Winfield and Grossman developed a life-long friendship, and it was Winfield who wrote Grossman's letter of recommendation for law school. Grossman has represented Winfield since 2000.
Although Grossman successfully combined his legal background with his love of sports, he is also a successful criminal defense attorney who has won several high-profile cases in the San Diego area.
Legal commentary Grossman is occasionally called upon to speak about legal matters in sports -- most recently steroid use in baseball. He has appeared on ESPN and in several national newspapers, including the New York Times and the Minneapolis Star Tribune, both as guest and legal commentator.
