George McGill
I would highly recommend him!!!
I called after hours for a free consultation and told the answering service I would try back during business hours. Later that night I received a call directly from Mr. Medlin himself. I was very surprised. We discussed my situation and he said he would look into it and call me back after he ate dinner with his family. And Mr. Medlin did in fact call me back. For Mr. Medlin to take time late at night and look into something for me was an honorable thing to me. I felt I needed to reimburse him somehow. I would highly recommend him!!!
