Grossman Young & Hammond

What Grossman Young & Hammond does

Grossman Young & Hammond is a U.S.-based immigration and international human rights law firm founded in 2014 and headquartered in Silver Spring, Maryland, with a secondary office in Washington, D.C. The firm operates three interconnected practice areas: Corporate Immigration (temporary work visas, permanent residency/green cards, corporate strategy and compliance, federal litigation, consular processing, and global mobility), Individual Immigration (deportation defense, family-based immigration, waivers, and citizenship/naturalization), and International Protection (asylum, INTERPOL Red Notice defense, victims-of-crimes relief, and children's immigration matters including DACA and SIJS).

The firm generates revenue through professional-services fees billed on a case-by-case, quote-based model. Client engagement is sales-led, driven through direct consultations at office locations plus inbound inquiries via phone, email, and web contact forms. The customer base is bifurcated: enterprise/corporate clients requiring employment-based immigration counsel and individual/family clients seeking humanitarian, defensive, or family-based relief. Named enterprise clients span hospitality (Old Edwards Inn & Spa, Ma Maison), food and beverage (Bistro du Marché La Jolla), media (Global News Network), technology (Perfect Sense/Brightspot), and legal referral sources. The international-protection practice has served high-profile individual clients including a former Attorney General of Guatemala.

There is no proprietary technology platform; service delivery rests on attorney expertise, federal-court litigation capability, and a strategic referral network of local immigration counsel enabling global mobility coverage. The firm holds no patents, operates no app, and has no API. Branding, thought leadership via two blogs (Transcending Borders and The INTERPOL Report), and Chambers / U.S. News Best Law Firms rankings are the principal market-positioning assets. Ownership rests with the founding partners—Sandra Grossman and Becki Young—under a traditional partnership model, with no disclosed institutional, private-equity, or venture capital investors.
