Absolutely GREAT Attorney!

Michael is THE best attorney I’ve ever had/dealt with! Very knowledgeable about the situations of my case and helped me all along the way until my case was finished. He is very prompt returning calls and emails and always willing to answer my questions (no matter how ridiculous I thought they were).... Great sense of humor and always there for me. I can’t say it enough that he is a GREAT attorney and a great person as well. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Non-Compete Consult

Mr. Galo helped us in a difficult situation in regards to a unexpected termination and non-compete. The non-compete was going to keep us out of work but he was able to advise us on our options and even followed up with us after everything had been resolved. He helped us navigate around the non-comp...ete, compiled a list of strategies, and most importantly kept us in compliance and prevented us from getting sued. We were looking for a board certified lawyer and appreciated that Mr. Galo took time right after Christmas 2016 to see us, while other lawyers were out for vacation.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer's work. I've done numerous mediations for Michael, we've represented the same business clients (on different matters) in the past, and we've been opposing counsel. He's just an all-around good lawyer - smart, caring and professional - and one of the most respected peers in our labor and employment law community in San Antonio"

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.
