Gray Broughton

I’ve spent my entire career helping people rebuild after their darkest moments. I learned early—first as a JAG officer in Iraq, Korea, and Germany, and later as a trial lawyer in Virginia—that when everything feels overwhelming, people need someone who will dig in, uncover the truth, and fight for them until the job is done.My approach today comes from those experiences and from the unexpected business education I got running Jimmy John’s franchises while practicing law. That chapter taught me the principle I rely on every day: if you can’t measure it, you can’t manage it.In my firm, we track everything—case timelines, settlement patterns, referral sources. We do it not to replace judgment, but to sharpen it. Numbers give you confidence. Instinct tells you which battles to fight. That combination has helped our team secure meaningful results for clients, including:- $20,000,000 verdict for a thirteen-year-old boy was was physically abused at a psychiatric residential treatment facility.- $10,000,000 settlement for a seven-year-old boy who suffered a traumatic brain injury and lost his leg in a collision. $2,700,000 settlement for a woman with a brain injury, broken femur, and torn knee ligaments after a head-on crash.- $1,350,000 settlement for a woman with prolapsed cervical and lumbar discs and a mild TBI after being rear-ended by a commercial vehicle.- $1,250,000 policy-limits settlement for an attorney who sustained a traumatic brain injury in a collision.- $927,425 policy-limits settlement for a tractor-trailer driver with severe head, neck, and back injuries after being rear-ended at 70 mph.- $750,000 settlement for an 83-year-old woman who broke her shoulder and hip in a restaurant fall.Clients describe what we strive for every day:“Gray kept me informed and even negotiated a 50% medical bill reduction.” — Sean P.“Gray resolved my case in one month with an excellent settlement.” — Nathan T.“Excellent customer service.
