Only use if you have NO other alternatives

The reviews of others here which indicates a poor showing, I must concur. My direct and personal experience of Mr. Griffin III and his team were less than desirable. Poor communication skills i.e. not easily reached, inability to state and support facts in court; inability to cross exam. ( inabili...ty here = meager and ineffective) . That said my time with Mr. Griffin III was fruitless, costly and filled with angst of not having a proactive lawyer at hand. I paid the price. I did NOT do my due diligence on Mr. Griffin's skill sets so I got to take 80% of the blame for my own self inflicted hot foot of hiring below the competence line.

Not an attentive lawyer does not seem to really do his job. This is my opinion

I was involved in a divorce action a couple of years ago as my wife had assaulted me and was put out of the house. Unfortunately, the judge let my wife right back in 2 weeks later and because of my financial situation having children, I didn't feel as if I had any other app but to stay, to make sure ...they had a good roof over their head. Even though their mother has been totally abusive, things finally came to a head after 2 years of me. Sleeping on a sofa and having my wife. Bang and slam dishes everywhere. Keep in mind The police have been called to my house on many occasions, mostly by me or neighbors hearing her slam. The door not letting me leave. There's also an active investigation where she threatened my son.Let's just say with a very sharp utensil, some might say, even used to cut steaks with holding it within an inch from his stomach, saying she was going to kill him. This has all been filed in a police report. So I don't think there's anything that I can't say, as it's a matter of public record. The main point of this diatribe is that Mr. Griffith has not since released or told his client to send any kind of child support. She's been out of the house since October 27th. We are now on November the fifth I know. Most people like to be able to wipe their butt or have shampoo for their hair. Just a few of the basic routine items that everyone needs yet. He chooses not to return phone calls, text emails etcetera. So it's my understanding that these are public forums and I'm able to go on and write reviews of my own opinion again. I'm not a lawyer, but I can state what I know. And I know my experiences with this man. Beware, beware, beware. I would not hire this man not to collect garbage, not to clean a bathroom, not to do anything, as he seems to want to be a total money grabber.

Knowledgeable, friendly, and not pressing

I needed consultation abut a will, probate, and trust and I think I received very good advice. Mr. Griffin was kind and informative but not pressing me to buy additional services. That made me feel very comfortable during the consultation and I certainly will hire this attorney without hesitation.

My Lawyer is . . . My Lawyer for Life!

He has evaluated a very delicate case and advised me in regards actions to obtain the best outcome for me and my family. I have consulted on a case in regards to a wrongful death/accidental. He is insightful, smart, detailed, and most important empathetic and kind. I know we will be victorious.
