About Bridget
Biography
I have been practicing in Hartford county for over twenty-five years and have a vast amount of experience in residential and commercial real estate, as well as probate and real estate based litigation. I have conducted hundreds of closings and I take pride in the fact that my clients often refer their family and friends to me. I also do a fair amount of real estate litigation, such as contract disputes, boundary issues, easement disputes and the like. I also have an active probate litigation practice and handle will contests and other types of probate disputes.
If you are buying or selling a business or real estate, or if you are facing a challenging legal issue, I invite you to call me to discuss your matter with me personally. It is important to seek professional guidance early on so that we can help identify potential risks and help you understand what to expect during the process. You may call or email me at

Property law service excellence
Bridget Gallagher has been my property lawyer for the past three and a half years and she successfully closed some very complex property deals.

The very best for many years!
I have had the pleasure of working with Bridget Gallagher, not once or twice, but three times. I worked with Bridget when she was with another law firm and promptly followed her to where she practices law now. Bridget has made my transitions smooth (and I think we all know how stressful selling/b...

Wonderful legal representation "for sale by owner"
Bridget represented us when we sold our house. We did not use a realtor so we really needed assistance. Bridget was wonderful (knowledgeable, responsive, helpful, etc) and everything went smoothly. She is also just a very nice person, so delightful to work with during a stressful time.

Bridget C Gallagher's Lawyer Endorsements
"Bridget is one my resources when I need legally sophisticated but business oriented advice on litigation or real estate issues. As lawyers at Brown, Paindiris and Scott do, she rightly prides herself on her responsiveness to client needs. She is a great lawyer, and a great person."
"Attorney Gallagher is a very effective and skilled business, real estate and probate litigation attorney. You will find her to be very responsive and keeps her clients fully informed. She has had many successful outcomes for clients, even in very difficult factual cases."
"I endorse this lawyer. Bridget is a "Lawyer's lawyer" ; she leaves no stone unturned. She is methodical in her approach to solving problems on behalf of her clients and is extremely well prepared when in court."
"Bridget was instrumental in helping us develop trial strategy. She was extremely well prepared, kept us informed every step of the way and had a very practical approach to solving problems."
"Bridget represented an opposing party on an eminent domain matter involving a challenge to both the constitutionality of the taking and the valuation of the subject property. She did an excellent job for her clients. As an opponent, we both worked together during settlement discussions in attempting to take the "emotion" out of a case that inherently involved emotional issues. She is an excellent attorney"
"I have known Bridget for longer than she will admit. I have closed numerous commercial real estate finance transactions with Bridget and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with her. I refer many matters in which I have conflicts to Bridget. There can be no stronger endorsement from an attorney than to refer clients to another colleague. Bridget is efficient and practices in a no-nonsense manner. I would highly recommend Bridget to any party with a commercial law, finance or real estate matter that needs thorough and professional attention."

"I endorse Attorney Gallagher without hesitation. I have refered many complex construction disputes to her and will continue to do so in the future."
"Bridget and I have been on the same side and on opposite sides of several matters. In each case she has represented her client's interest well and diligently. Bridget is very knowledgeable about construction and real estate related litigation. She is practical and tactical. She doesn't waste time and has the ability to get to the heart of the matter right away, characteristics that I am sure her clients love."
