Our SUV was T-boned and totaled, and my husband and I both suffered serious injuries. I called Michael Grife, and I cannot say enough about him. He took over all of the extremely stressful contact with the insurance companies and doctors, and directed us to very good doctors. He has been so supportive throughout our entire ordeal — more like family than an attorney. He settled our case and we received the maximum settlement, making an unbearable situation much easier to go through.

Mike helped me through a long tedious case that most attorneys turned away. He got amazing result and I couldn't have asked for anything more. Mike did everything from making sure I got the correct medical attention to personally picking me up to come to his office for my deposition. I now not only have a great attorney in South Florida, but also a great friend.

Michael, we wish to thank you for all you have done for us. The personal attention given to every situation you handled for us is way beyond what we expected — you feel like more a friend than an attorney. You handled my slip and fall with complete professionalism, staying in touch as if it was your biggest case, even though it was small compared to the cases you were handling at the time. Yet again you were there for us with friendship and a professional demeanor that was outstanding.
