Helped Negotiate Settlement

George helped me negotiate a separation agreement. He did a good job. I'd recommend speaking with him. He called Inge like they were and had informed me why things were happening the way they were. I would recommend putting him on your short list. As with anything, it's always good to talk to more th...an one possible representative.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
