Gregory Garvin es un médico y abogado altamente capacitado y agresivo, que utiliza su experiencia en medicina para buscar justicia para las víctimas de mala praxis médica y lesiones personales. Sus años de experiencia en el campo de la medicina y el derecho le otorgan una perspectiva única, permitiéndole exigir a los proveedores de salud una compensación justa para quienes han sido perjudicados.
Su trayectoria académica comenzó en la Universidad Texas A&M, donde fue un orgulloso miembro del Corps of Cadets y se desempeñó como oficial ejecutivo de la Compañía P-2. Tras graduarse, asistió a la Universidad de Texas H.S.C. en San Antonio, donde obtuvo su título en medicina (M.D.), y posteriormente obtuvo una Maestría en Salud Pública (MPH) en el Medical College of Wisconsin. Luego, completó su residencia médica en la Universidad de Pensilvania. Después de años ejerciendo la medicina, Greg decidió hacer un cambio en su carrera y asistió a la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de Houston, donde obtuvo simultáneamente su Doctorado en Jurisprudencia (J.D.) y su Maestría en Derecho (LL.M.). Durante su tiempo en la facultad de derecho, perfeccionó sus habilidades en mediación, ganando un torneo de mediación interna, y posteriormente ha logrado resolver exitosamente casos como abogado y mediador. También asistió y sobresalió en un curso de preparación para juicios impartido por Baylor College of Law en St. Andrews, Escocia.
El trayecto de Greg a dedicarse al derecho y la mala praxis médica surgió de una tragedia personal: su propia madre fue víctima de mala praxis médica. Tras perder a su madre debido a un acto de negligencia médica, hizo el compromiso de luchar por aquellos que han sufrido la misma injusticia. Decidió abandonar su práctica médica y regresar a la universidad para convertirse en el litigante altamente capacitado y experimentado que es hoy.
Antes de unirse a Sorrels Law, Greg logró representar con éxito a clientes en casos de lesiones personales, responsabilidad de locales y muerte injusta, asegurando millones en acuerdos. También ha representado clientes en casos de incumplimiento de contrato, derecho familiar, sucesiones, accidentes automovilísticos y ferroviarios, obteniendo resultados óptimos. Además, ha participado en mediaciones previas al juicio, logrando acuerdos significativos sin necesidad de ir a juicio. Greg ha enfrentado y vencido a grandes corporaciones en la corte, demostrando que tiene la experiencia y la determinación para defender a sus clientes sin importar el tamaño o el poder de la oposición.
Gracias a su experiencia como médico, Greg comprende a fondo las obligaciones de los proveedores de salud para garantizar atención de calidad a sus pacientes. También ha sido testigo de cómo algunos pacientes no reciben la atención adecuada debido a errores y negligencia médica. Su perspectiva única, combinada con su experiencia, pasión y habilidades en derecho y medicina, le permite litigar con éxito incluso los casos de mala praxis médica más complejos.
