i have litigated against george for some 15 years. he is a very good advocate for his clients and is a pleasure to work with in litigation. he still lacks some ability to analyze problems with the position of his opponent in mind, and like many defense attorneys he has stagnated in his legal knowledge, which is the only reason i don't give him straight 5's. i do endorse him as a very high "b/v" and would have no objection to an "a/v" rating should your company consider him qualified.
