Shoplifting, motorvehicle uninsured, unregistered and attached Plate...

On 6/21/2017, i was arrested and charges with shoplifting motorvehicle uninsured, unregisted and attached plate. I was going crazy searching for a good criminal lawyer to defent my case, because i feel like if i get convicted my life would be very limited. I hired two attormeys and af...ter meeting with them i felt like they were against me and my case would not go anywhere, so i fired both of them. So i go head i hired attormey George Papachristos soon after i read his review and spoke to him and felt like this is my guy, my lawyer that i felt 100% comfortable with.. First George would ask u, what do u want me to do with the case? And explained detail by detail what he can do for u. On 10/11/17 my case got dismissed and not responsible for those charges... Very Great lawyer

George Papachristos' winning stratedgy for my divorce/custody case

I am so very grateful for George Papachristos’ command of legal procedure, attention to detail and collaborative style. Within the first five minutes of Mr. Papachristos reviewing my divorce case, it was clear that his years as a prosecutor and experience with arbitration could resolve my custody ...battle which had nearly brought me to my breaking point. I am as well, indebted to George’s colleagues for their professional smarts, kindness and tireless work responding to my phone calls, e-mails and paperwork. Collectively, the Law Firm of George Papachristos provided the support and effective teamwork which created the winning strategy. I now have the peace of mind that only a righteous custody agreement can bring to a mother’s hope to serve ‘the best interest of her child’.

Attorney Papachristos

I retained Attorney Papachristos a few years ago due never ending frivolous probate issues with my ex spouse. It has been very stressful for my family and I. Attorney Papachristos is very knowledgeable and confident which are two characteristics an attorney should posess in order to be successful ...in court. When I hired Attorney Papachristos, I asked that I only be informed of pertinent matters and that we try to keep things as drama free as possible. Attorney Papachristos has delivered 100% on that front and in court. I would highly recommend Attorney Papachristos.

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!
