    Don't waste your valuable time and money!you can not get past the receptionist without $15,000 upfront.why this firm even advertises they represent employees in the area is beyond me when they have a fee structure designed for wealthy employers. can they serve your interest if all they care about is the ability to pay and not the ability to collect from the case?their job becomes to drain your life savings and put you in further debt and harm when your rights have been violated by someone else. If I was opposing counsel I would hire them for the plaintiff so their case dies with their last dollar.

    We hired GRGB to handle a case for our developmentally disabled son. They said all the right things at the beginning - how motions would be filed and they would get to the truth. we sent our 25K retainer. Long story short, they used up all that retainer in 3 months reading what they called "voluminous data". Our son had asked for his phone to be downloaded, they finally agreed after 3 months but asked for an additional 3k to do it. Then after another month waiting they tell us and this is a quote "there is no Sift report. The reason for that is that when we retain experts to assist in a case, there's usually understanding that a "report" won't be prepared unless it's specifically requested." Well, that is what my son asked for multiple times but was refused. Then upon asking again and again he finally said he would get the phone download from the prosecutor - so why did they need to hire another company to the tune of 3k?? Can't get an answer to that. More reading at $10K a month and finally they file a motion contesting a lineup where my son's picture background was colored a bright bright blue, making it stand out from the others. They knew it was in discovery but would not tell us - my son asked us to go look at discovery. We found it and had to insist they make a motion against it - they just called it a "bad lineup " but did not want to do anything about it. After 5 months they finally filed a motion and it went to court but they were not going to subpoena the detectives we needed - they simply told us if they did not show the court would call them and if they could not make it they would schedule the case for another day -??? I guess that is fine when you have already charged your client 48K for 5 months of reading and one motion. In the end they filed only 2 subpoenas, our next attorney we had to hire told us they failed to subpoenas the other 2 people we needed, they let the prosecutor do it who is too happy to not hold missing witness accountable.
