I hired Mr. Gallo to help me put an incident from my past to rest. He kept me completely informed from day one. During my consultation he told me what to expect, went over the possible outcomes, and gave me a packet with detailed information pertaining to my situation. During the consultation, he too...k his time and answered all of my questions. I never felt rushed. Mr. Gallo was diligent in seeking a speedy resolution for me. There were a few complications, but Mr. Gallo handled them with finesse. He kept me completely informed throughout the process. He even called me personally when I told him I don't check my e-mails. His main concern was to keep me informed, confident, and stress-free. Should I ever need an attorney again, I will not hesitate to hire Mr. Gallo. I would recommend him to anyone needing help with a criminal case. He is aggressive where it counts and patient with clients that are stressed. And he has a good sense of humor to boot.

Mr. Gallo prevented a stupid mistake from becoming a felony conviction and blemish on my otherwise spotless record. I do not live in Ellis County, but was fortunate enough to know someone who does that referred me to Mr. Gallo. Mr. Gallo was very professional and honest when I met him, but I was di...sappointed when he didn't immediately promise to have the case thrown out. I had become the victim of a Craigslist scam, when I attempted to cash a fraudulent check (unbeknownst to me) in Ellis County. Though I was leery of putting a decision or job so important in the hands of someone I don't know, I read all the reviews and hired Mr. Gallo to represent me, for the felony charge of Forgery of a Financial Instrument. The whole situation was a nightmare for me; my job, integrity, and Second Amendment Rights were all at risk of being crushed overnight. Mr. Gallo was quick to respond to all my emails, although they were not as detailed as I had anticipated. I have never needed a lawyer before, but I was expecting him to provide a complete plan of action, evidence list, and step-by-step instructions. Maybe I am a bit of a control freak, but it became clear Mr. Gallo wanted me to sit back and let him handle everything, without involving me in any additional stress from the interworking of the legal process. He did make the effort to call me personally when there where any significant developments in my case. I really appreciated this, since it is so rare to talk to someone directly on the phone these days. While it did take longer than I had hoped (8 months), Mr. Gallo was able to get the DA to completely drop my case without a trial or conviction. I believe Mr. Gallo's experience as previous DA and reputation in Ellis County served as a marked advantage. I do not know how his rates compare to other local lawyers, but I believe the outcome was worth every penny! I highly recommend Mr. Gallo for criminal cases.

Mr. Gallo represented me in a Class B Misdemeanor case recently. He was professional, straight forward, thorough, and passionate. Joe returned all calls and emails immediately and met with me many times to prepare for a trial. He was respectful and caring throughout my case. His office staff wa...s polite and friendly. I highly recommend Joe Gallo to everyone who is in need of a great attorney. He will work hard and tirelessly to provide the best legal service. I was wrongfully accused and Joe made sure the truth was heard and all facts were presented to achieve a not guilty verdict. I am grateful that Joe Gallo was my attorney. He is awesome!

Mr. Gallo did everything he said he would do. He is professional and very knowledgeable in every way. Mr. Gallo was always available to meet with our family, and kept us informed consistently. His professional relationships with the legal community show an obvious mutual respect and proved to be inva...luable. I am very thankful for what he has done for my son. He has earned my respect and gratitude.
