Jury Trial - awarded damages

Mr. Beason handled a case for me when my former employer refused to pay commissions owed to me. When the defendant refused to negotiate any payment to me, we took the case to trial. It was obvious to me that Mr. Beason was no stranger to the courtroom! He was relaxed and very well prepared. This ...was my first time in a courtroom setting and I was extremely anxious. Mr. Beason helped me remain calm and confident. He understood every detail of my case and effectively relayed our message to the jury. He was very thorough with each witness and showed no mercy when the Defendant repeatedly made excuses of why she wasn’t responsible for paying the commissions I had earned. The jury gave a verdict in our favor and I was awarded damages! In these hard economic times, not getting part of my salary was devastating to me and my family. Mr. Beason went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure I would be compensated, and for that I am truly grateful.

George Beason Review

Thirty years ago after the death of my father, my grandmother, who was left with three young granddaughters, stood to lose our family farm because my father left no will and owed several creditors. She was pointed in the direction of young attorney, George Beason, who just getting started in his care...er. George took her case and worked tirelessly to find a way for the woman he affectionately called “Miss Annie” to keep her farm. Although not everyone had “Miss Annie’s” best interest at heart, George made sure that she and her girls were taken care of. George settled her case and she was able to keep the farm, but so much more came from the case. A friendship was formed that continues today with my family. In 1993, I called on George to represent me in my divorce proceedings and again in 2000 when my ex-husband sought custody of our children. Not only was George knowledgeable in law, but he was also very professional as well as kind and caring. During both cases, there was so much that I didn’t know and I had so many questions. I had to call George on numerous occasions and if he was unable to take my call, he always returned my call. I have found that to be a rarity with today’s lawyers. Court, for me, was a very scary place, but George calmed my fears and guided me through everything. Today, my son has legal issues regarding his children and we truly wished that George still handled these type cases for I know that we would receive the finest of representation. To say that George has left a lasting impression on my family would be an understatement. George has handled several legal matters for other members of my family and they are in agreement with me that, in our opinion, there is no finer lawyer in Huntsville than George Beason. Also, having utilized the services of Mac Martinson, Doug Martinson II, and Elizabeth Beason Moore with the law firm, may I add that we don’t believe that there is a finer law firm to be found in Huntsville. Their professionalism, expertise and attention to detail is head and shoulders above the rest and I would gladly recommend to anyone George Beason and the law firm of Martinson & Beason.
