George Law

The last thing I wanted to deal with after my car accident was insurance paperwork and endless phone calls. They handled all of that while I concentrated on getting better.

Being hit by a vehicle as a pedestrian changed my life overnight. This team took my injuries seriously and worked hard to get me the compensation I needed.

I read all of the reviews before choosing this firm and was initially optimistic about hiring them, but our experience did not turn out as expected. We hired these lawyers expecting them to be professional and careful, but we feel they showed zero fight in defending us. Unfortunately, this was our experience in a nutshell. My husband and I hired them for a disorderly charge in Hazel Park. We provided them with critical evidence—including video footage establishing harassment by neighbors, false statements in police reports, explaining there was police bodycam footage contradicting the noise allegations, and we also explained that some of our neighbors would be witnesses. I also explained that we were never cited for any of the accusations. However, in our view, the attorneys failed to review or utilize any of it. Instead of investigating the facts, challenging the weak discovery, or building a defense, we felt they ignored our concerns and just wanted to resolve the case by having us plead guilty. We felt that they were minimizing the situation as just a “low misdemeanor.” We felt their lack of preparation directly impacted our case outcome. I can’t begin to explain the mental and financial impact this had on my family. Beyond our $10,000 retainer agreement, we were charged an additional $331 for video discovery. Despite paying for these materials, they failed to provide it to us until after our court hearing had already concluded. We did not get a chance to review critical evidence to make an informed decision to proceed with trial or sign the plea agreement. We initially signed and pleaded to a 6 month delayed sentence with the city’s attorney and the lawyers, and upon successful completion, it will be dismissed. However, once we went for sentencing, they changed the agreement and sentenced us to 10 months delayed sentence. We had the choice to withdraw our plea or accept sentence. At this point, we were over all the injustice and wanted to be done, so we continued with the sentence. We felt that they did not have our best interests at heart. We had to turn in CPL licenses, subjected to a no contact order, attend an impulse class at our expense, pay court costs, and my husband complete 25 hours of community service. We were left dealing with the consequences of their failure to advocate for us. In our opinion, this firm took our money, ignored our evidence, and did not defend their clients. Our case is officially dismissed as of today and we wanted to share our perspective on how our case was handled. Since this review, we are now being threatened for defamation or either remove the review. Now we are in fear of retaliation because we chose to exercise our first amendment right regarding our personal experience with this law firm. We believe in GOD, and our faith and prayers got us through this rough time. No evil prospered against us, and no power is above Jehovah, the Almighty. Honestly, we’d suggest looking somewhere else for trustworthy legal help.

From our first meeting until my case was settled the lawyers at George Law were professional, supportive and relentless in their pursuit of justice on my behalf. They took the time to understand my situation and gave me honest advice every step of the way. A case that was not within their usual scope, my case was handled with a skill and dedication that far exceeded my expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend George Law to anyone. A boutique firm that has the experience and capability that is necessary to take on tough cases- and win- with the personal touch you can only get from a smaller firm. They are a power house and I am forever grateful to them.

Maggie and Megan are great attorneys, I never met George but I'm sure he's great just like the rest of the attorneys. My anxiety was very high and couldn't sleep at night and they rest assured me everything would be okay and sure enough everything was great at the end. They definitely go above and beyond to do what they can to help their clients and I definitely recommend them to anybody that is looking for a great defense attorney.
