Follow up

I wrote a very positive review about George Papachristos back in September 2018. I heard the official results of my case today. He won as expected, and thanks to Mr. Papachristos's cross examining skills and ability to clearly discern the most complicated situations, the agency in question is now bei...ng reviewed by the state commissioner as to their actions during my case. Once again, thank you George and Staff for the best experience out of a dark situation. It is over. We won. You rock!

Caring, reassuring, and effective

I retained George's services after reading the reviews on this site, which looked nothing short of phenomenal. He was as good as people said he'd be, and then some. The allegations I was facing put me under a great deal of stress. George was a great help from the beginning. Every time I talked to... him I was more confident despite him working to keep my expectations conservative. He's a good listener, and was immensely supportive throughout the whole process. His skills as an attorney were also fantastic. It was easy to talk to him, and he knew what questions to ask to bring out facts I might otherwise have overlooked. And his experience as a DA proved indispensable, as he was able to give me valuable insight into what was likely going on on the prosecution's end. I can't recommend him enough. You won't go wrong with George.

The Lebron James of Criminal Law

I highly recommend this lawyer for any criminal case or any case for that matter. I personally hired him to help me with a couple of criminal cases and he ended up assisting me in another matter as well. His firm also does family law and his legal partner Mary Ellen was super helpful for any family l...aw questions I had. They’re both great- friendly and professional. I come from a family of lawyers so I’m very picky about who represents me and needless to say, I was not disappointed. Because of his background as a DA, George has a really great perspective and understanding of how the court system works. There will never be a time where he will say, “I’m too busy for you”. He answered every call and every question I had. super professional and organized. Great memory. I hate having to tell people things more than once and with George, I need not worry. The other thing that I liked about GP is that although he carries himself with a very professional demeanor, he still manages a certain level of empathy and compassion that is imperative with the type of cases I had. I never felt judged by him or looked down upon- a rarity in this system. Very refreshing to see someone with post nominals attached to their name act like a human being who cares. I think that it is for this reason, the fact that he is passionate about what he does, that my cases ended up getting resolved In the best way possible. I was so discouraged and hopeless before having him represent me. The counsel I had prior to hiring George wanted me to “plead out” and told me that I would never get out of this situation without destroying my record or worse, doing jail time. Upon hiring George, he remained calm and optimistic whilst still being a realist. He never made me extravagant promises, but he always said he would do the best he could do and he did so without question. In fact, the outcome of all 3 cases was better than I could have even imagined. Also, he’s just as good looking in person as he is in his photo online! Also a rarity in this world. I figured that if I’m paying for legal services and facing jail time, I might as well get a good looking lawyer. Was not disappointed lol

Lucky

My family was lucky to have found Attorney Papachristos, we couldn't have asked for a better outcome. My son was involved in a case that had been open for over a year. With his case being scheduled for trial I began the search for an experienced defense attorney. After meeting George for the first... time I walked out of his office knowing my son had the best representation and was in safe hands. Attorney Papachistors immediately went to work on my son case. My son and I arrived at his next court date expecting to be leaving the courthouse with a future trial date being set. Three hours later the judge was dismissing the case. After 15 months, multiple court dates, and a great deal of stress George had the case dismissed in three hours. Watching George do his job was a site to see. It was evident all of his years as a prosecutor prepared him to be an exceptional defense attorney. Likewise you could see George had a great deal of respect from his peers and colleagues at the Quincy Court. It honestly felt as if we were being represented by a family member. It was clear George genuinely cared about my son's well being. Throughout the process he was understanding, polite, responsive, caring, prepared, just a complete professional. Thank you George
