A Lifeline After My Workplace Injury

After a severe back injury at work left me unable to provide for my family, I was overwhelmed by the workers' compensation process. Henry Teich was recommended to me, and I now understand why he was recently honored as Lawyer of the Year in this field. With over 40 years of practice in Asheville, his deep expertise was immediately evident. He combined sharp legal strategy with genuine compassion, a quality I suspect stems from his background in psychology. He patiently explained every step, managed all communications with the insurance company, and secured a settlement that truly accounted for my long-term needs. Grimes Teich Anderson LLP provided exceptional support, but it was Mr. Teich's personal dedication that made the critical difference.
