George V. Laughrun II

I hired George back in 2005. I had a list of charges that kept compounding more and more. I decided to hire him after a lecture from a state trooper who could have arrested me but said I was lucky it was the near the end of his shift and did not want to do the paper work, assuming a lot. I had failur...e to appears so I also has warrants when he let me go. I hired George and put 100 dollar down payment retainer. I was planning on paying him in full after the judgment. I ended up getting warrants in the mail for failure to appear. I assumed it was in error because I put a down payment for his service. I went to court on the court date after not hearing anything. They never called my name I saw him there. I saw people going to jail in front of me for being late missing their actual court time. I walked out afraid for arrest and called him. He said I didn't pay him. I asked his receptionist if they do payments, she told me to ask him. He agreed and say yes. I paid him 400 that day. He told me to meet him back in the same court room. I still saw people being arrested. Judge was having a bad day! I walked out again thinking I wasn't getting off the hook. George had to play lawyer in 2 court rooms so he was back and forth. I ended up seeing him in the hallway and told him I don't want to go to jail. He said. Your not, lets go take care of this now. We walk in. He goes right to the front. He had them call me up next. He talked to the judge. The judge looks at me, PAY THE FINE. That was it. We were done. Cleared up years of running from the law and warrants. It was the start of a clean slate. So if you hire him do your homework. Make arrangements, get it in writing. Mostly, keep in contact with him. I since have chosen a new lawyer. One that is more, I feel is compassionate to his clients without judgement. Trust me, I have had a few,

George Laughrun humiliated my son in court., He did not know the case, what was in the discovery, knew statements were with held that could have helped. Did not investigate the case . Lead my son to the dogs. Let the media keep going on and on. Did not protect in any way, professionally or responsibl...y. Judge made a ruling and Laughrun went up to the bench and made the judge add to his own clients sentence. What an idiot lawyer when it comes to complicated matters. He did not work on the case at all. Always a clean desk. Never a file on his desk to discuss. always argued with us. Took his client to talk to the ADA, ALE, and State Hwy Patrol, knowing he had a traumatic brain injury, and could not comprehend what was being asked. Did not remember the meeting at all. I will never forget how this man treated the family, and humiliated his supposed client at the bench trial, and even agreed with the victims families. And also used this to help the ADA. All I have to say now is stay away from this lawyer if you don't want to be humiliated and not protected. Also, Made a speech : Your honor I can not tell you how many I have arrested, sent to prison, etc. in court.
