George King is an Experienced and successful trial attorney

A Gun in the Car

George’s client had no criminal record but was being charged with illegally carrying a firearm, and if convicted it would be a mandatory 18-month jail sentence.  The client was traveling in the early morning hours and his car was involved in a single car accident, resulting in heavy damage when it tipped over on its side.  While preparing to tow the car way, the police found a loaded handgun in the car, and immediately charged George’s client with the crime.  George was able to convince a jury utilizing DNA evidence, fingerprint evidence and a less than thorough police investigation that the evidence against his client was far too speculative to earn a conviction.  The jury returned a not guilty verdict in a short period of time.

Six Different Charges of Domestic Violence

In this matter the client was charged with six different charges emanating from a domestic situation. Two of the charges were extremely serious, one of which may have cost the client custody of his young child.  George was able to point out significant inconsistencies in the account of the story told by the complaining witness by calling several witnesses to the stand that the prosecutor desired to leave out.  A thorough investigation and effective trial management led to a not guilty verdict on all six counts.

Ammunition in the Trunk

George’s client was charged with illegal possession of ammunition and a conviction would have led to a potential lengthy period of incarceration.  George strategically filed a motion to suppress the discovery of the ammunition in the car.  Effective cross examination of the arresting state trooper as to his motivations and approach to conducting the search of his client’s automobile, using the troopers own body worn camera as documentary evidence, was successful.  The Judge who heard the matter granted the motion to suppress. Winning this motion effectively ended the case causing it to be dismissed.


A Gun in a Purse

In this matter the client, a female in her early 20s, was charged with carrying a firearm.  Two friends told the police they found it in her purse and turned it into police.  It was a very serious charge as it carries an 18-month mandatory minimum sentence in the House of Correction.  George filed a motion to dismiss challenging the probable cause presented. The manner that firearm was allegedly found and reported did not meet the threshold to hold George’s client responsible.   A fair and thoughtful Judge heard the motions, took it under advisement, and ultimately dismissed the charge.  Using the pre-trial process to lessen exposure is a successful criminal defense strategy.


A Serious Stabbing Incident

The client faced three charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon due to an alleged stabbing. The evidence was not good for the client, including statements he made and very graphic pictures of the injured victim and blood smeared over the scene.  George tried to negotiate a fair plea, but the Commonwealth would not agree to anything short of incarceration.  George put forth a tentative plea with the knowledge he would take the case to trial as opposed to agreeing to jail time.   George was not only able to convince the Judge to require no jail time, the client was only sentenced to administrative probation with no other conditions.  


A Timely Injunction

In January 2023  George represented a member of the Massachusetts Republican State Committee who had been illegally removed from the Committee by the then and now former Chairman for his own political interests.  George filed suit in Middlesex Superior Court on behalf of the removed member, and obtained an injunction ordering she be restored to the  Committee.

OUI Trial

George  takes thoughtful and unique approaches to criminal matters.   The following article appeared recently in a local newspaper police log:


1:51 a.m.: An officer patrolling on XXXX Street spotted a vehicle stopped diagonally across a lane. The officer looked inside the 2008 Honda Accord and saw a woman asleep behind the wheel with the engine running. Police woke her and officers detected a strong odor of alcohol from her breath. A half-full bottle of tequila was found in the center arm rest of the rear passenger seat. The woman admitted to drinking before getting behind the wheel. She did not pass three field sobriety tests. XXXX, was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol and was cited for obstructing the roadway.


At first glance this looks like an impossible case, but George took the time and effort to understand all the facts.  After a jury trial, the client in question was found not guilty on all counts.

Domestic Assault

George's client was charged with domestic assault and battery.  His girlfriend who was making the allegations was insistent on bringing him to trial and testifying agains him. George's client wa found not guilty after a trial which clearly exposed inconsistencies and outright contradictions of the complaining witness on cross examination.

OUI Crash

George's client had a car crash in the early morning hours on Route 95 at Route 2.  The car ended up in a deep ditch, injuring the driver.  The State Police charged George's client with OUI.  At trial, George was able to overcome police testimony by using the Trooper's body-worn camera to show that his client was not exhibiting signs of OUI.  Despite a problematic ult, the client was found not guilty by a jury.

Taking on Insurance Companies

George's client was being sued in conjunction with an automobile accident.  The insurance company was refusing to cover them.  George forced the insurance company to pay for the defense costs, settled the case for a very reasonable amount, and got the insurance company to participate in the settlement.


OUI-Third Offense

George’s client was facing an OUI-3 charge, which had a mandatory jail sentence.  At trial, George was able to overcome body-worn and surveillance camera video of the field sobriety testing to achieve a not guilty verdict.  George’s client arrived at court prepared to spend six months in jail but instead walked out the front door of the courthouse with the likelihood of his lifetime license suspension being vacated.  A well-planned legal and trial strategy was employed to achieve a favorable outcome.
