Hired Attorney

Mr. Grauer helped me through one of the most difficult moments of my life. He became more than a lawyer he became a friend. He was always there to help me and make sure me and my interests were protected when I was either unaware of my rights or too emotionally attached to the situation to make logical decisions. Divorce is not a pleasant experience but it was a little easier having Mr. Grauer by my side.

Hired Attorney

I hired David Grauer to assist in resolving a difficult and traumatic family estate and real estate dispute involving multiple properties and business interests. His practical and pragmatic expert advice enabled me to successfully realize and recover monies due me and in a reasonably short time I succeeded in putting this complex dispute very successfully behind me allowing me to move on. I strongly recommend David Grauer’s excellent services!

Hired Attorney

I hired David after I interviewed more than 5 attorneys. David was the most charismatic one and seemed to be very professional. At the end I spend 9000$ for a very simple case, but the case didn't move toward resolution at all, I had to fire David for not performing his job. David was very strong in talking when HE needed something, but he didn't do any work, moreover he didn't answer most of the questions I asked. I had to negotiate all the terms with my wife by myself, because David was absolutely useless during negotiation. Even after me and my wife come to an agreement, David and other attorney were unable to prepare settlement agreement, providing bunch of excuses instead of creating an agreement document. Please be aware that the only thing David wants from you is to get your payment, to do the job is not his priority. Don't waste your money. After I fired David, I had to teach him how to properly remove him from my online case.
