Everything you could want

Byron provided me with sound and accurate legal advice and helped me to win my case. He was very professional and was always willing to return my phone calls, usually that very same day. I've had other lawyers in the past, that always left me expecting more, not the case with Byron. I highly recommen...d him and we'll use him in the future if necessary.

The BEST lawyer I've had the pleasure to meet/work with!

Let me start off by saying that Mr. Gallagher is absolutely the BEST lawyer I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I was so fortunate to have found him. The first thing I noticed was his willingness to just listen. He never rushed me which made me feel comfortable enough to explain in detail my situa...tion and ask him all the questions I had. He always returned my calls and emails promptly and he was always consistent in keeping me informed through every step of the process. I truly appreciate from the bottom of my heart all his help and consideration and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding lawyer.

Doesn't Get Any Better

Pat and his team invested a lot of time in our case and guided us through the whole process. They provided us with constant updates through phone and emails. Kept our best interest in mind at all times. If you want a lawyer who is passionate, knowledgeable, professional and really cares about your we...ll-being, The Gallagher Law Firm has the attorney for you.
