Client Review of GriffithLaw Mark Glessner 5 stars ★★★★★ "John and his staff were excellent! They were thorough and caring, and communicated regularly. Mine was not a major injury but it was still treated as important.  When an offer eventually came from the opposing party, John laid out the facts and left it entirely up to me whether to take it or go to trial. I chose to go to trial and John thoroughly prepared...Kudo's to John and his staff! I highly recommend. " Read about Mark's car wreck case that went to trial in Sumner County.

"I'm Steve Hughes, I live in Franklin Tennessee and I am a real estate appraiser. I remember the car wreck I had in 2017, it was actually November 13th, at the time of the wreck I didn't think the injuries that I did have were that serious. But I did have and it was to my thumb is what it was and the diagnosis at the time was that everything is not broken, she stitched it up told me it was broken and it should be fine. Well after that initial diagnosis I guess I went, I didn't do anything anymore after that I didn't have any doctors take a look at it and my thumb never got any better. I wasn't getting any relief from my thumb, it was still swollen, I still had a lot of pain in it. So I decided to go see a specialist, a hand specialist, and that's when they determined that I had some additional damage to the thumb that they weren't able to see originally. This specialist examined my thumb and decided actually I needed surgery. The claim was adjuster, when she originally contacted me, just stated that I was entitled to a certain amount of money. They sent me the money that they told me I was entitled to and they considered that to be a settlement and everything was closed. The problem was I didn't know the extent of my injuries at that time, they didn't really surface until three months later. Yes, when she sent me that money in the beginning, I didn't understand it to be and she didn't tell me that it was a final settlement and that there wouldn't be any more consideration. As it turned out, the money that was sent to me originally did not cover, just a small percentage of the total bill for the surgery. Well, one thing I've learned through this process is the insurance company is not on my side. They fought this from the very beginning and their whole basis for that was the settlement, so-called settlement, that the insurance company gave me in the beginning. They felt strongly that that was the settlement that I agreed upon and there wouldn’t be any more to it. John went to court earlier in the process and the judge threw that out right away so we were able to proceed past that point. I do think the claims adjuster was not upfront with me. She gave me minimal information, but I felt like she was not upfront with me as far as what that money really was. With John and his and his staff, I felt like we were able to get a fair settlement. I was very happy with the way things turned out.  If I have learned one thing through the process of this, is that I needed a lawyer from the very beginning. The insurance company is not on my side, they were not there to help me, they were helped there to help themselves. You know if this happened again, the first person I would call would be my lawyer, and I would always call John."

"My name is Jesse Cox and I am firstly a husband to my wife Rachel and I'm a father to my kids Jude and Dorothy. And for the last four years, I've been a police officer and in that capacity, I've served the city and served people around me. That's one of the big reasons I got into policing to begin with to be a servant and on top of that I mean first of all, I'm a Christian and so that has really kind of guided all of my careers but especially in policing. I've been able to use that and help people especially in a capacity where you have power over people and never really exerting that in a negative way but you know trying to be you know a guiding light to people. It was kind of a really awesome experience to be a police officer and it definitely fulfilled a lot of the expectations I had for life and just things I wanted to do. Being a police officer really has I guess give me a lot of opportunity to help and that's really my entire life what I want to do is help people and I've been able to do that extremely well being a police officer.  On August 8th, 2017 I was working for the Metro Nashville Police Department in Davidson County. I just got a call to a wreck that happened, it was a hit and run wreck it was right down the road from where I was. I was on my way to us crossing Old Hickory right over I65 and all I can really remember is like a black SUV or truck in my peripheral and then after that, it was everything kind of blank after that because I think I kept on going in and out of consciousness the whole time. I eventually had people that would come in and kind of check on me. I remember nurses came in and then I remember that was when my wife came and visited me. At that point I'm laying in the stretcher with a neck brace on I can't move anything at all. My arms are I think that my hands were pretty much the only thing my arms or only thing I can move and I was terrified at that point because I'd really started to come to really think about what had happened what was going on. And I and no one had really told me anything and so my wife comes in and I see her and she's of course in tears because she's freaking out and hearing her story is it's pretty hard to listen to too. even talking about her part of the story but I remember asking her if I was ever gonna walk again because I had no idea. Of course the whole night I just had officers from all over that had I've come to know throughout the whole my whole career come in to check on me. Metro Nashville on that ground level the officers that were you work with are all with you 100% and they're all gonna people I didn't even know came to check on me and brought my family food and coffee and all sorts of stuff throughout the entire time. It was pretty awesome. Then you know my wife is definitely gonna have to adjust to life at this point, she knows she's gonna have to help me through all of these simple things that I was unable to do without her help before. Now she's gonna be required to help me do everything. You know I still feel the effects of the accident today and that's when I called you guys and so I remember I came in and we scheduled an appointment. I came in and kind of explained it to you and through the process I mean, I was just able to to learn that there was a lot more you could do and that those bills that I was really kind of afraid of, that I was gonna pay Metro back, really weren't as crucial as I thought it was going to be. And it wasn't you know as big as big a deal but was something that we could actually get past through that process.  I did learn that there was the new law that basically stated up to two years to sue if a criminal act was done against you and that was really big for me because knowing that this guy basically committed aggravated assault with a vehicle against me, that was a criminal act, and I could still sue him for that. And so I was able to come out and add that to part of our suit and we were able to win which was awesome and we didn't have to pay Metro back and it ended up being really great for our family. And it did give us a complete closure with the whole situation. I don't feel like there's anything left on the table at this point and anything else I could have done. During this process the injury and trying to get in contact with you, before I called you I actually called a metro lawyer. I don't know if it was our FOP lawyer or one of the actual Metro lawyers. I'm not sure who they recommended me to call, but I called one and they literally had no idea. They were like we don't deal with injury accidents and we don't really know what advice to give you or what to tell you or who to send you even to. And so at that point, I was like well why in the world do I even pay you to represent me. I think it might have been the FOP because they were no help at all and they knew nothing about it.  So my experience with John and his staff just from the very beginning I felt like I was their number one priority. Like they were gonna take care of me and they were gonna research as much as they needed to research for the law. They were gonna talk to the people involved in the process, from the insurance companies to the involved parties, to how they were going to fully take on this case. And so I really felt like though through the whole process I got updated often on where they were and in their process of the suit and every time it's very positive. But if there were things that they needed to tell me that we weren't gonna be able to do they told me upfront and they were very upfront about that which was great because I'm just someone who just likes to know what's going on. And so that was a great part of the process and I mean I just felt like they were definitely on my side. They were fighting for me and being a firm I guess that that is gonna do the research to give me the best chance and that was definitely John and his his whole crew. I mean everyone I talked to I felt was fully not knowledgeable about the process and answered any questions I needed to along the way. And so it was very helpful, it was really easy for me to kind of even just put that on the back burner say they've got that and I'm not even worried about that anymore. And I can definitely feel at ease now that I know that they're in charge and that they're on the case. To all the people I've worked with my brothers and sisters at Metro Nashville Police Department or any police officer that has ever been in an accident, this is exactly where I would come and this is who I recommend. I've recommended several officers to come here already because this is going to be your best chance to get all the information you need to know and it's not going to hurt you at all to ask. I mean and there's a possibility they might not be able to help you or someone might not be help you because who knows the other person might not have insurance or might not have any money or might have been in a stolen car. And so it's sometimes it's very hard to think you know there no way that there's gonna be a case but you never know. To anyone who has questions, any officer who's in an accident I would 100% recommend at least taking that first step to ask the question and coming here and asking that question. And asking John, saying John what can I do. And you're gonna get a very straightforward answer and they're gonna tell you if they can help you or they can't help you. And from my experience, they're gonna tell you that they can help you, so I would recommend any officer that's been in an accident to use this law firm."

"I was involved in an auto accident in 2017 and unfortunately 5 months after the accident the widely advertised tv attorney I had hired had done nothing ! This made an already stressful situation even worse and I didn’t know what to do or who to trust. I came across John’s book on the Internet and set up a meeting. John listened, emphasized, gave me a game plan and followed through. Josh Cantrell was my case manager and made me feel like he wasn’t just helping a client he was helping a friend. Josh’s responses were timely, courteous and knowledgeable. When Kirby took over during Josh’s leave I didn’t feel abandoned just more supported. This has been one of the most trying times of my life and I’m glad I hired John Griffith and his staff to aid me on this difficult journey. John is a top notch attorney and my interactions with all his staff reflects that!"

"I was sitting at a red light when I along with several others were hit from behind by a drunk driver, and was pushed through the red light. An anonymous previous client slipped me a note and suggested that I try Griffith Law Firm. I am so glad that I did because due to the accident, I did not have a car, but that didn't stop Mr. Griffith. He came to my house, sit down and talked to me. Griffith Law Firm went above and beyond the call of duty for me. They were courteous, sweet, loving, dependable, hard working, and always welcoming when I called & came by. Due to the Davidson County court system, my case was drawn out for over a year. Sydney kept in constant contact with me; and updated me constantly about what was going on which is a lot more than I can say about the insurance company or courts. I can truly say that the all of the employees at Griffith Law Firm know the law which makes them a force to be reckoned with, and definitely they are definitely who you need on your team when it comes to fighting for you. It's not about the money at all with them; they are about making sure that you are taken care of and that the insurance company does exactly what they need to do to cover your health bills as well as property damage. I am proud to say that Everyone at Griffith treated me like I was part of the family rather than just a client. He and Sydney have checked on me to see if I needed anything and to see how I was doing during this whole process. Sydney is such a sweet person. She has kept in contact with me the whole time, making phone calls, just handling all the business. I don't believe I would have been as calm or able to cope as well if God hadn't had blessed me with such loving people in my corner fighting for me especially Sidney. She is a real jewel. I would recommend Griffith Law Firm to anyone. They work as a team for you!! I can truly say that I am going to miss them. I hope that nothing like this happens again, but if it did, Griffith Law would definitely be the one that I called."

"We have known the Griffith Law Office for some time now and so when we got into our accident, it was no questions that they would represent us for our case. They communicated with us constantly and handle everything needed to be done in a timely manner. We are very pleased with the outcome of our case and what their office has done to make it happen. They were very professional and I would recommend anyone to them for any legal matter."

"As I stopped for a red light, a lady fell asleep at the wheel and hit me from behind. She then got confused, pressed the gas pedal instead of the brake and rammed me a second time. Among many other issues, I suffered a painful concussion causing excruciating light and sound sensitivity. I couldn't work for months. I eventually hired an attorney. I was not happy with what seemed like a lack of concern for my well-being. After several months, I knew if I didn't find a new attorney, I would deeply regret the final outcome of case. So, I literally prayed to God for "an excellent personal injury attorney." And when I searched my computer, John Griffith's video stood out.  The moment I met John, it was evident that he was extremely sharp, knew the law, no bull, down-to-earth and showed sincere empathy for my situation. It was a great pleasure working with Josh Cantrell, case manager. He was consistently kind, courteous, professional and on top of my case. My file was thick and I had a ton of medical bills. Although it's never a guarantee how much medical bills can be reduced, Josh did a remarkable job reducing bills. Sydney, their receptionist, is a smart cookie and a real sweetheart.  I highly recommend Griffith Law. I promise you will find an amazing group of people who genuinely care, have integrity, possess a valuable knowledge of the law and will fight for you!"

Client Review of GriffithLaw Laurie Driscoll "I was hit head-on in a high-speed car accident October 2017. I had multiple broken bones which required surgery, hospital stays and extensive medical bills. I am so grateful that I contacted Griffith Law! I met with John Griffith and Josh Cantrell, and they told me they would take care of everything... and they did! They dealt with the insurance companies' lawyers, the medical bills and everything in between. Josh kept in constant communication with me via phone and email, and went out of his way to be kind and understanding of my circumstances. It's been a long, difficult year for me (and my family), but with the help of Griffith Law we were able to reach a settlement and finally begin to put this whole traumatic experience behind us. Thank you so much Josh & John" Written by: Laurie Driscoll about GriffithLaw Date published: 11/20/2018 5/5stars Overall rating: ★★★★★ 5based on 1 reviews

Client Review of GriffithLaw​ "These guys were great! I was stopped when a car rear ended me at over 40 mph.  The other driver was texting, but he lied to police about it, and John and Josh proved he was lying.  I tried to work it out with the adjuster but they were so rude and disrespectful, and did not even offer my medical bills.  So I hired John and his firm and they worked for me and did a great job. They talked with me and told me exactly what was going to happen.   I could not have done this without them, and have already sent to them my cousin  who was hurt very badly in a truck wreck that was not his fault and dealing with the same insurance company. Thank you!"

Gina Estrada

“I have had 2 bad wrecks in the last 12 months, neither of which was my fault. John handled both of these cases for me and he is excellent. Not only did he do a great job, he (and Bethany) took a personal interest in me and made me feel like I was his most important client. I consider John more than just another good lawyer, he is a good friend. Thanks John!”
