George A. McLaughlin Jr., known over his 40-year career as a skilled trial lawyer, a masterful cross-examiner, and the dean of eminent domain cases in Massachusetts, died Wednesday of multiple myeloma in Massachusetts General Hospital.
McLaughlin was born in Cambridge, the only child of Catherine (Gill) and George A. McLaughlin Sr.
McLaughlin won a landmark eminent domain case for his client, Cadillac Fairview Urban Development Corp., against the town of Burlington, which had taken a piece of property from the corporation and paid it several hundred thousand dollars as compensation.
McLaughlin was acquiring an education it did not occur to her that said education would some time save a little settlement on the frontier and preserve it for good in the development of a great state.
To dig a section of land out of itself is not done without great industry and perseverance and the McLaughlins are to be congratulated, in view of their early difficulties, in accomplishing the task in a quarter of a century.
