I cannot say enough about the outstanding representation I received from Griff Shuler and his legal assistant, Sheila McDonald, in my workers’ compensation case. At the beginning of my workers’ compensation case, I was represented by another law firm. Unfortunately, I felt that the firm fell short when it came to handling my workers’ compensation claim and lacked the knowledge, experience, and persistence necessary to effectively fight for me against the insurance company. That experience cost me a great deal of time, frustration, and grief. Everything changed when Griff Shuler stepped in to handle my workers’ compensation case. From the moment Griff and Sheila took over, they were relentless, professional, responsive, and committed to protecting my rights and interests. They worked extremely hard on my behalf and never stopped pushing to make sure my concerns were heard and that I received the best possible outcome for my workers’ compensation claim. Their hard work ultimately resulted in a six-figure workers’ compensation settlement, along with approximately an additional $40k in back pay. Considering everything I had experienced before Griff took over my case, I am extremely grateful for the knowledge, dedication, persistence, and hard work that Griff and Sheila brought to my workers’ compensation claim. Sheila was incredibly helpful and supportive throughout the entire process, and Griff’s experience and determination made a tremendous difference. They did not simply handle my workers’ compensation case—they fought for me when I needed someone in my corner. I would absolutely recommend Griff Shuler and his team to anyone dealing with a workers’ compensation claim. My experience showed me how important it is to have an attorney who understands workers’ compensation law, knows how to deal with insurance companies, and is willing to relentlessly advocate for their client. Thank you, Griff and Sheila, for everything you did for me. I truly appreciate your hard work, dedication, and commitment to getting me the outcome I deserved. I would recommend Griff Shuler and Sheila McDonald without hesitation to anyone who needs strong representation in a workers’ compensation case.

I want to take a moment to express how much I truly appreciate the hard work, dedication, and care that Ayo put into handling my case. From the very beginning, Ayo was prompt, professional, and incredibly personable. She made communicating with her so easy and comfortable, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about helping me. Anytime I had a question or concern, she was always willing to listen and provided an answer without hesitation and in a very timely manner. Her professionalism and dedication went above and beyond what I ever expected. I am extremely grateful for the time, effort, patience, and compassion she showed throughout the entire process. Thank you again, Ayo, for everything you did for me. Your kindness, professionalism, and commitment truly made a difference, and I am very thankful to have had you handling my case.
From the very first time I hired griff and Shelia they made me feel very comfortable and helped me through my entire process from start to finish. Shelia made me feel like family from the first convo we had. They made sure I understood every thing and always checked up on me. Thank you guys for helping me the way you did. I will recommend these guys to anybody. They are the best. I thank yall for all the time and effort yall put in helping me through it all.
This law firm was recommended to me, and the attorney recommended was Benjamin Winikoff. Unfortunately, this turned out to be by far the worst experience I have ever had with a law firm. Bessie only spoke with me two times. When I called her back, I was told she was allegedly on vacation. I was then transferred to her manager, Stephanie, who, in my opinion, seemed completely inept and unable to understand what I was explaining about my case. Instead of actually listening to the details of my situation, she tried to tell me that North Carolina is an at-will state — something that, from my understanding and based on what I was explaining to her, had nothing to do with the specific circumstances of my case. I was trying to explain my situation, but I felt like I was not being heard or understood. Then Stephanie told me that Bessie had emailed me. However, later during our conversation, the information she repeated to me about that supposed email address was not accurate. I know what I received, and what she described was not the same thing. That left me extremely concerned about the communication and accuracy of the information I was being given. Then, rather than resolving my concerns, she abruptly ended the call. Shortly afterward, I received two letters declining my case. To make matters worse, one of those letters had what appeared to be a food-like substance on the back of it. Even something like that says a lot about the level of professionalism and attention to detail I experienced. The firm says, “Client recommendation is a very important source of new clients to us.” Well, based on my experience, I have to say this: I wouldn’t recommend this law firm to my worst enemy. Please do not waste your time assuming you will receive the professionalism, communication, and attention you deserve. My experience was the complete opposite. When someone reaches out to a law firm, they are often dealing with a serious and stressful situation. The very least you expect is to be listened to, treated with respect, and given clear and accurate communication. I did not receive that experience here. I walked away feeling dismissed, frustrated, and completely disappointed. They sowed very bad seeds toward me, and they will reap what they have sown. I strongly encourage anyone considering this law firm to do your research, ask questions, and consider all of your options before putting your case in their hands. Based on my personal experience, I would NEVER use this law firm again.
I can attest that Doug, Haley and the team have been incredibly good at communication throughout my case. My case has not yet been closed, but hopefully will be soon. It's good to know I have the knowledge, experience and expertise working for me with these great folks. They deal with these issues all the time and have a lot of understanding at my own frustration and lack of experience with accidents and the damage aftermath. Dealing with insurance companies seems to be impossible these days without good, competent legal representation. I am so very thankful that I was referred to them. These folks definitely seem to have a heart and passion for their work. UPDATE!! We have now ended our long journey, and I have to attest to the fact that Doug, Haley, Julie and all of the team have worked diligently to bring my situation to a very good resolution. You can have full faith and confidence in knowing that these folks are gonna fight for you. The insurance company is out to get out as cheaply And as quicklyas possible, but don’t let them do that to you. Be prepared by having the winning team of Daggett & Shuler on your side!
