Christine Griggs Narcisse

My name is Christine Griggs Narcisse. I have been a lawyer since 1991, but have been employed in the field of workers' compensation since 1981, and in Massachusetts since 1984. I handled WC claims for Liberty Mutual as an adjuster, claims supervisor and home office examiner for over 8 years, and then worked for 2 years as a law clerk handling conciliation appearances for Travelers. Since graduating from Suffolk University Law School I have represented injured workers exclusively, handling their workers' compensation claims at the Department of Industrial Accidents. I chose McGuire & McGuire to work for over 27 years ago because I believed that the firm was the best in its field in Massachusetts, and I still believe that to be true. I wanted to join the best because I too am passionate about my representation, and understand the devistating effect an injury can have on an individual and their family. I have the experience to make a difference. Since coming to McGuire & McGuire I have also developed an expertise in the filing of Accidental Disability Retirement applications for public employees permanently injured in the performance of their duties. I therefore frequently appear before various retirement boards around the Commonwealth, as well as before the Division of Administrative Law Appeals.
