Mr. Gorman is a skilled trial attorney

I hired George to represent my teenager after a traffic accident. I have been an attorney for over 20 years -- I specialize in complex criminal litigation. I know a skilled litigator when I see one. Mr. Gorman fearlessly took a difficult set of facts and convinced the judge to give us a good outco...me. George is without a doubt a skilled litigator. He also provided excellent personalized service, listened carefully to his client (and parents) and knew exactly how to handle the case. Because of George's skilled advocacy, the case turned out better than we expected. I most definitely recommend Mr. Gorman.

Excellent Service

George helped our family with the estate of our deceased brother and we obtained the necessary paperwork to have Power of Attorney for our mother. George met with us almost immediately upon calling and was quick in his responses thereafter. Our time in his office was also quick and efficient. After l...eaving town, our services continued with George electronically and this proved to be very easy and efficient as well. I highly recommend George for estate planning and any other relevant needs you may have. Thanks George, our family really appreciated your professionalism and services! Sincerely, The Family of Mark P.

Couldn’t imagine better representation...

We hired George to represent us for a matter that was extremely important for us to get resolved. Compared to other attorneys I have spoken to, George differentiated himself in our first conversation and he remained the same thoughtful attorney through the years we used George. George is very kno...wledgeable, but he isn’t afraid to do the extra work when it comes to research or double checking the current train of thought. He also listens and is not dismissive of your input. I think these are two incredibly important qualities. But most importantly, we found George to be very thoughtful about not only how to proceed legally, but also in the way he considered us and our family. We are very happy with our representation from George, and we are very appreciative of the outcome that George got us. I wouldn’t hesitate to use George again for any matter and he would also be my first recommendation to any friend or family member that needed an attorney’s assistance, which I do not say lightly.

A job well done

I am very pleased with George’s communication and his patience with communication step by step the process of what was needed for my case. Since I reside out of state it made it a bit more confusing and complicated however he made it seem easier and I was able to complete the required tasks and get w...hat was needed to be done. George was efficient, professional, and honest and realistic and I truly appreciated it. I’m very pleased with the outcome of my case as well as the service and care I received!
