For attorney John Griffith, its all about creating relationships. And for the past 13 years, John has relied on his ability to form these important relationships with clients, juries, peers, and the community to help him successfully represent personal injury victims across Middle Tennessee.
Starting his career as an insurance claims adjuster, he saw how his decisions could impact peoples lives positively or negatively after they've been seriously injured by someone else's carelessness. That's when he began to realize the frustration of working for insurance companies, whose main products are promises in exchange for money and those promises of coverage were broken far too often. As a result, John decided to focus on combating those broken promises by attending law school.
Now, as an experienced personal injury lawyer, he fights on behalf of deserving people who have been been treated unfairly by those same insurance companies. And for John, his clients are more than a case number, which is why he stays in touch with many of them. In fact, he regularly calls former clients to simply catch up and see how they're doing. In addition to his law practice, John is committed to advancing the cause of his clients by serving as the legislative chair for the Tennessee Association for Justice.
He's also been elected by his peers to serve on the associations board of governors each year since 2008. In 2012, he was selected to attend the prestigious Trial Lawyers College, which is conducted by Gerry Spence, one of the most unbeatable and prestigious lawyers in U.S. history. And in 2013, John was selected by his peers as the Best of the Baran award that recognizes Tennessee's top lawyers and corporate counsel. The American Association for Justice listed John as one of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers in 2008 and 2009. He's also a member of the Tennessee Bar Association, the Nashville Bar Association, and the American Association for Justice.

We had the pleasure of working with Audrey and Josh at Griffith Law after our case was transferred to them due to our previous lawyers closure and honestly, it was the best thing that could have happened. From day one, Audrey and Josh made what could have been a stressful situation feel simple, organized, and low-stress.
They went above and beyond every step of the waypreparing, communicating clearly, and keeping everything perfectly organized so we always felt supported and confident. Even with us being hundreds of miles away, they made the entire process feel seamless.
Our case is now officially closed with an outcome that truly benefits our family, and we could not be more grateful. Whether youre local to Tennessee or out of state like we were, we highly recommend Griffith Law. Audrey and Josh were exceptional, and we appreciate everything they did for us!

When I was going through so much pain after my car incident, Nathan was there for me in a way Ill never forget. He listened without judgment, checked on me constantly, and made sure I never felt alone. His support brought me comfort during one of the hardest moments of my life, and Im truly grateful for everything he did.

This law firm is truly the best in the state for personal injury. I actually started with a different attorney and he didnt understand the nuances of being involved in litigation of an accident caused by a state employee. I had to let that attorney go.
We searched the state to find the right one and ended up going with John Griffith, even though their offices are 4 hours away from where we live.
I could not be happier with the results. John personally worked my case. He was kind, informative and helpful, as was his assistant Audrey. My case has resolved in my favor more quickly than any case o have ever seen.
10/10 recommend this law firm.

Blessed doesnt even begin to explain the how grateful I am for this firm. I was in an accident and I was very unsure of pursuing because of wait times, communication issues, and other things. Hands down, Jenny and Ryan absolutely washed those thoughts away immediately. They were extremely kind, listened to all my questions, gave consistent updates, and kept me well informed of the process to ensure my comfortability. If this team represents the firm as whole, Griffith Law is the gold standard for law firms.

Griffith Law went above and beyond for my family and I during my entire journey. I was injured in a crash, sought treatment, and waited numerous years for a resolution. Griffith Law, especially Josh and Nathan, were supportive and helpful in my ordeal. They provided timely updates and developments about my situation and constantly asked if they could help me in any way. My favorite aspect of interacting with Griffith Law is the familial atmosphere they cultivate with their clients. Im thankful to Griffith Law for advocating and supporting my cause. At times one can feel hopeless after trauma. Griffith Law is a provider of hope and a sense of calm. Thank you Griffith Law!

Griffith law is so wonderful! The people there are so caring and you dont feel like just a client. You feel truly cared about and looked after with them. They had helped me out with a wreck I had and went above and beyond to help out with everything. You never expect to be in a wreck and even though everything can be overwhelming, they make the entire process of help so easy! I am so thankful for them and would recommend them to anyone needing help be guided from an accident!

Josh and the team were phenomenal to work with. They were patient in explaining the process and even do alot of education to help you be comfortable during that process and anytime i had a question or concern he was prompt in getting back to me. I've been in worse accidents and gotten less in compensation, I'll never use another attorney for an accident claim. Their book of the top 10 mistakes a client makes after an accident as a life saver!

When I had my accident I was completely loss on my next steps for representation. I was almost to go to the usual commercial law firms that you see on TV. However I was referred to check out Griffith Law Firm and it was the best decision ever! Unlike the other firms, Griffith invest all of their time into their most valuable person, you the client. Consistent communication with beneficial recommendations throughout my entire injury law suit. Meetings were set based on my time schedule and youre given the best customer service. After they fought for me I was RIGHTLY compensated. My guy Attorney Josh Cantrell was awesome! I highly recommend Griffith Law firm! Youll be glad to have them on your side!
