for 10k more. For her to represent me. No thank you. I am so upset just a waisted my money time. On what? Nothing. I hate them more than what I hate the system which failed me.

Education client

Ms. Grewal is an excellent attorney! She's detail oriented and tenacious! I'd recommend her to anyone that has a child with a disability. Unlike most lawyers out there, she rolls up her sleeves and gets into the case and tears it apart - explaining everything she's doing from step one! She will t...ell you exactly what she expects from you; tells you what NOT to do, and is comforting in a sort of way not too many attorneys are. I'd recommend her in a heart beast. I put all my trust in her and she came through! I'm writing this review because I can finally sleep at night knowing that my child is safe and in the right school with the right services!!

Special Education Law

Punam Patel Grewal is ready to go to bat for our kids with special needs, and that can't be said for all of the Special Education attorneys out there. She approaches the school districts with finesse, yet she will get in there and fight when it is needed. Punam is smart and uses those smarts to ou...r advantage. I do wish there were more of her to go around, she has passion for our kids and for the law, but it can sometimes be difficult to get together as she is spread very thin. So many issues in special education and so few attorneys that actually care, this is one with heart!
