Great attorney very helpful

George was extremely helpful with my case. He was available via text email and phone much of the time and provided much feedback and advice during my case. I recommend him as an attorney to anyone liking for family and divorce lawyer. Thank you George for all your help.

Great Attorney

I used George Gilmer for a divorce consultation. He was very straight forward with me and told me upfront about the worst case scenario that could play out in court. I had 3 meetings with him for 30 minutes and he didn't charge me. He was very honest and never asked for a dime. I didn't pursue the di...vorce and did counseling that he recommended and me and my wife are still married 4 years later.

Timely Divorce

I found George Gilmer after some searching online. I needed a divorce and an ammendment and he helped me with both (the person I divorced is currently incarcerated so, naturally, I was nervous as to how this would pan out without any legal help). The process was painless. His office staff was very kn...owledgeable as well. My ex-husband was served the papers in October of 2017, and the divorce was granted by the judge on 3/2018. I would definetly recommend him.

Straightforward and Helpful

I am currently going through a divorce. My lawyer was giving me advice that I questioned and I needed to get a second opinion. At no charge, George came through for me. He was very helpful in reassuring me that my lawyer was indeed giving me good advice and looking out for my best interests. I am sur...prised to see that a few reviews on this site only give him one star. My experience was very positive.

Matter of IL and JL

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.

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.
