Want the Best?

Mr. Albiston and his office staff were an anchor for our family during a tumultuous time after our son was hit by a drunk driver. He impressed us with much understanding of the head injury, read a ream of medical reports, aided the whole family in our shock of the situation and was amazingly creati...ve with detailed negotiations on a very complicated case. He covered every detail and then some. He worked tirelessly for us and advised us like our son was his son. We can't thank him enough.

Work-related personal injury

When my husband was injured in the line of duty the nature of some of his injuries was not readily apparent. As we awaited the final diagnosis of his condition, we needed help and advice. Several legal firms advised us to wait until we had more information before they would assist us. This was not... the case with George Albiston. Without his help my husband and I would have been lost in medical and legal paperwork. George and his staff were always available to answer our questions and provide support and advice. It was comforting to know that George had experience working with injured clients, and his manner was always kind, reassuring and confidant. I have recommended George to several friends, and will continue to do so. George has integrity, compassion and keen intelligence.

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.
