Very Helpful and Experienced

Mr. Lennon was very helpful in advising me how to strengthen my case and explaining a little how social security works behind the curtain. I appreciate the time he took with me and admire him for helping those in difficult circumstances.

Roy Wayne Bartrug

George Lennon and his Staff were very Conscience of my injury, i.e. " compressed disk pinced nerves and all the pain that goes with an injury of the lower back after a collision while on the job of which was not my fault." and George Lennon and his staff STUCK WITH ME TO THE END. I believe if George... and his staff were not in my corner I would have been swept under the table by the Department of Corrections as " Just another employee that couldn't cut it ". Even thought i put over 12 years already working for them. George and his staff can not receive Higher marks in my book and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIS SERVICES to anyone.

Thoughtful

George called me and talked to me for about an hour or more and was so thoughtful and caring and offers to help me if I so chose to do so - as it turned out I ended up with another lawyer but George gave me piece of mind when I was at my worst and made me know that there is help available -

Excellent Attorney for Social Security Disability Claim

George Lennon provided excellent legal representation with my Social Security Disability Claim. He and his professional staff filed all the necessary paperwork with SSA. George attended my hearing. I was so impressed with his knowledge about the process. It was very comforting to me for him to be t...here and to advise me every step of the way. The process can be very stressful, but not for me, because George and his staff kept me informed and updated on a regular basis either by phone or e-mail. I would highly recommend George Lennon to anyone that has to apply for Social Security Disability.

Highly recommend George Lennon for WC Case

George Lennon has provided excellent legal representation for my Son in a very serious WC case. He always responds to any and all of our questions and concerns in a very timely manner, either by e-mail or by phone. We receive regular updates on the case. George takes the time to make sure we under...stand the legal process as we move forward because it can get confusing. We feel that George Lennon has our best interest at heart. We have always been treated with the upmost respect by George and his very professional Staff.

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.
