An AMAZING MAN and the BEST ATTORNEY in Kern County

George has fought for us to keep our family together he has been with us since the birth of our baby and continues to fight for us George makes sure that we understand what is going on with our case and stays connected with us so we have no worries or doubts. George knows his clients and his cases be...fore he goes before the judge and truly fights for the best interest of his clients and their families while making you feel like you're apart of his family. April his paralegal has become a very close friend of ours as she too truly cares about her clients.

BEST LAWYER IN THE BUSINESS!!!

I retained George Horrigan in 2005, This was the best decision in the world. EVERY TIME I had a question he was quick to call me back. George and his staff are true professionals!! In 2005 I thought I was hiring a lawyer to help me in a TOUGH time, turns out I did, what I didn't know at the time was... I also hired a friend, someone who truly cares about my family!! Mr Horrigan went from a stranger on the streets to my family's hero. A true Hero. I was never alone in this long process, Mr Horrigan was with me every step of the way. Even when my case went to the appeals court Mr Horrigan was always a phone call away. If you are reading this in hopes of finding an attorney you can trust, Give Mr Horrigan a call. I promise you will not find a better lawyer.

GENUINE LAWYER!

I had the pleaseure of hiring Mr. Horrigan unfortunately I had to go through 2 other not so great attorneys before retaining George! He is a GENUINE lawyer who actually cares about his clients and treats them and the opposing party with respect. He never disrespected opposing counsel or my ex even ...though both of which are IDIOTS! I appreciate the kindness and concern George possessed when handling my case. I have mutual friends that are also using his services and are delighted! I would suggest to anyone who needs an honest and trustworthy lawyer to call George Horrigan!

  • 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.
