Great Firm

When I was referred to Grey & Grey, I had gotten hurt on the job and had elbow surgery. The attorneys and staff were so helpful in getting me the benefits I needed. A few years after that I became very sick and was in hardship as I was unable to work. I called Grey & Grey and they did an outstandin...g job helping my family. The attorneys, as well as the staff have a kind professional attitude, full of compassion and concern. We found them to be complete professionals in the handling of both our Workers' Compensation claims and our Social Security claim. They kept us informed on every aspect of the claim from start to finish. It was incredible how fast they worked and in a few short months I was approved for Social Security Disability. We would definitely refer family and friends to their firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
