About George Lepley

My practice now and for the last 40 years has been almost exclusively criminal defense work. During this time, I have represented individuals on virtually every type of criminal charge in the State of Pennsylvania. I have appeared in over one-third of the counties in Pennsylvania, as well as represented individuals with criminal cases pending in New York, Maryland and New Jersey. I have also represented many individuals in Federal Court as well.

I began my career in the Lycoming County Public Defender’s office as an Assistant Public Defender. In 1980, I was promoted to Chief Public Defender and also began my private practice. Until 1984, I served as Chief Public Defender as well as being a partner in my private law firm.

Over the past 40 years, our office has handled thousands of DUI cases, thousands of other types of criminal offenses, and in excess of fifty homicide cases. We have won acquittals in DUI, burglary, aggravated assault, murder and rape charges at jury trial.

If you are charged with an offense, you should consult and hire an attorney who concentrates in the area of criminal defense and who will be better qualified to make sure that your rights are protected and that punishment, if any, is appropriate in your case.
