After retiring from Army, George chose to enter the legal profession.

As a parent with primary custody himself, George understands the stress and impact divorce cases have on every member of a family—especially when children are involved. He uses a client centered and trauma informed approach in his cases to help guide his clients through what is one of the most stressful periods of their lives. In his military related cases, George uses his decades of experience and research into military regulations to ensure that those who defend the rights of all citizens have theirs honored as well.
