Smooth process

Manuel helped reduce my stress over my situation and handled my problem with clear expertise, allowing me to worry about other thing. Would definitely look for him again for future legal assistance.

Prompt and professional

Manuel was everything I look for in an attorney: professional, reliable, and no-nonsense. He responded both quickly and completely to my inquiries and helped me to make the best of my situation without the headache that usually comes with legal proceedings. Hopefully I don’t need legal counsel anytim...e soon, but if I do, Manuel will be my first call.

Choose him if you want the best results!

Manuel was the greatest so far. He helped me navigate through my process smoothly. He is very experienced and knows his way around the law well. I truly appreciated having him represent me overall he was great and got the results I needed quickly. He is very efficient, communicates, and gets things d...one in a timely manner. You won’t be disappointed!!

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Was not able to win a simple case with no evidence against his client

Hired this attorney for a restraining order case. The petitioner had absolutely no evidence to back up their case. Just a bunch of tears to accrue sympathy. The petitioner used race as a way to get bias from the court. While Mr. Galang gave questioning to the petitioner he didn't use a single piece o...f evidence his client gave to him with lots of time in advance to study. The entire situation was an embarrassment and insult of character. It was a complete was of time and money and wish I chose different counsel for the matter. His communication was super poor around the whole situation. After court he never returned the paperwork/evidence that was submitted to him. Tried on several occasions to get property returned to no avail. Please don't waste your time or money on this guy.

Replied last March 25, 2025

I've handled hundreds of cases in Wisconsin over my 35 years of practice. My number one goal is client satisfaction and I make every effort on my client's behalf. On occasion, a client receives a result they are not satisfied with. That can happen in criminal and family law cases. Without details, I can't respond directly to the review, but I am open to discussing with the reviewer his or her concerns directly.

  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
