What do our clients say?

Swift recently won summary judgment on a wrongful death case in a volatile Texas jurisdiction, in a claim that featured estimated exposure up to $30 million. Doug’s fast, thorough and insightful work in arguing independent contractor status of the decedent secured the court’s reversal of a prior ruling on the issue – a ruling that was bad law not just for Swift but for the industry – and that decision in turn paved the way for the win on summary judgment. I needed the best possible help on a pivotal issue, and Doug did exactly what I knew he would and could: treated the problem like it was his own, dug in deep and gave our defense team the ammunition it needed for a huge win. I hope I don’t need him again, but if and when I do he’ll be my first call.

Cedar R. Abadie, Esq. – Director of Litigation

“They taught us how to better help ourselves.”
“We’ve proudly been in business for over 20 years and are continuously looking for ways to improve our organization for long-term success. Most recently, we called on The Grawe Group to help us make sure our safety and risk management practices are strong and scalable with our growth plans. Gary and Doug took the time to learn our business needs, culture, processes, policies, and most importantly, our people. We were more than satisfied with the tailored and practical recommendations they gave us. They helped us prioritize and implement changes along with the tools to implement our own improvements effectively as we grow. These guys did not just help us, they taught us how to better help ourselves and in doing so they really became an extension of our team. We will continue to work with them in various ways because they understand us and I count them among my most trusted advisors.”

They know our business.

“We use The Grawe Group because they know our business, our industry, and our goals.  They get us practical guidance without a lot of fuss when we most need it. Operations, Finance, Legal, they have helped us in a lot of ways, and we like to think of them as an extension of our team.  Thank you for doing such good work for us!”

They hit the ground running and quickly became part of the team

“As the owner and leader of our organization, time is my most valuable and fleeting asset. I needed to get time in my day back to focus on our strategy and our business. I found the time and peace of mind I needed by bringing in Gary to help lead my Operations team. Gary and Doug were quite flexible and easy to work with. We worked together to define a scope of work with specific initiatives and objectives to keep the business moving forward, freeing me up to focus on our people and the future of our business. Gary’s years of experience in the transportation industry, combined with a high degree of professionalism and easy-going management style quickly earned the Operations team’s respect. That experience allowed him to hit the ground running and he quickly became part of the team. We will miss working with him.”

“I could not be happier with the results.”

“We are a national distributor with 56 locations and 180 power units throughout the US.  It is very important to us to deliver the same safety message and training to all of our Distribution Center Managers and Drivers. We hired The Grawe Group to put on a 4-hour DOT class for our new Distribution Center Managers. I could not be happier with the results.  Their content was custom and directed to only our organization.  They were very good presenters, provided quality information, and were very engaging with their audience. Even though we use them for our training, they make me feel very comfortable to call them at any time for any DOT questions.  We are looking forward to our continued partnership with The Grawe Group and our next manager training.”
