GOOD PEOPLE. GREAT RESULTS.

What does our slogan "Good People. Great Results." mean? "Good people" means that our staff and attorneys are truly good people working to do what is best for our personal injury , wrongful death , worker's compensation , and social security disability clients. Our client testimonials demonstrate that this approach has resulted in our clients feeling good about their representation and being happy with the settlements and jury verdicts we obtain for them.

Attorney Richard Griffin has created a personal injury , wrongful death , worker's compensation , and social security disability law firm that consists of quality people who possess the following traits:

• Honest
• Hard working
• Caring and Friendly
• Professional and Experienced
• Get Great Results

Why is it important to hire "good people"? Hiring "good people" is the only way to insure high quality representation with outstanding customer service. The Griffin Law Firm staff truly enjoys working together to help our clients deal with the difficulties that are thrust upon as a result of their personal injury , wrongful death , worker's compensation , or social security disability claims.

What does it mean to deliver "great results"? "Great results" means that we obtain great settlements and verdicts for our clients. Great recoveries for valid claims are settlements and jury verdicts that fully compensate our client for their personal injury , wrongful death , worker's compensation , social security disability , total loss property damage , and diminished value property damage claims . Often the recoveries for the large personal injury and wrongful death claims are only limited by the amount of coverage under the available insurance policies. Personal injury attorney Richard Griffin utilizes his experience and resources to identify all of the available insurance policies and to stack those policies to maximize his client's recovery. This is an area where personal injury or worker's compensation claimants who represent themselves often loose large amounts because they do not know how to verify the policy limits of all available insurance policies and how to properly stack those policies with the use of limited releases .

Wrongful death attorney Richard Griffin is open and honest with his clients about the strengths and weaknesses of their cases so they can make the sometimes difficult decision of settling verses litigating. The Griffin Law Firm also utilizes the latest jury verdict research to educate their clients regarding the likely value of their case and to negotiate higher recoveries from the adjusters and defense attorneys. However, the actual value of each case is ultimately determined by the future jurors if the case is litigated.

What is an example of a great result for one of our personal injury clients?

An example of great results for our clients can be seen in a case involving a premise liability personal injury case. This case involved the negligent installation of a Sub Zero refrigerator when an installer failed to install the anti-tilt kit that the manufacturer required to be used. The installer's negligence resulted in the 700 pound refrigerator falling over and crushing the homeowner against the corner of a granite counter top island in their kitchen. The injured homeowner received serious injuries to her neck and back which included disc herniations and facet syndrome and had past pain management medical expenses of $80,000.00 plus future projected medical expenses of $30,000.00. The injured homeowner attempted to represent herself and was told by the store that it was not our fault and we will not pay you anything. A quick summary of the road to recovery for this injured homeowner is below:

(1) Zero offer when the personal injury claimant attempted to represent herself

(2) $50,000.00 offer when The Griffin Law Firm negotiated on her behalf before litigation.

(3) $1,000,000.00 jury verdict when Attorney Richard Griffin litigated the case when the offer was too low.

OUR FIRM'S PRACTICE AREAS : The attorneys and lawyers at The Griffin Law Firm, P.C. exclusively handle Wrongful Death , Personal Injury , Workers' Compensation , and Social Security Disability Claims . By focusing only on injury law, we have gained the needed experience to excel in these areas of the law. These claims involve serious and debilitating injuries and illnesses or in the case of Wrongful Death even the loss of a life.

In Wrongful Death Claims we represent people who have lost a member of their family due to the negligent acts of another. These are the saddest cases imaginable since no amount of money can ever replace the death of a family member. Often the family's ability to continue to pay their bills is in jeopardy when their loved one is suddenly taken. The settlements or jury verdicts in Wrongful Death Claims involve recovering for the full value of a life. The value of a life is based on both the economic (income earning) and what the lost love one meant to their family and community.

In Personal Injury Claims , we help people who are injured in car wrecks, trucking accidents, motorcycle accidents, slip and falls, and other types of serious accidents. Personal Injury Claims require that the injuries were caused by the negligent actions of someone else. A common example is when another driver negligently causes an car wreck which causes serious injury to one of our clients. The personal injury recoveries or settlements compensate the injured victims for all of their past and future medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Personal Injury recoveries and settlements help you recover for not only the money damages (medical bills and lost wages), but also for the pain and suffering and the negative impact and disruption to your life due to your painful injuries.

In Workers' Compensation Claims we help injured employees who are hurt on-the-job get the medical treatment, income benefits (lost wages), and permanent partial disability benefits (permanent loss of use of your body due to your injuries). When you are ready to settle your Worker's Compensation Claim , then we will negotiate a worker's compensation lump sum settlement that will fully compensate you for your worker's compensation claim. Without an attorney many injured workers never receive the medical treatment and income benefits that they have a right to receive and usually receive very low settlement offers.

In Social Security Disability Claims are claims in which our firm helps people receive federal compensation for their disabilities. To be eligible for Social Security Disability you must have injuries or illnesses which are likely to prevent you from performing any job in the U.S. economy for at least one year. You can hire us on a contingency bases to fight to get you the social security disability benefits that you are entitled to receive. In many cases we have been successful in obtaining Social Security Disability Benefits for our clients when they have been turned down many times before by the Social Security Administration .

Do you need to hire an attorney for your personal injury, wrongful death, worker's compensation, or social security disability claim?

1. Higher recoveries : Insurance companies have performed studies that confirmed that people who are represented by attorneys for their personal injury claims recover on average 3.5 times more than those representing themselves.
2. Case Value : Without an experienced personal injury, wrongful death, or worker's compensation attorney you do not know the value of your case. Attorney Richard Griffin uses his experience and the latest jury verdict research to establish the likely value of your claim.
3. Litigation : Without a seasoned personal injury, wrongful death, or worker's compensation lawyer you cannot effectively litigate your claim. This means that if you represent yourself you cannot hold the adjuster and defense attorney's feet to the fire to make sure the settlement is fair. Our law firm has an outstanding track record of successfully negotiating and litigating injury and wrongful death claims that fully compensate our clients for their claims.
4. Insurance Coverage : It takes the knowledge and experience of an experienced lawyer to identify all of the insurance policies that cover your personal injury or wrongful death claim and to verify the accurate policy limits for each claim.

Representing yourself could be a costly mistake : One of our clients attempted to represent themselves in a motorcycle accident personal injury claim prior to hiring us. The liability adjuster verbally told the claimant that the policy limits were only $30,000. Later after they hired our firm we discovered that the policy limits were actually $50,000. If the claimant had settled for the $30,000, then they would have lost the $20,000 in additional liability coverage, as well as, the $50,000 in additional under-insured motorist coverage. Our firm has successfully stacked multiple liability insurance policies, uninsured motorist policies, under-insured motorist policies, umbrella policies, and employer insurance policies frequently since 1995. Attorney Richard Griffin further describes the above situation in the following video:

• Income Benefits: How much exposure does the worker’s compensation insurer have to past and future income benefits (lost income due to injuries)?

• Age of the claimant: How old is the claimant? It is much easier to be awarded disability benefits if you are older rather than younger. There is even a lower standard for disability for claimants over 50 years of age.
• Education of the claimant: How educated is the claimant? As a general rule the more educated the claimant the harder it will be to be held to be disabled.
• Work Experience of the claimant: Has the claimant worked in sedentary jobs or have the prior jobs been physically demanding? The general rule is it is easy to be awarded Social Security Disability if your past work experience has been physically demanding rather than office work.
