Outstanding

I hired Attorney Grover based on her incredible reputation and expertise in divorce law. She and her staff were caring, extremely competent and provided me with reassurance, support and the utmost confidence during the entire divorce process. I was truly impressed by Attorney Grover's knowledge, ex...pertise and advocacy. Her professionalism is extraordinary and I am extremely grateful to her and her team.

Best of the Best

Searching for a divorce attorney can be a very daunting task to say the least. I hope in writing this review, it will help others in my situation to find just the right professional to help them. Like a lot of people, I was blindsided when my husband of almost 22 yrs declared he wanted a divorce, p...lain and simple, he wanted out. I had, as a lot do, completely relied on him for everything, nearly all aspects of our life together. I needed the best atty I could find. Having several friends in the legal arena, Atty Deborah Grover came highly recommended. Finding Atty Grover was a life changing moment. From our first meeting, I felt completely comfortable and at ease. Atty Grover was compassionate, understanding and very helpful in helping me to deal with something that was very new and very emotional for me. Like many who are trying to find an attorney, asking opinions from people is tough, because everyone has an opinion. Referrals and opinions of Atty Grover were all outstanding. I can say from the bottom of my heart that having Deb represent me was the best decision I've ever made. She was not only my attorney, but soon became a friend I could trust. Deb is extremely professional, very well respected by not only her peers, but by the courts as well. She was always prepared, but more importantly made sure I was always prepared, as I knew nothing about the divorce process. Atty Grover fought aggressively to protect the assets that my husband and I had created during the marriage and made sure those rights were presented to the court in a fair and equitable manor, helping to make sure I would get what I was entitled to. Atty Grover also fought very hard to make sure that the expenses my husband was court ordered to pay were indeed always taken care of, and if not, than the proper actions were taken. She and her staff always kept me well informed, Deb sometimes answering me on the weekends. Deb's staff was and is beyond reproach, helping to explain every little detail to me throughout the process. If you are in the need of a professional, personally engaging, and very well respected attorney, then Attorney Grover is the attorney for you. I wholeheartedly recommend Deb. This is a life changing time in your life, (Deb told me this as well, and she was so right). You need the best of the best and Attorney Grover is the best and will not disappoint. Deb helped me to build the bridge to the next chapter of my life and she will do that for you as well. You know that old saying...." you get what you pay for", Attorney Grover was worth every penny. She's just OUTSTANDING!!!

They Don't Get Any Better

I hired Attorney Grover based on recommendations from several friends. Some had hired her. Others faced her as opposing counsel, and wished they had hired her. Deborah and her staff helped me through one of the toughest times of my life. The level of professionalism and expertise in this firm is way... above par. The creativity and unique approach to each case is what impressed me the most. You can get counsel at a cheaper rate, but you won't save any money in the long run. Attorney Grover doesn't waste time and gets incredible results. I faced a tough challenge in my case, but we got to a fair and equitable settlement thanks to this firm's unparalleled experience and expertise.

Great Divorce Attorney

If you are researching a divorce lawyer, who will fit your needs, you are in the right place. Just as I was doing my research in looking for a lawyer to council me, I found Deborah Grover. Divorce can be a long & painful process and Attorney Grover stood beside me every step of the way. She truly “wa...lked the walk” with me. Her attentiveness and availability to any of my questions or needs were tireless & insurmountable. Her staff was always on hand & willing to assist me with smiles, compassion & professionalism. I hired Attorney Grover because of her years of experience. She proved to me that she was capable, competent, & ethical. In the end she managed to help me find my true self again.

"Neither I nor any member of my firm practices family law. Whenever a client, friend or member of the community requests a referral from me for a family law matter, I refer them without hesitation to Deb. Her expertise and knowledge of the law, her professionalism, her ethics and excellent ability to communicate the intricacies of this very difficult and sensitive area of the law are unsurpassed in the region. The respect that the members of the family bar throughout the state have for her is quite evident as well. The clients that I have referred to her have been quite pleased by the service that they have received from Deb and her outstanding staff. She knows the law and she knows how to communicate it in a way that her clients can understand the life-changing decisions that they need to make. These are skills that are quite special for a lawyer in general, but especially in the field of family law.The results speak for themselves."

"My firm does not handle divorce cases, so we frequently need to refer clients to a family law practitioner. Deb Grover is always at the top of my list. She has a wealth of experience, and she is thoroughly familiar with the court system. When we entrust clients to her, they always receive careful attention, practical advice, and realistic guidance about the divorce process. Deb maintains the highest ethical and professional standards, so I feel extremely comfortable sending clients to her."
