From a young age, Max was inspired by his father, decorated trial attorney Josh Gruenberg, and grew up watching him try many cases before juries. That early exposure fueled his lifelong passion for courtroom advocacy. Max is committed to traveling throughout California—and beyond—to try cases on behalf of individuals harmed by corporations and institutions.

True to that commitment, Max prioritized trial experience early in his career. He has served as trial counsel in a range of venues—from a federal birth injury trial before Judge Dana Sabraw, to lead counsel on a seven-week construction defect jury trial before Judge Kevin A. Enright. His passion lies in oral advocacy and the pursuit of justice in the courtroom.

Max also maintains a strong dedication to pro bono work. He believes deeply in helping people who might otherwise be overlooked by the legal system, understanding that even a small case can have life-changing impact for someone with nowhere else to turn.

Outside of the courtroom, Max enjoys surfing, snowboarding, and producing electronic music under the name Echolocation
