Richard Grimes handled a case for my daughter recently and I recommend his office highly. He and his support staff including his exceptional paralegal Deborah were all so kind and helpful thoughout the whole process. Richard took her case despite a close deadline, and they really went above and beyond to get the case to a favorable resolution for my daughter. We are grateful, and highly recommend his office.

Everyone in this office has gone above and beyond to get our case settled fairly and quickly. They are extremely professional, and also down to earth; kind, concerned, and engaged in their relationships with their clients. There was no hype as seen by other personal injury lawyers (such as hammers, billions of dollars, promises of making you rich and the typical obnoxious behavior of attack dog lawyers). Richard, Julian, Deborah and the staff handled all of the craziness, which allowed us to concentrate on recovery.

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to Mr. Grimes and his wonderful staff for their exceptional support during a challenging time for my family. Having three little ones made our situation quite overwhelming, but Mr. Grimes truly made a difference. His thoughtfulness and dedication were evident in every interaction we had, which brought us much-needed relief. Mr. Grimes took the time to understand our unique needs, ensuring that we felt heard and supported throughout the process. His hard work did not go unnoticed, and it significantly eased our burdens. There simply isn’t another lawyer out there like him! His commitment to helping families like ours is truly commendable, and we are incredibly grateful for his assistance. Thank you once again, Mr. Grimes, for your unwavering dedication and hard work in resolving our situation so quickly. We are forever thankful!

Cause No. 03-1690-B/C: Kari Brashears, et al. vs. Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc., et al

Counsel for the Brashears family, along with counsel Richard W. Mithoff, in a lawsuit against Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc.

Confidential Amount Awarded

Cause No. AP-10-306: Deirdre Worley, individually and as Co-Administrator of the Estate of Richard Dale Worley, Sr. and Richard Dale Worley, II, individually and as Co-Administrator of the Estate of Richard Dale Worley, Sr. vs. Contract Transportation Systems Co., The Sherwin-Williams Co., and Francisco Sanchez, Jr.

Richard Worley Sr., a 63-year-old self-employed businessman, was driving a pickup truck towing a trailer when he collided with a tractor-trailer driven by Francisco Sanchez Jr., a Sherwin-Williams employee operating under Contract Transportation Systems. Worley died two hours after being transported to the hospital. Plaintiff (Worley’s family) alleged Sanchez failed to maintain a proper lookout and control his speed, leading to the collision. They also presented a witness who claimed Worley signaled properly before turning. Defense argued Worley’s negligence in loading hay impaired visibility, and that the intersection was inherently dangerous. Witnesses confirmed that Mr. Worley had signaled his turn well before the intersection, while evidence showed that Sanchez had passed another vehicle and then attempted to pass Worley within 100 feet of the intersection – actions in direct violation of state law and Sherwin-Williams’ own safety guidelines. Defense counsel argued that the intersection was inherently dangerous and that Mr. Worley’s hay load obstructed his view. The jury ultimately found Sanchez 90% liable and Worley 10% liable for the collision.
