About

Mr. Graves has annually received an “AV” rating from Martindale-Hubbell which is the highest rating of legal ability and ethics awarded by the company. According to Martindale, “an AV certification mark is a significant rating accomplishment – a testament to the fact that a lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence.”  Since 2012, Mr. Graves has been repeatedly honored further by being recognized and included in the annual Best Lawyers, which is the oldest and most respected peer-reviewed publication in the legal profession.   The Best Lawyers lists of outstanding attorneys are compiled by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which tens of thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. If the votes for an attorney are positive enough for inclusion in Best Lawyers, that attorney must maintain those votes in subsequent polls to remain on the list for each edition. Lawyers are not permitted to pay any fee to participate in or be included on the list.  Mr. Graves was selected for inclusion in the 27th Edition of The Best Lawyers in America© for his work in Michigan Auto No-Fault Insurance Law.  Only a single lawyer in each practice area and community is honored with a "Lawyer of the Year" award. Recognition by Best Lawyers is based entirely on peer review and consensus opinion from the leading lawyers here in Michigan regarding the professional abilities of their colleagues. The attorney with the highest overall peer-feedback for a specific practice area and geographical region is recognized as “Lawyer of the Year”, which is the highest recognition awarded by Best Lawyers.

Page was always available to answer our questions and concerns. He was able to explain legal proceedings and terminology so that we could understand. His knowledge of the law was evident and his persistence and dedication to our case resulted in an agreeable settlement!

We have hired Page to pursue an injury claim associated with a vehicle accident on May 22, 2017. We explained Michigan's laws very thoroughly and we feel hopeful that we will get some compensation for the expense., pain, inconvenience and loss of time cause by the injuries.

Page was so helpful in my case. He was professional and knowledgable. Often answered my calls himself or returned them promptly. His staff kept me informed about the progress of my case. I would highly recommend Page.

Page guided me through this complicated process with knowledge and experience with the MI No Fault Law. He always came prepared and ready to fight for my daughter's rights under the law. Together we were able to accomplish what was needed for past, present, and future life time benefits for my daughter.

Page Graves has partnered with us at Munson Healthcare on our toughest Michigan PIP – no-fault auto claims for many years. Page’s knowledge of the law and diligent follow through have resolved cases for us with the highest regard to ethics and integrity. His expertise has benefited many patients as Munson partnered directly with Page at Smith & Johnson to confront the insurance and get the claim paid without cost to the patient. I highly recommend Page Graves to anyone needing a compassionate and easy to work with attorney to help them through a Michigan no-fault auto claim dispute.

Page has been the best part of my accident that almost took my life. He is open and honest with me about the legal process in dealing with my injuries from my accident. His follow through has been stellar and never once has he let me down. Page is approachable at almost all times. I've contacted him on the weekends, holidays and even when he has been on vacation. He has always taken the time for me. After six years of legal care, I consider Page a great attorney but more importantly to me, a good friend. I would recommend Page to anyone I know.
