Client

Mr. Gilmer represented me in 2019. He was very helpful to prepare the case, going to court with me & finally I won my case. He is a very good listener, he took time to discuss my case. He was available most of the time when I called. He called me back if he was busy at that time.

Excellent lawyer

Our company has known Atty Gilmer for more than 25 years. He helped us during our most difficult time in our business. He is very professional and super responsive in our court case. With his help and guidance, we're able to navigate our court case and survived the crisis.

Very Good Dude

Hey Mr. Gilmer is a great lawyer! WE won my case against ACS! As he said WE would. I Thank God & Thank you so very much for your hard work & dedication to me and my family. Thank you for believing in us & never letting us down. We really appreciate you for believing in us & taking on such a... very rough, long and difficult case, which I thought would never end! But, from the beginning Mr. George told me that he got my back and WE will Win this case. He gave us nothing but, great hopes and was always there and available via text, phone call &/or email for any questions and concerns We had. Mr. George was always pleasant, patient & very understanding. Even when I was feeling things wasn't working out in my favor fast enough. He always reassured me that everything will be ok and that WE got this. I would tell him, I know you got us Mr. G. ❤ Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts! You are very much appreciated! We highly recommend Our Lawyer Mr. George M. Gilmer!

Family Business

Mr. Gilmer was introduced through a friend after i explain to Mr.Gilmer about my family consulting services. When the client told me that i gave them the wrong information i called Mr. Gilmer for advice and he recommended to change the business from INC. to and LLC to provent any personal law suits ...from happening and he is right on point. He is very easy to work with also i have referred him to other clients as well.

Gilmer is an eloquent litigator

Since December of 2016 I was embroiled in a custody , and child support case that turned into my ex-husband filing a false acs report against me. I sought the services of George Gilmer and recounted my horrific history of domestic violence with my ex husband and how he was using the financial abuse o...f power and control to wear me down in collecting my child support, and using the system to revictimize me financially since he could not physically harm me anymore . He understands case law very well and was able to secure driving lessons and cost for a private therapist, as well as make him responsible for medical bills had I not secured his services I would have let the fear of seeing this man who tried to destroy my life swallow me whole. He is passionate about doing the right thing and seeing justice served. He also informed that I could sue my ex husband for filing a false report and so guess who I'm securing for that case ! He is a skillful litigator and ran circles around the opposing counsel. I'm so relieved that this is over . His staff is diligent and his process servers are as well serving men like my ex husband who refused to be served and was trying to play games with the system

After I got on the case and advocated on behalf of the parents the case was closed as unfounded and the parents were finally able to mourn the loss of their child in peace.

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.
