Over the past decade, Gallagher & Kennedy has built a strong team of personal injury attorneys. The firm’s roster has expanded in the past year, adding some of Arizona’s top legal practitioners in the personal injury field. This has positioned G&K to be Arizona’s premiere personal injury law firm with the capacity to support any legal issue clients may encounter. Knowing this team of attorneys, I cannot recommend G&K highly enough to help with all personal injury needs.

My secretary used them and said nothing but good things. My initial conversation with them went well and seemed to be pretty straight up, which I can’t say for all lawyers that I have spoken to.

Gallagher & Kennedy [attorneys] are consummate professionals and relentless in their efforts to win. Opponents have to work twice as hard when facing G&K.

Best law firm in the State of Arizona hands down.

Amazing, wonderful, thoughtful, professional, on point…. Just a few words I could use to describe these wonderful humans. So responsible, followed up on every little detail, had answers to ALL my questions, no BS deflection or decoy answers. Having a case is stressful enough, knowing this team is on it will put your mind at rest.
