My final gpa is 3.3 and my sophomore year gpa is around 2.9.
My grandfather passed away that year and there was a succession dispute on his foreign property with my uncle. I collected evidence about my grandfather's will and prepared statement with lawyers while studying at school. And I needed to fly to the country and explain some evidence to the judge.
Should I write a GPA addendum?

Re: GPA Addendum?
Yes, I think you should. What schools are you trying to apply to?
Is there anyway for you to boost your GPA or did you graduate already?

Re: GPA Addendum?
Regardless, your GPA was going to be below median at most schools, and may well be below the 25th percentile. The addendum might be worthwhile if you think a school is going to be concerned by a single year of anomalous grades but I'd keep it to a single paragraph. You don't need or want the school to focus on your GPA.
Personally I'm not sure it will be helpful. Focus on getting a stellar LSAT.
