About George
Biography
I have practiced family law in Connecticut courts since 1984. I am client-centered in that I believe in fully informing my clients about strategy and tactics and being guided by my clients moving forward. I have tried many cases and motions throughout my career, and I also encourage consideration of the collaborative divorce model for the appropriate clients.
Active in education organizations including an independent school (trustee and president of King & Low-Heywood Thomas School for 8 years), public schools (member of Darien's Board of Education for 11 years) and currently as a director of the Norwalk Community College Foundation.
Loyal supporter of my schools King, Union College and Fordham Law, as well as my college fraternity, Psi Upsilon.

Divorce
Attorney Reilly represented me in a highly contentious matter. He advocated and defended me zealously and was a pleasure to work with. George is respected in the courthouse, highly intelligent and knows the law. He carried me through a very difficult period in my life and I could not be more grateful...
