Extremely up front and honest lawyer. Tells you realistic things as opposed to just what you want to hear. Keeps you ground in reality but will still make a valid effort to reach your achieved goal. I would hire him again!!

After starting our case with a different attorney, unfortunately, he got sick and sold his firm. TJ was given our case, along with SEVERAL others, on top of all the other cases he was already working on. All of this was in the beginning COVID as well! TJ did a great job navigating our case given the circumstances. I am very pleased with his knowledge, experience, and cut-to-the-chase personality. I would definitely recommend TJ, as well as use him again!

TJ Grimaldi was recommended to me immediately after I was involved in a car accident on my way to work. Before I left the accident scene, TJ had already accepted my phone call personally and made an appointment to see me as soon as I had completed the reports needed. I was very pleased with his response and impressed during our appointment. We discussed options that would take place for treatment, vehicle replacement, and then finally settlement. During my entire process, TJ always personally took my calls which was very comforting during this stressful time. He was always prompt with advice when needed. TJ is an advocate I will always keep available for legal services needed. Thank you TJ for your dedication and support for my case from beginning to end.

Not only was TJ professional. When nobody would take my case he did and helped me tremendously. We won the case and if I ever needed another lawyer hands down it would be him.

TJ has been by my side for over 7 years helping me navigate through the craziness of the court system. He is knowledgeable, reliable and he gets results. I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer. He truly listens, understands and does what is best for his clients. I highly recommend TJ and have no doubt you will be as satisfied as I am.
