Exceeding all expectations

George Francisco exceeded my expectations in all aspects. He calmly and actively listened, understood, and helped to focus my concerns and goals. He then formulated a practical, reasonable plan to accomplish those goals and executed the plan with positive effect in a timely manner. His "people-skil...ls" and "legal skills" are impeccable. His estimates of time, costs, and outcome proved to be "right-on." I recommend him with complete confidence.

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.
