Over 40 years as a practicing trial attorney, and over 35 years as a practicing mediator and arbitrator have given Jim Grumbach a wealth of experience that is shared by few. Jim has always been firmly committed to a belief that ADR should be encouraged and fostered whenever possible, serving as President, for nearly a decade, of Cambridge Dispute Settlement Center, (now known as the Community Dispute Settlement Center) one of the state’s first volunteer community mediation programs. Attorney Grumbach is thoroughly familiar with both plaintiff and defense work. Early in his legal career he spent over ten years at Morrison, Mahoney & Miller, where he handled insurance and commercial litigation. In 2003, Jim was awarded one of the ten largest plaintiff personal injury verdicts of the year. His current caseload is mainly in the fields of personal injury, professional liability insurance disputes and commercial litigation and is a mix of approximately 80/20% plaintiff/defense representation.
