I am a North Carolina Board Certified Workers' Compensation Specialist and have been an attorney in North Carolina for more than 40 years. My partner S. Janson Grimes, now retired, and I founded the law firm, Grimes and Teich, in 1979. With the later addition of attorney Scott M. Anderson, we became Grimes Teich Anderson LLP. To help best serve our clients, our North Carolina and South Carolina personal injury and disability firm has 8 offices in the mountains and the upstate. Our mission has always been to help protect the rights of the injured whether they have been hurt or killed on the job, in car wrecks or in other types of accidents, or because of bad drugs and defective products. We represent clients with social security disability claims and clients with employment law issues including, but not limited to, discrimination and FMLA concerns. Grimes Teich Anderson also represents veterans with veterans' law issues.
