Carl S. Milam / President / Western Concepts Restaurant Group / Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Chris Lucas / Owner / KoKo Fitclub / Edmond, Oklahoma

Jeff Vickers / Director of Development / Which?Which / Dallas, Texas

"Chris Griswold did a fantastic job handling my first lease negotiation.  Chris kept the process moving and he kept me up to date on all the changes and nuances as we progressed towards lease execution.  Working with Chris has been a delight and I look forward to working with him on all future projects."

Ted Barringer / Which?Wich Franchisee / Raleigh, North Carolina

"It is with pleasure that I recommend attorney Chris Griswold for all areas of your business where legal advice and having someone to look out for your best interests is needed.  Chris is very through and efficient in reviewing our lease documents.  There were many things in reviewing our documents that Chris discovered that at some point in the future would hamper our business.  Having someone to view things with a sense of ownership (as we all would like to see) is rare today.  I appreciate Chris Griswold and I believe you will as well."

Robbie Moon / Which?Wich Franchisee / Asheville, North Carolina

"Just a note to let you know how much I have appreciated your help in the past with lease preparation and certain lease particulars that the lay person may sometimes not be familiar with. You have demonstrated a good balance of getting past certain points of law that when considering the lease in its entirety, have a tendency to slow the deal process. 
 
As I continue to do more business with larger companies, especially public companies, your knowledge of what is relevant and what is not is of great benefit. I also value you not interjecting yourself in the business points of a transaction except when appropriate. 
 
I trust that we will be doing business together for many years to come."

Mark Ruffin, Precor/Ruffin / Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

"I want to reiterate how grateful we are for your continued guidance and professionalism.  Your commanding ability and communications skills are a true virtue and a great asset to our company.  Having you in our corner has given us great peace of mind heading into the future.  Thank you for everything."

Kris Garcia, Which Wich Franchisee / Dallas, Texas

Darren Ford / Owner & Developer of JOBO Properties, L.L.C. / Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

"We have worked with Chris Griswold in negotiating all aspects of our lease agreements and highly recommend his work.  He has always been diligent, thorough, quick and effective.  Additionally, he has a keen understanding of the truly critical aspects of leases and how best to address them."

Scott Osuna, Which Wich Franchisee / Dallas, Texas

"I recently had Chris Griswold serve as my attorney during lease negotiations for my second project.  Chris did a great job.  Among other things, he reviewed the lease document thoroughly to ensure that my best interests were covered.  The best part of working with Chris is that he takes the time to explain everything to you.  I will be using Chris for my next lease review."
