Another victory

Thank you again, George, for your help in securing our win in Essex Superior Court on Monday. I knew the jury wouldn't be more than a couple hours. Great presentation, direct, and closing. You're in the right profession.

Amazing experience and result!

The worst mistake I've ever made was getting involved in this case, but the best decision I made after it was coming to George! I had a larceny case of more than $250 which could have been considered a felony charge. Luckily I just received a magistrate's hearing and I knew I'd do everything I can t...o keep my record clean as it had been. I spent hours researching attorneys on this website, as well as on yelp and google. I even took note of their ratings, clients' reviews, and stats, etc. in a spreadsheet. After talking to about five attorneys who I seriously considered to hire, I decided to work with George. He was not only very professional but also personable and pleasant to work with throughout the process. I was informed of his plan and his progress. If he couldn't pick up my phone call, I'd receive his call or text message within an hour. Every time we discussed (including the initial consultation), I felt better and more knowledgeable, which led to being more confident and less worried of the process. He was very attentive, detail-oriented, and sensible. Those qualities, among other things, I believe are key to help people win in negotiations (and persuasion, in this case). Being a former prosecutor, he also understand the perspectives of the people now on the other side of his (ours). He seems to know when to be "the beast" and when not :) The case lasted for about ten minutes, was dropped and the court cost I had to pay was almost nothing. This was even better that I had expected. By the way, his fee was very reasonable too! Reviewing the whole process, I can't think of anything that could have been better!

Great lawyer

George Is a amazing attorney. He does not go in to court being buddy buddy with the DA. He is a amazing advocate for his clients. He represented me and I could not have been happier with the results. I've since recommended several ppl to him and everyone has been extremely happy with his service. Geo...rge goes above and beyond. To make sure his clients are well represented.

Dedicated and Talented: Court Error

Due to a court error (abuse of power, really), my son had a warrant issued for his arrest. We contacted George and he rearranged his day to clear this situation up. However, on the way to court my son was arrested. This proved to be a tricky situation because he was transported to Woburn District ...Court which is not the court that issued the warrant. George had to reroute to Woburn, where he filed an appearance, and fought to have my son released to us for transport to the issuing district. After tirelessly working with ADAs, clerks, and judges, the warrant was cleared and the case was dismissed before arraignment. This was a nightmare and due to George's knowledge of the law and inner workings of the legal system it was solved with the best possible outcome! I highly recommend hiring Attorney Papachristos. He is extremely dedicated to his clients and a very talented attorney.
