Car accident

Paul Galm is an outstanding personal injury lawyer. After my car accident, he provided exceptional legal support demonstrations. Professionalism, dedication, and genuine care. He truly listened to my concerns, fought hard for my case, and ultimately secured a successful outcome for me. His hard work ...made a huge difference, and I couldn't be more grateful. If you need a top-notch attorney, I highly recommend Paul Galm. He's the one you want on your side.

Excellent Lawyer!

Paul is amazing at what he does - he is very knowledgeable and really cares about his clients . I am very happy with him and have recommended him to others - they have recommended him as well. Look no further - he will take care of you!

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

car accident

I contacted Mr. Galm about a car accident. He called me back to sort out if we really needed his services and spoke with me by telephone for 20 mnutes. He explained the way the laws would work in our situation and what he would expect to happen. In a situation which had caused a great deal of anxi...ety for our family, he was able to ease our minds in minutes. We ended up concluding we would not need his help with this situation, but if I ever need a lawyer again for this kind of problem, he will be the one we contact!

A Lawyer Who Cares

Paul went above and beyond for us after my husband was injured in an accident. He was thorough, attentive to all aspects of the case, and kept us informed of all of our options. He brought in experts and carefully examined who was responsible for the accident. What I really appreciated was when ot...her lawyers would have given up, Paul continued to fight for us. We would seek Paul's counsel again if we needed legal representation.

Client review

Open and direct communication and patient enough to explain things when there is some confusion or question. I trust him to take the correct path not just the profitable one.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I was opposing counsel on a case with Paul and he is a top shelf lawyer. He worked with me to identify the facts and not bury them. We squared off on the issues which neither of us had dealt with before and both our clients prevailed on important and tense legal issues. Which sounds ordinary but that we did it without the tension being personal was extraordinary. Great lawyer and one that I would recommend friends and family to."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Paul calls things as he sees them; has nothing but straight talk; he will go to the mat with you but still remains honest, ethical, and a gentleman - not an easy thing to do in this profession. He is diligent and a hard worker. Rest easy if your lawyer is Paul Galm - you are in good hands. Next time, Paul, I'll beat you..."

"I worked with Paul at the District Attorney's office where he proved himself to be a skilled trial lawyer. He has a natural ability to connect and communicate with people, whether they are jurors or clients injured in an accident. He is also honest and a straight shooter, two very important qualities in a personal injury lawyer."
