Grant Menges

Grant T. Menges began his passion for defense litigation during college. He was able to provide the defense in several judicial matters on campus and truly enjoyed winning. Upon graduating, Grant pursued that passion for defense litigation by attending the University of Illinois College of Law, which he attended on scholarship.

Upon graduating from law school, Grant passed the bar in multiple states and eventually settled into defense litigation at the St. Clair County Public Defender’s Office. He quickly became the Head of Misdemeanor and Juvenile where he began to hone his trial skills.

From there, he moved on to felony and eventually became the Chief of Litigation, handling everything from drug possession to armed robberies to murder and everything in between.
