Client Reviews
In the very beginning, dealing with a Worker's Compensation injury was something I thought I could handle on my own. I found out very quickly that is not the case. You all have been in my corner from day one and I am so grateful for everything. I will never be able to repay your patience and kindness, thank you so much!!
Dealing with my workers compensation claim thru the companies insurance company was a truly de-humanizing experience. I turned to GTA for help and not only did they spend many hours pouring over my case, but they made me feel like I was a worthwhile case and empathized with my plight.
[They] were awesome with my case!! Very informative and always made sure I understood what was taking place!
Worked very hard to get the most money from the insurance companies involved in the case!!
The workers’ comp (insurance) group was treating me like I had done something wrong. I don’t think I’ve ever been treated so important and my voice mattered.
After my injury, I originally thought I didn’t need a lawyer for Worker’s Comp...After a few weeks I realized that dealing with Worker’s Comp wasn’t going to be easy. They were always completely honest and respectful. They always took the time to answer my questions. Always answering my calls and responding to my emails immediately.
I highly recommend Grimes Teich Anderson to everyone that's been hurt on the job and is facing problems with workers' comp. It's not easy doing it alone.

They do all the work for you and stand up for you when you don't understand the whole system.

Medical expenses, lost wages, retraining, and vocational rehabilitation may be covered under workers' compensation. In North Carolina, usually, your award for lost earnings will equal about two-thirds of your gross income, which is averaged from a period before the date of injury. South Carolina’s compensation for is based on either the degree of impairment of your injured body part, the amount of wages that you are able to earn after your accident, or whether you are unable to ever work again as a result of your injuries.

This could be a person, company, or manufacturer, other than your employer, that caused your work accident.
