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!!

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.

NOT ALL HEROES WEAR CAPES...Apparently they wear suits

Mr. Lamarche took what felt like 2000 pounds of stress off the shoulders of my family and I. Even doing that with such compassion and intelligence throughout his time in the courtroom. For that, I will forever remember and recommend his service to those I care most. I know what you are thinking, no w...e are not being paid for this review my husband and I are genuine customers. When we left that courtroom everyone in that room was in awe of how kindly and truthfully he won my case. People literally went out of their way to ask for his card to give you a better idea. He was prepared with what looked like a 5-inch binder and it really showed during our hearing. He did not worry about his time or his other meetings that day that unfortunately had to be rescheduled. He was focused, charming, and most importantly you can feel he is a lawyer that loves and is good at what he does. The whole time he reassured my husband to keep his hopes high and that he will be there for us while giving us realistic scenarios. He truly looked at us with empathy and a desire to help. If you are in the search for a lawyer that cares, and most importantly is brilliant in making your truth be your savior, George Lamarche is the man.

George is The Best

George was referred to me by another attorney that we use for estate planning. I was being accused in a very serious matter and was very nervous about the potential outcome. Right from the beginning, George stated that he treated clients like friends and genuinely wanted the best result....which wa...s all 100% truth. He and his staff were awesome. Always got back to me in a timely fashion, provided options as they came along, and made the process as easy as possible. He ended up getting a great result and I was more that satisfied. I would highly recommend him and his firm to anyone at anytime. Thanks for Everything George!

First class legal services

I have used the services of George Edward LaMarche III in a recent case. I must say that I am an attorney myself and a senior partner in Canadian national law firm. I found Mr. LaMarche very practical and easily accessible. He delivered a tremendous result in a very short time.
