This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent!

When I came to Bailey and Galyen for help on my work comp case, I was confused and feeling hopeless. My previous attorney rarely returned phone calls or emails. Nor did he help me receive treatment for my injuries. In the end many of my work comp benefits were stopped and we parted ways. Bai...ley & Galyen immediately sent me to a doctor who recommended various treatments. I'm now being seen by a wonderful medical staff who are extremely professional and friendly. Also, the team at Bailey and Galyen were able to restart my work comp payments with back pay! Kim Smith in particular has stepped up with expertise, attention to detail and kindness. She encourages me to reach out with any questions or concerns and most importantly she is timely! Bailey & Galyen has taken away my legal concerns regarding work comp which has allowed me to concentrate on my recovery. I'm VERY grateful!

Kim was very knowledgeable and patient. She answered all of my questions and took her time to make sure I was comfortable with my decisions. I would hire her, if I need to and would recommend her.

2 yr fight to get medical attention

I fought with workman's comp for 2 years after being injured on the job. If it had not been for my attorneys with Bailey & Galyen I would never have received the medical help needed. My surgery went well & so far I have been able to get the needed PT to get back to MMI.

Knowledgeable and Prepared

My lawyer, Kim Wyatt accepted my case and handled everything for me very professionally. On my court day she came very prepared and won my case! All of her hard work took the pressure off of me. I am very thankful for that.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • 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.
