At the Law Office of Bret Griffin, we fight relentlessly for victims of negligence, workplace accidents, and catastrophic injuries.

Why Houston Victims Trust Bret Griffin
Bret Griffin isn’t just another attorney; he’s a seasoned trial lawyer and former State District Judge who’s been on both sides of the courtroom. He knows how insurance companies think, how juries respond, and what it takes to win. Born and raised on the Texas Gulf Coast, Bret has deep roots in Houston’s working-class communities. His family’s legacy, from shipbuilding to medicine, reflects a lifelong commitment to service.
For over 25 years, Bret Griffin has represented Texans hurt in car crashes, industrial accidents, workplace injuries, and wrongful death cases. His sharp legal strategy and compassionate approach help clients recover physically, emotionally, and financially. Every client matters, and every case receives the attention it deserves.
As Houston continues to grow, so does the risk of injury. With millions commuting daily across I-10, 610, Beltway 8, and Highway 59, accidents can happen in an instant. From refineries in Pasadena and Baytown to construction zones downtown, we’re here to protect the people who keep Houston moving.
Bret’s firm is built on one simple belief: hard work wins results. He knows that justice doesn’t come from taking the easy route. It comes from thorough investigation, expert preparation, and fearless advocacy in court.
Understanding Texas Personal Injury Law
Texas law allows victims of negligence to hold wrongdoers accountable. But proving liability and recovering fair compensation can be difficult without a strong legal team. Insurance companies are often quick to offer low settlements, or none at all, especially when victims are unfamiliar with the process.
Under Texas Civil Practice & Remedies Code Chapter 33, compensation is based on comparative negligence, meaning your recovery can be reduced if you’re found partially at fault. That’s why it’s critical to have an attorney who knows how to gather evidence, counter false claims, and present your case effectively.
Bret Griffin and his team handle every aspect of your case, from accident investigation to trial. We secure medical records, interview witnesses, analyze crash data, and work with reconstruction experts when needed. Our goal is simple: to maximize your compensation for medical expenses, lost income, pain, and long-term care needs.
We also help clients understand Texas’s statute of limitations, most personal injury claims must be filed within two years of the accident. Waiting too long can mean losing your right to recovery. Our team ensures every deadline is met and every opportunity is pursued.
