About Derick
Derick Grandoit studied political science and government as an undergraduate before turning to law. He earned a B.S. from Florida State University and later attended Texas Southern University Thurgood Marshall School of Law, where he completed his J.D. His academic path combined an interest in public affairs with legal training. That combination informed his approach to casework and client conversations early in his legal career.
After law school Grandoit moved into personal injury practice. He joined Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers as an associate. In that role he learned the mechanics of plaintiff-side litigation: investigating claims, taking depositions, drafting motions and engaging in settlement talks. He spent time in the office and in the field. He built practical skills handling evidence and preparing cases for trial when necessary.
At the firm Grandoit handles a range of injury matters. He works on cases arising from motor vehicle collisions and premises liability incidents. He also assists on claims involving serious and catastrophic injuries, coordinating with medical providers and experts. His caseload requires close attention to medical records, timelines and legal deadlines. He prepares pleadings, manages discovery and advocates for clients at mediation and in court.
Grandoit’s work style is straightforward. He breaks complex medical and legal issues into clear steps. He briefs clients on options and procedural stages so they can make informed decisions. He collaborates with colleagues in the Boston and Taunton offices of Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers on strategy and trial preparation. That collaboration extends to investigators, expert witnesses and treating physicians who play roles in proving damages and liability.
Outside the courtroom he spends time reviewing evolving case law and statutes that affect personal injury practice. He applies those developments to client matters and case strategy. Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparing files and responsive in client communications. He is based in the firm’s Boston and Taunton offices and continues to represent people who have been injured, focusing on recovering compensation for physical and financial harms resulting from accidents and incidents in 2026.
