Christine Lynn Gallagher

my husband referred to Christine as a bulldog. He did not care for her at all, because she was walking all over him and his lawyer. She took the time to really understand my kids medical conditions and the situation that I was in regarding medical treatment for them. While we decided in the end not ...to get a divorce, should I need a lawyer again in the future, I would pick her without hesitation !

I had an emergency big case. I needed someone ASAP and was up against Mathew Dudley. I called around and most attorneys said they would not fight Mathew in Court. They told me that he is the #1 attorney with profanity spray-painted on the walls around the courthouse. Both children's fathers of mine g...ot together and hired one Attorney, Mathew Dudley. 2 fathers, and one case number! The motion was an emergency placement to take my children out of my care. Christine Gallagher met with me the next day and fearlessly fought with me to put the fire out. She is so compassionate and treated me like a daughter. Truly caring for me. We had 2 hearings after that and trial on the same issue almost 2 years later. She is well prepared, always shows up, billing and office stuff always in line. one complaint of billing I had in 2 years, and she wiped it away. I thought that all attorneys where awful unhealthy people. But Christine Gallagher is the first attorney out of 4 that I have experienced, in Court previous years that I actually turned my thinking around. She is glowingly healthy and uses all things for good. She is an amazing mother, and has a very healthy husband and marriage from the looks of it. A very good person you would want to represent you. The Judge in trial respected her deeply. I kept my kids the first round, and at trial walked away with more than I thought I would, more than what I was willing to give them in mediation.

I have never seen anyone handle them self’s in a more professional was then my lawyer Christine Gallagher, she reviewed My case concerning my child and put together a fantastic defense for my case and now because of this it resulted in a victory on my part. This is the first lawyer I have ever came... in contact with and if another lawyer is ever needed I will hold them to a high Standard and expect nothing but perfection just as Christine Gallagher proved to me.

Christine did an absolutely amazing job with my case. My ex, who is an extreme narcissist, had fabricated an elaborate story that I was using drugs and neglecting my daughter, and that I was "crazy" because I have PTSD (mostly from him), in an attempt to take custody and prevent me from moving, even ...though he had not even bothered to meet our daughter until after she turned one, and never paid a penny to support her until she was 4. He got his whole family and several other people to come as witnesses and lie for him. Like most narcissists, he and his family are very charismatic and charming, but Christine caught them in their lies, showing the court without a doubt that they were biased and dishonest. His attorney, Craig Mason, was also very sneaky and tried to convince the judge not to take it as a relocation case, and then halfway through tried to change the case to say that I was an unfit mother because my ex believed I had cheated on him and that he didn't even think our child was his, but Christine was ready for everything he threw at us. I was frankly terrified to go to court against my ex, because he and his family had been very abusive and controlling ever since I got pregnant with our daughter. He isolated me from everyone I knew and convinced them that I was a terrible person who had cheated on him, when in reality I wanted to leave him because he was drinking far too much and was abusing me. I finally got the courage to get away from him when I was 7 months pregnant and my then-3-year-old told me she was afraid of him. Since then he has controlled the narrative surrounding our story, convincing everyone around him that he was some sad wronged guy who just wanted his daughter to be safe, and that I was a drugged-out unfit mom. Because of this, I was afraid that he would be able to convince a judge as well. I also had very short hair at the time, and two attorneys before Christine told me that I needed to grow my hair out to look more "presentable." Within 5 minutes of talking to Christine, I felt confident for the first time that I would be able to win. Christine handled the whole thing with incredible skill and style. She and her paralegal Rachel (one of the most knowlegable people I've ever met) were always available to answer any questions I had. Christine made sure to explain every step along the way, she called me whenever something upsetting happened to make sure I was okay, and she always made me feel like I was her priority. Craig Mason was so sneaky that even after the judge issued her ruling, he continued to try to change documents and sneak little things in, but Christine never stopped fighting for me. The judge saw through my ex's lies and Mr Mason's games, saw me for who I am, and in the end awarded me almost everything I asked for, and my daughter lives with me in our new town. I absolutely believe that without Christine, my ex would have been able to convince the courts of his story, and my daughter would be suffering for it. I recommend her so highly, I cannot say it enough. She has grace, compassion, style, humor, and extraordinary skill. She is so kind and understanding, and just an amazing badass. I am so grateful to have had her as my champion in what was the most difficult and frightening ordeal of my life.
