Zachery Groves is amazing! He took on my complicated divorce case and made it all work out with his knowledge and experience in the field. I didn't feel like I was just another case. All thanks to Zack because he always listened to my concerns and worked with me as a team. He is not like other lawyers who shy away from difficult cases. He is very determined to do the best for you, the client. He is very professional, courteous and overall amazing person to work with. He will always give you the best option that suits your situation and look out for you. Thanks Zack!

In January 2018 I was in a car accident that should have killed me. What I didn’t know until six months later was that the State of Maryland planned to press charges. I immediately contacted the law offices of James E. Crawford and linked up with criminal defense attorney Mark Sobel. Mr. Sobel and the James Crawford team guided me through the legal issues, helped me establish a good case and ultimately helped me see the case through to a successful completion. Mark and the team were spectacular; and, I’m certain that should you find yourself in a similar condition they’ll be spectacular for you.

I can’t say enough great things about the staff, their ability to relay all information, and the way James Crawford handles himself. Patty who I believe is Jim’s secretary was just great. Always positive, informative, and given the circumstances on why I was there, always made me feel welcomed. From the moment I called, to the day my situation was over, Jim Crawford had my back. Keeping me informed, my family at ease, and in the nightmare that we were living in at the time I felt as if I could truly trust him. He knew exactly what to do, what steps to take, and everything ended up working out. He took his time explaining things and answering the many many questions I had. I couldn’t be more thankful for the work that they did for me. My experience was one of mutual respect with everyone in the office, and quite frankly I was humbled by the whole process. Within the first day meeting Jim I felt as if I could already trust him. He’s great, has a great law office, and if for some wild reason I found myself needing any legal council in the future I would without hesitation pick up the phone and call Jim. The most sincerest thank you I can possibly give for all the very much appreciated help.

The staff here and Attorney Groves were so compassionate and eager to help solve my emergency custody case. He did everything he could to the best of his ability and the staff were reliable, knowledgeable and fast. They worked with me to get my son back and I will forever be grated for them and how they handled me during this delicate time. Thank you to the staff at James E Crawford and Associates and Especially Mr. Zachary Groves, Esq.

I would recommend The Law Offices of James E. Crawford.

Mr. Zachary Groves from the Law office of James E. Crawford represented me in my legal matter. His services are very detail oriented. As a communicator, Mr. Groves is effective in two ways: 1) As important legal dates approach, he will make contact. 2) When Mr. Groves needs to explain the law, he is able to explain it to a "normal" person like me and not come off like he is condescending. Thank you.

Attorney Zachery Groves and his 5 star team
operate with a professionalism you can count on.

The handling of my case was impeccable.

Two other lawyers from a different firm previously tried to handle my case resulting in financial loss and disappointment.

Then I hired attorney Zachery Groves. This was a smart legal move.

Zack and his team: Elana Raphaely esq. and paralegal Courtney Capers were able to work thru the court system with ease, precision and confidence.

Attorney Groves took charge and said in a confident reassuring voice “It’s my job to protect you”.

Attorney Groves remove the stress from my life by leveling the field where the case was unfairly stacked against me.

Today I am a product of a winner from the law offices of James E. Crawford and associates.

NOT RECOMMENDED!
I usually don’t give bad reviews, but I had a terrible experience, the business is fundamentally flawed with poor leadership, and if it saves another person from graying hair and a depleted bank account, then I’ve done my job.
I do NOT recommend James Crawford and Associates.

It seems that their policy is to drag your case out as long as possible until you’re completely broke.

Their attorneys aren’t the usual smart, quick, strategic thinkers, but instead, they’re highly paid notaries that are terrible at simple copy/paste jobs, and they don’t know what to do in court (and that’s if they even show up to court, NOT KIDDING!). So if you see the names of other people’s children in your examination questions, that’s normal at this firm, but last time I checked, I don’t have any kids named Jayden.

After I was passed off from my first attorney Zachery Groves to Lauren Kamenas, she charged me for duplicated work, she would not respond to my calls/emails for weeks and months at a time, and when she did respond, she was quick to make excuses or blame me for something. She often mentioned that she was working at a discounted rate – I guess to justify her poor service. She once told me that another attorney abruptly left the firm, so she had a much higher work load, maybe that's why she usually came unprepared. It's also interesting that I'd often see "case meeting" on my invoices, but I wasn't privy to these meetings, and nothing was getting done, but hey after those meetings Lauren and her paralegals all had enough money to fill up their BMWs and go get drinks.

Zack is the lead Domestic Law attorney there. He was energetic and confident, he knew his stuff. This was the guy I wanted to represent me. Since I was a veteran, a combat-wounded Marine missing both legs after stepping on an IED in Afghanistan, and taking care of three kids BY MYSELF, Zack said he wanted to help me out, so he gave me a discount from the normal rate of $325/hr to $250/hr and asked that I put down only $1500.

After over $20,000 and two years later, I couldn’t even get Lauren to answer a few simple, time sensitive questions that I had during a phone call. Note that they were still charging me but she refused to answer important questions. She was never a good communicator, and that was only one of many red flags that I should have addressed from the beginning, but trying to balance three kids, work, physical therapy, and disabled life isn't easy.

During a phone call with Mr. James Crawford, I wanted to bring these concerns to his attention, however, I was mocked and ridiculed.

If I had continued with Crawford’s firm, I would have spent well over $30K or $40K. They take advantage of disabled veteran single fathers. They will nickle and dime you for every little thing and they don't communicate to you ahead of time what's going on. If you fire them, they will continue making up reasons to bill you until the judge signs off on their withdraw. They'll call the court and wait on hold for 30 - 45 minutes, and there goes a good chunk of the money in the account you just replenished, so now Beth from Billing will be calling you today to get another payment even though you literally just made one. Just stay away, you were warned.

Hire someone else – or, even better – do what I did, figure out a reasonable way to settle your own divorce. You can do it, I believe in you!

God bless.

Terrible with explaining what's actually going on all they care about is taking your money and dragging proceedings out to take more money from you. I would not recommend to anyone. They do not get the job done and you are probably better off getting a public defender.

I am working through a separation/divorce with my wife and as expected it can be a little overwhelming and stressful at times. The Law Offices of James E. Crawford, Jr. & Associates have been extremely helpful throughout this process. My attorney is Ms. Abigail Beichler, Esq. and her expertise concerning the law in this matter has had a calming effect throughout this process. My situation is still ongoing but I am very confident in a positive outcome concerning this negative situation because of the The Law Offices of James E. Crawford, Jr. & Associates and in particular Ms. Abigail Beichler, Esq.

When Law Enforcement suddenly threw my life into a state of shock, panic and desperation, I made the VERY BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE,,,,, I called the Law Offices of James E. Crawford Jr & Associates!
Mr Crawford personally contacted me that same day, told me everything would be ok and had me in his office the following morning. He understood the gravity of my situation, not just legally but also mentally & emotionally. From Day-1, Mr Crawford dealt with me and my case with great expertise, strength and compassion.
My ordeal was quite grave, but I always felt very confident that with Mr Crawford in my corner, the best outcome could be possible. Over my lengthy ordeal, Mr Crawford has spent countless hours listening, advising, and answering notebooks full of questions and scenarios.
Mr Crawford was diligent and thorough in my Case. He ensured I was aware of what was happening and what was coming next. He dealt with Law Enforcement and the Court System in my proxy with ALL communications. He ensured I completed the very best Assessments and Treatments to strategically place me in the very best light with the Judge.
When the time came, I feel that Mr Crawford defended me as he would have defended his own son. Because of Mr Crawford, my case outcome was better than I had ever dreamed of! In many ways, Mr Crawford saved my life…
IF YOU OR A LOVED ONE FIND YOURSELF IN A TIME OF DESPERATION,,,,,, PLEASE CALL THE LAW OFFICES OF JAMES E. CRAWFORD JR & ASSOCIATES!!!!!
(A HUGE shout out to Patty Keene and the rest of the staff! You all made me feel like Family! Thank you!)

These guys are rooted in reality. There are no false promises. They work hard on your case, and can take an impossible situation and make it good for you. I had more expensive lawyers who couldn't get done what these guys could. Also they care about your money as well. They explain the strategies to you using a cost benefit analysis that keeps you informed. These guys are awesome, and Because my kids are so young, I WILL be using them over and over.

Zach Groves has represented my divorce custody settlement for over five years. He is very attentive and always give updates with the status of my case and where it is in the legal process. He walked me through the Maryland legal process of my custody settlement and provides all the possible outcome depending on my decision

Zach does not waste time in addressing my case, he gives up front truth, the good, the bad of my case and walked me through the steps to reach my settlement. Because of his outstanding service, I still keep his legal service to represent my ongoing custody settlement.

PAY ATTENTION TO OTHER BAD REVIEWS!!!!!! I would give this place negative ratings if I could. We went in to meet with one attorney with an appointment, were given another attorney who by the way took no notes, and also had a meeting so our consult lasted about 5 minutes. We filled out a sheet of paper with some details that should have given them the basics to file the domestic case which was urgent at that time. A week later an email was sent by the attorney for the basic information needed to file. They entered their appearance with the court and we thought we were off and running, nope. Our retainer had almost expired (2,000), we never even signed a retainer agreement or knew the rates. They forgot to send it, so they billed the remainder of the money changing a name in their form agreement for both capital (not my case) and domestic cases and sent it to me. They bill weekly@ 300-400 per hour. We were in the second week at this point, how many of you make enough to pay that weekly? They billed for EVERYTHING, emails being sent, reading them, and to some extent I understand the time involved in this, but administrative costs for a huge staff and everything they do should not be entirely charged to the client. It looks like a smaller firm, but its not.
We expected to pay more overall for the case, but not before the case even got filed. They were fired and we were unable to retain an attorney fast enough to stop the other parent from hurting our rights. If you want protection and someone who actually a) cares about the case and then b) can do the job correctly, this is not the office for you. They may do well in some circumstances, but not in a urgent or even timely manner.

I have never been so pleased with a law office in my whole life. I'm 53 years old and sometimes the law doesn't always protect the innocent. But this time it did with your help, very much so. Me and my wife just want to say thank you for helping us out with a very stressful intimidating problem. Without you I would have definitely gone to jail for something that I didn't deserve to go to jail for. Jason fox in your office went above and beyond the Call of Duty and he gave us peace of mind and made the whole process smooth as glass and unintimidating. He really made this tough situation not so bad and gave us the protection we needed. Thanks again I will definitely use you again if I need to in the future and I will highly recommend you to anyone who needs legal help. God bless you James Crawford and Jason Fox and your team. Please enjoy your holidays this year!!

Going through any family law situation can bring challenges, ups and downs, stress, financial hardship, etc. I needed an attorney who was strong and could stand up to those challenges but also someone that was caring and understood the situation was more to me than just another court case. When I came for my initial consultation with Mr. Zachery Groves, I knew within 5 minutes of meeting him that he was the lawyer I wanted to have represent me. Mr. Groves is a very straightforward attorney and he assured me that he knew how to handle my case.

With any good attorney, you as a client must still put in work so that he/she can be well prepared to argue for your case. He let me know what was required from me in advance and kept me in the loop of the next direction we needed to move. This made for a very successful case! If you are looking for a Family Law attorney, Mr. Zachery Groves is one of the best in the business. I must also mention his office staff was phenomenal with scheduling, finances and admin support. Dawn and Patty were a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend the James E. Crawford Law Firm. Thank you for a job well done! – Mandy R.

I can not thank Mr.Crawford and his staff enough for their support and dedication to my case. I am forever grateful. I thought it was all down hill and had no hope for my case Mr.Crawford told me it’s going to be fine and we are going to get through this and that’s what we did. He won my case and got it dismissed and through it all his staff supported me mentally and showed that they truly care not just about the case but me. I want to give a special thank you to Caline she reached out to me and treated me like her son for that i love and appreciate you thanks.

I retained Zack Groves for an “uncontested” divorce who was very professional and explained the best way to proceed efficiently and in a way to minimize my time and financial exposure. During the process he gave me key information and counsel that saved me the atty’s fees several times over. At one point there was a misunderstanding with the other party over a sizable sum of money and Zack resolved the matter immediately which itself almost paid for my atty’s fees. I picked through the invoices carefully as the legal profession is all about billable hours and did not find anything that caused me concern or seemed unreasonable for the work needed to conclude the case. I saw a few older reviews on a forum for this firm that were less than glowing but if you walk into a law firm with no idea how it works and/or unprepared to do some work yourself to provide the necessary information for the case as well as a clear direction then you need to expect to pay for a lot of hours that were unnecessary. That’s with ANY firm. I thought Zack did a good job of being receptive, offering solutions, communicating with opposing counsel, and fighting for and keeping my concerns in mind throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to someone else or to use him again should the need arise.

They have things so disorganized and backwards here.

I ended up not going with him because they are just ridiculous there. I represented myself and got it dismissed.

Hello my name is Benjamin, I recently hired Mr.James Crawford to defend me with a very disturbing case; I just got to win. As we all know, you just can not talk to a lawyer whenever you want, we must make an appointment.Doing just that, I had a chance to talk with Mr.Crawford's secretary, Mrs.Patty Keene. She always took the time to speak with me and reassure me that everything would be alright. Mrs.Patty told me to call her any time I need to talk about info regarding the case or if I need to vent to destress. Mrs.Patty is a very caring and compassionate person.

If you need a lawyer than this is the one you want! Jim explains everything and had me confident from day 1. I hired Jim’s father in my younger days and I gotta say Jim has only improved upon the excellence of his father. When you step in the courtroom with Mr Crawford by your side one cannot help but to feel secure. I hope you never need a lawyer but if you do Mr. Crawford is who you want in your corner! The knowledge, ferocity, commitment and support run rampant in the whole office as well. Patty is top notch and a very important asset to the firm! 5 stars all around!!

I highly recommend Zack Groves for your divorce attorney. Zack took over my contested divorce from another lawyer, which is hard to do. My divorce was adversely affecting my health. Zack and his team met with me and assured me they would actively work with me to get the best possible solution. I left 2 binders and a stack of paper documents of information. Zack immediately started work and restarted communications with the opposing lawyer. He has always passed on information and consulted me on his plans for my case. I will update this recommendation periodically as my divorce progresses.

First of all, the personal time taken to answer my MANY questions and to ease the stress and anxiety of the whole situation was more than half the battle. Patty Keene is not only knowledgeable but relatable and accessible. I would recommend this team in a HEART beat. Not only does this company have the skills they have the COMPASSION to treat people as individuals and to help you through your process. Super strong team. I have to, again, mention the personalized time that was taken no matter how many times I called (because there were many) and how I was spoken to and treated as a PERSON. It matters. Thank you.

My attorney did a great job, she was very knowledgeable and always got back to me quickly when I had questions about my divorce case, she kept me up to date on everything and let me decide after giving me the facts as we moved forward. We ended up reconciling after 6 months in divorce court and James Crawford was a big part of that due to their diligence and guidance throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them. This is the second time I have utilized James Crawford and have had a good outcome both times.

I had nothing but a phenomenal experience. My lawyer was very professional and vested in my case. He helped me to ensure that my son's well-being and health was the top priority and the results of the case proved that.
Would highly recommend this firm

By far the best law firm I have ever worked with. Mr Crawford was very open, friendly, and helpful. I would surely acquire his services again if needed. He was very knowledgeable and responsive and reasonable. Everyone in the office was nice and they really know how to make it about the customer.

I had a 3 yr custody battle with my ex girl over my daughter I can express how good and professional Mr. Zack Grove was in fighting by my side all the way to the point that I can see he took it personal seeing what was the best interest for my daughter and her future. I can honestly tell you if you ever need a good lawyer to fight for your rights Zack is the way to go , Thank you very much for your hard work and dedication!

Don't waste your time and money!!!!!! $2500 and did absolutely nothing but blow smoke up my ass. Called 5 times with no return calls.Honestly just charged $2500 to talk to me for a total of and hour. He should not be in business. I should of paid attention to the other bad reviews.

The primary lawyer here is great but one associate in particular has no business in a courtroom, especially defending a client. He would be great if he was placed in a law library somewhere doing legal research with other law nerds but I've seen public defenders do a MUCH better and thorough job then this associate had done. He wasn't worth $12.00, let alone $1200.00. It's an insult and sheer robbery for this firm to charge that kind of fee for this associate lawyer. Check with the State of Maryland because formal complaints have and WILL be filed with the State. If you need an attorney to help you with serious legal issues, if you don't have the primary attorney representing you and they try to assign an associate then DO NOT HIRE THIS FIRM!!! YOU'VE BEEN WARNED, YOU'LL BE VERY SORRY!!!

MR. CRAWFORD IS A FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL ATTORNEY. I WAS A DELIGHT SPEAKING WITH HIM AND SEEING HIM IN ACTION IN THE COURTROOM

Live chat isn't always the best resource. At my firm you don't even get to speak with an attorney without getting charged. Seems like your 5 minutes was a free service. I just wouldn't depend on a live chat with any company. I had a terrible experience with Amazon live chat. Speaking with a "live" person is so much more helpful. :) Most attorneys only have a license to practice in the state they live in. I can't speak for this firm from personal experience, but so far my brother has had an amazing experience and with Mr. Groves as well.

My website experience for this firm was excellent. Its live chat was outstanding. I let the person I was chatting with know I was interested in retaining an attorney for a matter which covered both Pennsylvania & Maryland. I was referred to their attorney, Zach Groves, for which an appointment was scheduled. My time with Mr. Grove did not last a full five minutes. He let me know he was unlicensed in the state of Pennsylvania & therefore could be of no help to me. He suggested I find someone in Pennsylvania who could represent my matter. I drove all the way from Frederick just to hear him tell me that. I wondered, what the heck use was the live chat referral for, anyway?
