Not recommending Ms Grohs

I spoke with Paula Grohs about taking my divorce case, and the consultation was a trainwreck. No solid advice was given, and no plan was put in place. I chose not to hire Ms. Grohs and wouldn't recommend that you do not

One of the best attorneys in town!

You know, not everything goes your way in a child custody case. Nothing actually went my way during my 3 year custody battle, but then again, I was asking for an out of state move-away. Paula Grohs went above and beyond for me, eventhough my case resulted in a decline of the move. I can honestly say ...that Paula knows what she is doing when it comes to negotiations in the family law court. But you have to go into any case with knowing that it is the judge who makes the final decision no matter how good of lawyering your attorney gives you. I would recommend Paula to any of my friends and colleagues if they are facing a court case regarding custody issues.

Reality Check

These lady's below are out of control! Not everything goes the way you want it! I don't hear them saying what Ms. Grohs DID get them! Only in hindsight are they so quick to remember the bad- what the JUDGE didn't award them. Ms. Grohs defended me in a Motion from Father and Paternal Grandparent’s f...or Custody of my then 5 year old son. I not only STILL have FULL CUSTODY my son, but also the visitation arrangements that I proposed, and also an open line of communication between all parties that was closed before Ms. Grohs came along and worked diligently to repair it. I have since recommended Ms. Grohs to my Mother, whom hired her on a consult basis for a Dissolution, but also my uncle, whom retained her to defend a TRO and respond to Petition for Dissolution: Ms. Grohs got the TRO thrown out, full custody restored to my uncle and support installed. On point, my uncle has also sent Ms. Grohs two referrals, both of which have resulted in the retaining Ms. Grohs. My suggestion to anyone going through divorce or custody issues is to have an educated open mind regarding the law when meeting an attorney and going through the Court system- It is not always fair and can often be quite the opposite of whatever you were expecting.

One Great Attorney

She kept me sane during a very insane time in my life. With her help I was able to better understand the system and the how/ why point of view of the Court. We were granted my request and since my family has moved on to happier times. Still, when I hear anyone speak of the nightmares of dissolution, ...I quickly pull out Paula's card. Everyone needs someone the can completely trust when going through this kind of turmoil, and Paula is just that.

Awesome attorney

I am currently using Paula Grohs as my family law attorney. I have had Paula on my case since 2007 and she has done an exceptional job for me. I have referred Paula to a number of friends who have also hired her. If you want an compassionate,ethical and aggressive attorney you MUST hire Paula Grohs.
