About GGB

About

Our Story

Grant, Genovese & Baratta, LLP was founded in 1999 by David Grant, Michael Genovese, and James Baratta, who set out to build a law firm that combined the sophistication of big law with the personalized service and values of a boutique practice. Their vision was clear: deliver exceptional legal representation with integrity, practicality, and unwavering commitment to client success.

Over the years, GGB has grown into a trusted, full-service law firm serving businesses, entrepreneurs, and individuals throughout California and beyond. From precedent-setting litigation to high-stakes corporate and real estate transactions, our attorneys bring deep experience, sharp judgment, and a client-first mindset to every matter.

Our litigation team has tried more than 200 cases to verdict in state and federal courts, while our corporate lawyers have guided companies through complex mergers, capital raises, governance issues, and regulatory landscapes. We’ve counseled clients across a broad spectrum of industries—from healthcare to insurance, employment to emerging markets like cannabis and alternative finance.

What hasn’t changed is our commitment to building lasting relationships. Many of our clients have been with us since our founding—proof that trusted counsel stands the test of time.

At GGB, we’re ready to help you move forward—whether you’re facing a dispute, closing a deal, or simply need sound legal advice. Let us know how we can help.

Our story
  • We put ourselves in our client’s shoes always looking at the end goal. We never wait for our clients to call us to find out what is going on. I guess you could say that our proactive client service sets us apart. We represent people with real problems that need real solutions – quickly.

    Founding Partner

  • You’re one of the best lawyers. I want to tell you that your style and knowledge of scholarship was wonderful, and you should know that. We get lawyers here from all over the state all the time. Our cases are filled with out-of-town lawyers, and from big cities and big firms, and, you know, you’re right up there at the top of them. I really appreciated your courtesy during the trial.
