In 1995, Griff graduated from Kent State University with a degree in Political Science. He then went on to law school at the University of Dayton School of Law and graduated in 1998.
In 2000, Griff became licensed to practice law in Ohio and federal court. He takes full advantage of the reach of his license with an eagerness to practice any county in the state. Traveling throughout Ohio and spending a significant amount of time in Court, he often jokes that his main office is his car and his office line is his cell phone.
Griff will proudly tell you that he has defended clients in over 100 criminal jury trials. He is not afraid to go to trial for any of his clients. For his service to his clients, Griff was presented an award by Montgomery County Common Pleas Court. He also mentors younger, less experienced attorneys by having them sit second chair during his trials. While his main focus is criminal defense, he also represents clients in juvenile delinquency, custody, divorce, child support, traffic, estate, and civil matters.
Early in his career, Griff was in solo practice providing a very personal, hands-on level of service with 24/7 availability. Even as his practice has expanded, he continues to provide that same level of service and availability.
Between 2010 and 2014, Griff joined the firm of Findlay, Johnson & Beard in Xenia as a partner. Joining the team of attorneys there helped him advance and expand his practice in new directions.
In 2014, Griff was a founding partner of Nowicki & Vonderwell. In 4 years, that firm expanded from 3 attorneys to 5. At one point, the firm operated 2 offices in Dayton and Springfield. Early in 2018, Nowicki & Vonderwell consolidated to one office in Springfield, Ohio.
In September of 2018, a reorganization of the firm occurred and Griff and Tyler Starline were joined by new partners Samantha Berkhofer and Eric Sommer. The former associates have now become partners who are dedicated to delivering the same level of representation that our clients have come to expect and appreciate.

Mr. Nowicki provided excellent service for a member of our family which resulted in a much better outcome than we had expected. He took the case with no hesitation and in a very timely manner. Would recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney, you won't regret your decision.
