This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Won't provide the care and attention that is required.

I hired George to represent me in a civil matter. I spent 20 minutes on the phone with him, providing a brief overview of my case. I moved forward with retaining his services for a hearing that was a month away from the date I hired him. He never spoke with me again until I showed up at the hearing..., and I had followed up with his office each week, wanting to get an update and understanding of the strategy for my case. The necessary response that was filed on my behalf was done at the very last minute. When I arrived at the hearing, he was already attending a virtual hearing for another client, utilizing his laptop, and continued to do so through my entire hearing. I dealt briefly with his paralegal, and when I expressed my dissatisfaction with the lack of care and attention to my case, she apologized and said they had a lot of other cases to deal with and she just did not have time to assist with mine. Wow! I did not prevail in my case but he readily took my money, and he told me at the hearing that when he agreed to take my case he knew he was already committed to hearings for the same day as my hearing, as if he was insinuating he was doing me a favor. I would avoid George if you want representation that will actually spend the time needed to understand your case and prepare appropriately. I will be filing a complaint with the State Bar of California.

GEORGEGEDULINLAWFIRM IS AMAZING (ABSOLUTELY)

Principal Attorney George Gedulin answered my phone call on a Saturday as dialed down a randomn list of attorneys. He is the only attorney whom answered and responded. From the start I was at what many would call a disadvantage. George Gedulin Law Firm has been so efficient, diligent and apt. I am on...ly a College educated member of the public but game recognize game. One phone call changed my life for the better...the SO MUCH BETTER.

DO NOT RECOMMEND

This lawyer is inexperienced and unprepared. He berated me in front of opposing counsel. He is only responsive when he wants money. I was extremely disappointed in his professionalism in every way. I would not recommend George Gedulin to ANYONE.

Inexperienced, will waste your time and your money

I hired George for a family law case and he wasted my resources, was disoriented and highly unproductive. I’m now in the process of re-doing the orders I paid him to do because he was so inept that I didn’t get an order for child support and child care. These are literally state laws and he over look...ed these details which ended up in a hearing with no resolution. DO NOT HIRE THIS ATTORNEY.

Highly Recommend George

My boyfriend needed help in a federal case and after speaking with a few defense attorneys we chose George. He was great at explaining exactly what was going on and what next steps would be. He was responsive and helpful throughout the process. After sentencing, I’m happy to report George was able to... get us to the best case scenario. If you or a loved one is ever in need of a defense attorney, definitely contact George.
