Client review

Sal Gallardo has represented me on dozens of cases. Mostly all very low level drug cases. Not only did he save me from prison time and overall doing very little county time, but he was instrumental in my recovery from drug addiction. Sal was not just my lawyer he is also my friend. I have dealt with ...more lawyers than I would like to admit, Sal Gallardo was far and away the best in the courtroom and around every corner he went the extra mile. For ten years he was there and would show up in jail to visit sometimes before I was even housed, with a plan and where to go from there. I have now been out of jail for over 5 years and clean for the majority. When I needed help the most Sal Gallardo was the best Investment I could have made.
