About Evelyn Gryk
Evelyn Gryk Frolich has practiced law in Connecticut for decades. She is an experienced member of the state bar and a familiar presence in the Manchester legal community. Her career spans courtrooms, bar association leadership, and collaborative practice.
Frolich earned her Bachelor of Arts from Assumption College in 1976. She continued her legal studies at Widener University, receiving her Juris Doctor in 1979. That same year she joined the State Bar of Connecticut and began a practice that has remained rooted in the state ever since.
Early in her career she became involved in professional organizations that shaped her work life. She joined the American Bar Association and the National Advocates Society in 1984, expanding her professional network beyond Connecticut while maintaining close ties at home. Local bar groups also occupied an important place in her professional life; she served as president of the Manchester Bar Association and holds membership in both the Connecticut Bar Association and the Hartford County Bar Association.
Her leadership extended into collaborative practice. From 2014 to 2017 Frolich served as president of Collaborative Divorce Professionals. That role placed her at the center of a movement toward negotiated, less adversarial approaches to family conflict. Colleagues say the position required steady management of a diverse membership and an ability to balance professional standards with practical concerns of separating couples.
Frolich’s firm affiliation is Gryk & Frolich, LLC, where she practices as a lawyer. Over the years she has combined private practice with bar work and organizational leadership. She has maintained continuous membership in the State Bar of Connecticut since 1979 and active memberships in national organizations since the mid-1980s.
Her public record is one of steady participation in the institutions that regulate and support the legal profession. She has been a consistent presence in county and state bar activities. Through elected and appointed roles she has contributed to the administration of local bar programming and professional education.
In the Manchester area and across Hartford County, Frolich is known for her work in collaborative divorce and related areas of family law. She represents clients in divorce-related matters and participates in alternative dispute resolution processes. Her current practice at Gryk & Frolich, LLC focuses on family law and collaborative divorce in Connecticut.
