Highly recommended!!

George and his team are absolutely incredible!! I worked with Lily Keller who represented my son in a legal matter. She is very knowledgeable and will do all she can to help. She is also very kind and has the patience of a saint. She got my son out of a bad situation and I will be forever grateful!!

Outstanding Criminal Attorney

Until a few years ago, I had never had any legal issues, aside from the occasional parking or speeding ticket. No one ever expects to be charged with a serious white-collar felony crime. When it happened, I was terrified and spent most of my time scouring the internet for answers, which only heighten...ed my anxiety. Then I was referred to George LaMarche at LaMarche Safranko Law. From the moment I met him, he put me at ease and I felt completely confident in his ability. Mr. LaMarche has a unique mix of compassion and reality. He never sugar-coated anything and explained every detail from start to finish so I knew what to expect. He and his team were always accessible no matter the question or concern, and often just hearing the answer got me off the ledge. Facing a serious criminal charge is a huge mountain, and you want the best to help you tackle it. George LaMarche and his team will provide you with everything you need to obtain the best possible outcome. Without their representation, I know the end result would have been entirely different,

Exceptional Respect for his expertise...

George cares for his clients best interest. He especially will take your case with only the best intentions. The stars aligned us together when I was wrongfully accused over the holidays. While caring for my mother in her home she was in hospice and I was approaching my son's heavenly anniversary. Be...ing a caregiver for our loved ones is the utmost torture on the heart and George alleviated this added stressed having the case fully dismissed within two months of the charges. I have tremendous respect for his professionalism and dignity. He truly cares and is committed.

My Champion, My Friend

Grateful, Relieved and Relaxed. I could say more but this is how I felt after getting help from George LaMarche on several occassions with my legal battles. Its comforting to have someone like him to turn to. He displayed an ability to balance compassion for my problems with straightforwardness on th...e facts. I respect that, and hope to have him in my corner for years to come.
