Extraordinary service with fantastic results. Highly Recommended

In an extremely difficult and complex claim, Charlotte Grist enabled us to understand the complicated details and assisted us in developing a strategy that allowed us to prevail. The claim had the potential of becoming one of the largest against our company and Charlotte, by her quick response to ev...ery change and constant communication, made it possible for us to focus on our business, not the case. We highly recommend her and will continue use Charlotte Grist in any Workers Compensation case we may face in the future.

Charlotte Grist

I would definitely recommend Charlotte Grist for any type of Industrial Injury claim. We hired Ms. Grist to help us fight a claim that was obviously not legitimate, but very hard to prove. She was very thorough in gathering the evidence we needed to prove that the claimant was lying. This included... police, medical, and employee related data. She is very knowledgeable in legal, medical, and industrial injury matters. She is professional at all times. She is pleasant to work with and understanding of our situation. In the end, we won the case, thanks to her hard work. I would have recommended her even if we had not won, due to the fact that she did everything possible to ensure a winning outcome.

Ms.Grist is a must

My opinion of Lawyers would have been likened to my opinion of mosquitos...noisy,pesky, and out for blood...Charlotte changed this....She came into our lives and brought clarity to situations that were beyond me. I own and operate a business where there is opportunity for people, if they are incline...d to do so, to take advantage of the employer. This is made easier for them by the politics that govern our state. Charlotte levels the playing field; aggressive and relentless, but compassionate. Her passion for justice is refreshing. Charlotte assisted us through some difficult situations that I would not wish upon anyone. She stood up to THE MAN and was relentless in her pursuit of cutting the red tape. It is nice to know that there are people like Charlotte Gist out there who will stand up for what is right. Charlotte is one of those people that you want on your side when you confront lifes difficult situations.

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.
