Outstanding Job

Trina accepted my case after a prior attorney left the practice. She did a great job evaluating my case and negotiated an extremely favorable resolution. She communicated with me during every step of the process! I highly recommend Trina for her excellent representation!

Posted by Sulaiman | November 16, 2021 | Hired Attorney

Excellent service.

I will recommend her again and again and again, absolute one of the best and dedicated lawyer have ever worked with. If by chance I become the Governor or president I will make her Attorney general in any state, because of her honesty and transparency.

Excellent Representation

I thoroughly enjoyed working with Trina to represent me during my trial process. She was very helpful and knowledgeable and was able to get my charges completely dismissed. She did a great job communicating with me during the whole process even through this crazy Covid period. I would definitely reco...mmend her to anyone needing an attorney for an alcohol related offense.

Great Attorney

Trina was a great Attorney for me. She was very attentive, knowledgeable, always able to be reached and she would answer any question that I had. I would recommend her to anyone needing help.

Above and beyond

Mrs. Griffiths handled my case in a very professional manner and achieved a result that I was happy with. More than that however, she took the time to listen to all of my concerns and really put my mind at ease in a very stressful situation.

"I had the honor and pleasure of working with Trina at the Cobb County Solicitor General office for approximately two years. She was a prosecutor that zealously represented the State within the ethical bounds of the law. For the past eight years, Trina and I have been fellow DUI defense attorneys in the metro Atlanta. Trina works diligently on her cases and has gotten outstanding results for her clients in the metro Atlanta area. She has a great rapport with clients, judges, prosecutors and fellow defense attorneys. She has recently opened her own practice in Cobb County. I would highly recommend her for anyone seeking representation on a difficult DUI case."

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.

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.
