"I endorse this lawyer. Anthony Georgelis is a fine trial lawyer, who has excellent court room skills. He is respected by the judiciary and by other legal counsel, including opposing counsel. He obtains good results for his clients. In years past, I was opposing counsel on some cases. He was a zealous advocate, but scrupulously abided by the Rules of Professional Responsibility. He is very experienced in multiple aspects of tort litigation, including complex cases. He is knowledgeable about procuring expert medical witnesses, and is quite skilled in taking medical depositions. Yet, he relates well to juries and to witnesses, and is not considered condescending in manner, which sometimes occurs with renowned trial attorneys. Furthermore, Mr. Georgelis is very experienced in workers' compensation matters, although he has been performing more liability cases within the last several years. I strongly endorse Attorney Anthony Georgelis."
"Tony is a skilled, compassionate and tireless advocate for his clients in all matters. I specifically endorse him here for his expertise in Workers Compensation cases as he consistently takes on the tough cases and gets results. He is respected by his peers and the bench for his knowledge, preparation and thoroughness."
