Excellent Divorce Attorney

Laurie Gallo is an excellent divorce attorney. From meeting her at my consultation I knew she had my best interest at heart. She was compassionate and understanding during a very difficult time for me. Laurie guided me in aspects of divorce I didn't know existed, including protecting family inherite...d assets. Due to her advanced knowledge of divorce law and professionalism, I believe my divorce was handled fairly and was a success. Laurie and her staff were always available and honest, I highly recommend her.

Excellent Lawyer Experience

Attorney Gallo handled my post divorce issues. She was efficient, highly responsive and extremely effective in handling my issues in a timely fashion. Her approach is pragmatic and her advice comes from a seasoned history of handling many divorce cases. She led me through the complexity of court proc...eedings and wisely advised me to a settlement that was extremely fair. Her first priority was protecting my children and my rights and negotiated with the opposing lawyer professionally and successfully. Having her as my council, I felt extremely confident I could handle any issues and would certainly call upon her if any future issues were to arise.

Representation in a Divorce Proceeding

Laurie is an extremely competent attorney and knows this area of the law very well. I asked Laurie to be my legal advisor and to look-out for my financial interest and that is exactly what she did. In the end, Laurie helped to craft an agreement that was equitable to both sides. While divorce is ne...ver easy, Laurie displayed a high level of sensitivity to the emotional roller-coaster the parties frequently go through. I have no hesitation recommending Laurie to others who may need a good attorney for a divorce case.

Above and Beyond

Professional, knowledgeable, and always being mindful of the sensitive nature of a divorce involving children. Trustworthy advice backed by personal experience as well as professional knowledge of local courts and fellow lawyers and judges. Fair, honest and readily available. Constant attention to de...tail. Exceeded expectations. Hope to never need an attorney again, but if I should, I know Attorney Gallo will be my first call.

A Superb Attorney

Ms. Gallo went above and beyond the call when dealing with my divorce. She clearly demonstrated that she wanted to win the case (and did) and did so in a highly ethical manner. Laurie made me feel successful about the case - that I could be a winner and that meant everything to me. She should be clon...ed!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Attorney Gallo is an amazing attorney whose work as a GAL on a case I was involved in was instrumental in getting the parties to come to an amicable resolution that was in the best interests of her clients (the children). Her thorough investigative work and insight into the issues together with the professional and respectful manner in which she treated everyone involved enabled the parents to work cooperatively to settle the case rather than bringing it to trial."
