All that needs to be said is, "Thank You, Mr. Griffin."I live in New York and got my first and only ticket in Rhode Island on vacation. He has made it easy to navigate the RI judicial system, answered all my crazy questions ( I probably asked every twice) He gave me printed out information when asked, and has answered all of my calls or texts, reduced my penalties, and made all of this giant mistake I made a whole lot easier.If I'm ever back in Rhode Island, Mr. Griffin, I'd like to buy you a Stuffie (one of those big fat Quohogue clam things that you get by the beach)I probably could have stopped at " Thank you, Mr. Griffin"read more

Dan represented my case in a clear and professional manner. His knowledge of the judicial system helped preserve my career and livelihood. He quited my fears that my job was over, and got my penalties down significantly. Over a year later this reared its ugly head again, and I had to contact Dan and the mater was handled within a few hours, allowing me continue on with my life. I would choose Dan again to represent me in any legal matters I have. He really knows what he is doing.read more

I cannot express enough gratitude and admiration for Dan Griffin at Griffin Law, who represented my brother in a recent criminal case that went to trial. Dan’s dedication, expertise, and unwavering commitment to justice resulted in a remarkable outcome: He was acquitted of all charges.From the very first consultation, I knew we were in capable hands. Dan took the time to thoroughly understand the nuances of the case, leaving no stone unturned in their pursuit of the truth. His meticulous preparation and attention to detail were evident throughout the legal process, assuring us that we received the utmost care.One of the most remarkable aspects of working with Dan was his unwavering support and frequent communication. He kept us informed every step of the way, patiently explaining the intricacies of the legal system and providing reassurance during an incredibly stressful time for me and my family.During the trial, his courtroom expertise was truly impressive. His command of the law, persuasive arguments, and strategic thinking were instrumental in securing the acquittal. He skillfully cross-examined witnesses, presented compelling evidence, and convinced the judge of my brother’s innocence.What sets Dan apart is not only his legal prowess but also his genuine compassion for their clients. He treated us respectfully and empathically, offering emotional support and legal guidance. This combination of legal expertise and compassionate advocacy was invaluable throughout the process.I wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need of outstanding legal representation. If you face a challenging legal situation, rest assured that Dan will fight tirelessly on your behalf.Thank you, Dan, for giving my brother a second chance. Your dedication and expertise are unparalleled, and I am forever grateful for the exceptional representation you provided in my time of need.read more

i hired dan to represent me on a felony charge. it was a awful experience. not only did i end up spending a full day and night in JAIL after taking his advice... but the next day he "couldnt find the proper paperwork" which delayed my release 4 hrs! i was trying to have a nco lifted and was denied on 4 seperate occassions... solely due to the fact that Dan was not prepared and did not familiarize himself with the case and/or people involved at all. i hired a different lawyer and he had the nco in progress to be lifted after just the FIRST court date. dan refunded me some of what i paid him.. .thanks for that... but if anything... i spent time in jail that i shouldnt have. and i would have appreiated ALL of my money back since you did NOTHING for me besides cost me time. hoping nobody else has an experience like thisread more

I first met Dan after letting go of other legal representation and needed help with my case. Dan was instantly reassuring and most importantly he listened and cared. He is very professional and honest. Tells you right up front how things are, possible options and outcomes. Doesn’t make any false promises and is very responsive. Responds quickly to texts and phone calls, which is very reassuring when you are facing charges . Dan works quickly yet super efficiently and effectively. Within just a couple days he made more progress in my case then prior representation made in months and he did so at a fraction of the cost. I hope no-one finds themselves in the same situation as I was in but if you do I highly suggest you make the right decision and go with Dan and save yourself time and quite possibly your future.read more
