Professional and Ethical Attorney

We had a rather unfortunate experience with a rather unscrupulous Attorney who agreed to assist our son with a legal matter and would discount his services if our son paid cash. We subsequently found out that this Attorney took his cash and did nothing. The matter was never addressed with the cour...t and was impacting our son’s ability to secure work in his chosen career. We were somewhat dubious about finding and selecting another Attorney to represent our son’s case and thankfully found Mr. Gallo. We checked reviews and with his varied professional background as a Judge, Prosecutor and now Defense Attorney he had the insight into all aspects of the legal system and the ability to provide the best legal advice and representation. We are happy to report that the matter was handled professionally and in a timely manner. From beginning to end the entire process took a little over a month from the date of contract signing to the favorable resolution of our son’s legal matter. Mr. Gallo provided copies of all documentation concerning this legal matter and thoroughly explained the process to us. He was very responsive to all our questions and there were many back and forth emails as we were determined not to be ‘duped’ again. His office administrator was very efficient and both kept us apprised of proceedings and provided supporting documentation as the case progressed. We have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Gallo as a straight forward, honest Attorney who will provide the best representation for his clients and work to secure the best possible outcome. Thank you Mr. Gallo for renewing our faith that it’s possible to find a reputable and ethical Attorney. - Alan

long distance lawyer

Thank you Joe Gallo!! So thankful we got Joe for our lawyer, First he called me back personally (not a secretary) close to 5 pm when I called in a panic. My husband got picked-up in TX and I am in ND, Joe told me exactly what to expect as this was all new to me, he kept me informed promptly after... each step he accomplished with good news each time. He made me feel like I had a friend in TX that would take care of everything , And HE DID!! He got the best outcome imaginable, and promptly !!! THANK YOU JOE GALLO!!!

Justice served

Mr. Gallo went above and beyond our expectations, particularly given that we presented him with a difficult, unusual, and lengthy case that required a lot of extra legwork and creativity on his part. Despite many challenging obstacles, he pursued justice vigorously and with great perseverance. He too...k the time to patiently listen and educate us about the process. This made us feel like we had a truly concerned and dedicated expert advocate on our side, which is a great reassurance when facing an unfamiliar legal system. He warned us that the process would be long and difficult, giving us realistic expectations about our chances of winning. He kept us constantly informed throughout the case. He was always highly accessible and responsive, both in person and via e-mail, without tacking on any extra surprise charges for answering our many questions. In fact, given the horror stories one reads about in the press regarding legal expenses often spiraling unpredictably out of control when contacting attorneys, I was pleasantly surprised that he agreed to take on our case for an extremely reasonable flat rate, clearly disclosed up front. He always kept his word, following up promptly on every commitment to handle problems for us. His expertise limited the amount of time and effort that we had to put into the process ourselves, sparing us from the need to have any additional unpleasant direct encounters with the court system. His thorough understanding of the mechanics of the legal system, combined with his extensive experience and excellent reputation with local law enforcement officers, prosecutors, and judges, greatly facilitated progress and eventual victory in our case.
