Biography

Career Highlights:
Dale Gribow is a “Boutique Concierge” CV PI/DUI firm with 25+ TOP LAWYER awards, 4 Dale Gribow Days, 9 Man of the Year (The City of Palm Desert, The City of Hope and The California Senate etc) and awarded Mr. Charity. The caseload is limited, allowing calls to be answered and returned the “Old Fashioned” way…by Dale, not an assistant.
Dale promises, “Whether or not I accept your case if you take the time to call, I will personally take the time to direct you.”
Don’t let a lawyer who hasn’t walked in your shoes as a fellow accident victim tell you how to tie your laces. You need an Esquire, not an Escort! Of course most people never need a lawyer, however, plan ahead and note Dale’s info, in case you do…because people don’t plan to fail, they fail to plan!

Most local doctors didn't learn this in "Their Medical School," thus decreasing your case value. The chances are this includes your doctor.

For decades, followers of his 1,000+ legal columns and “Accidentally Yours” talk shows know he advises, “ONLY hire a local award-winning PI Lawyer, and not some no name, non-local 1-800 lawyer. Gribow was also a victim and walked in your shoes!" He understands what you are and will be going through and understands that Accidents never happen at a good time...so “Don’t let a lawyer, who has not walked in your shoes, tell you how to tie your laces, and don’t let the insurance company run you over too.” You need sound advice, not soundbites, from an experienced award-winning lawyer!

Q. Is it inappropriate to reach out to PD after coming to agreement with the DA as the victim who wants no time? Felony DV
A: This should all be handled by the lawyers...and not you....as a general rule...stay out of it.

In a good percentage of DV cases, the V wants to drop the charges or for the D to get NO TIME.

I think this is because D is the breadwinner AND father of any child in the house.

The DAs are used to getting requests to dismiss/go easy on the D...but that doesn't mean they will do so.

A lot often depends on the past history of the D..............and the severity of the injury.
Q. how do i file a malpractice lawsuit against my attorney
A: a lawyer, like you, has a right to quit.

have you talked to other lawyers?

does the case have enough value for a lawyer to pursue?

these are VERY expensive cases to pursue and most of my friends won't take a malpractice case for less than $1M

Remember, you can always sue on your own in small claims court for up to $10k, though there is talk of raising the limit.
Q. I need help with medical malpractice/wrongful death
A: write out a detailed summary of the facts and set up an appointment with a local med/mal lawyer.

do you have a doc that says they did not meet the standard of care that society mandates?

I would assume you have talked to medical malpractice lawyers already. What did they say?

these are very costly cases to take on and most of my friends won't take a case worth less than $1M.
