George’s courtroom experience is unmatched: he has tried more than 60 jury trials in Circuit Court and hundreds of cases in General District Court. His ability to anticipate how insurance companies value claims comes from years spent defending those very companies earlier in his career. That insider perspective now works to the advantage of his clients.
