Professional Information

About the Practice
Margaret Grathwol is the shareholder of Grathwol Law, PA and is known by everyone as Pook, (rhymes with "cook") — the name is a childhood nickname and comes from a rhyme which ended with "Margaret Mary Pickle Puss" (ask her for the full story). Pook is dedicated to helping the elderly — in her world, a client in her 70's is young, a client in his 80's is getting old, and when her clients reach their 90's, she can say they "have arrived." "I never had a single grandparent when I was growing up. In fact, I even adopted a few elderly neighbors along the way (thank you Kitty and Lowell Moody). Today I feel very fortunate to be able to make the lives of the elderly and their families more peaceful and plentiful."
