WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

Chambers USA

Client Comment

I have a great deal of respect for Janey [Henze Cook]. She can handle anything.

Chambers USA

Client Comment

Tom [Henze] is a wonderful guy who is very good at what he does.

Beau Roysden

Consumer Fraud

I hired Kevin Neal to help with a very complex and important consumer fraud case. Kevin's work ethic, attention to detail, and client communication were all fantastic. I was thrilled with the result he was able to provide, because he prepared the case so well and was able to negotiate from a position of strength. I would highly recommend Kevin and his firm to others looking for top-quality legal representation.

Steven Twist

Litigation

Kevin Neal represented our company in connection with litigation related to a complex matter. Throughout the course of the representation he was exceptionally effective. Always prepared, always communicating updates, highly ethical, and producing the highest quality work. We strongly recommend him and his firm.

Kyle King

I could not ask for more from my experience with the team at Gallagher & Kennedy as my attorney. I went in with the expectation that I was OK with either outcome, but to learn as much as I could about the process and the specific situation that the team helped me work through. If you're reading reviews, and looking around for the best in the area with a reasonable price range, just give G&K a call. The epitome of customer service and collaboration.

Brittany Driscoll, Co-Founder & CEO

Squeeze Massage

To put it simply, Josh Becker is second to none. Reliable, kind, creative, and funny to boot. He has guided the strategic development of our business since inception and six years later remains an invaluable partner and trusted advisor. I can't recommend him highly enough, nor find an adequate way to thank him for his counsel over the years.

Ferdinand von Galen

First Patagonia Capital Company

I have successfully been working with Gallagher & Kennedy since the early 1970's.

Jacquie Wishnewsky

Pink Jeep Tours

The team at Gallagher & Kennedy is by far the most responsive of the few dozen I have worked with in my career. They have deep experience covering all aspects of real estate law pertinent to my business. They always exhibit the utmost professionalism and ensure the transaction is not only seamless but is completed in a cost-effective manner. I have recommended many colleagues use the firm and will continue to do so.

The Santa Fe office of Gallagher & Kennedy has unparalleled knowledge and ability to work issues in New Mexico.

G&K provides outstanding evaluation of complex water issues in Arizona for industrial customers.

William N. Farran

former Vice President, General Counsel & Corporate Secretary
Innophos Holdings, Inc.

Partnering with me to anticipate issues, manage risk, and problem-solve define my relationship with Chris Leason. ...

Notably, Chris readily brings his deep experience to bear on complex matters to produce practical, actionable solutions we can evaluate and implement.

Tremendous understanding of the law and how to get results.

Client Comment

Our agency was dealing with political, accounting, and legal challenges. Our attorneys with Gallagher & Kennedy made themselves available literally 24/7 to address the continual new issues that surfaced over many months. Without their guidance and continual support, while maintaining a positive and professional approach, I am not sure we would have been successful in getting our business back on the right path.

David

Litigation

As a small business owner who was wrongfully accused of fraud, I needed an attorney who would fight as if it was his company. Not only did Kevin Neal dominate the trial, he saved my company and my family's legacy. I wish I could give him more than 5 stars!

T.J. Racica

Apache Nitrogen Products, Inc.

It has been my experience of working with G&K for over two decades, that their attorneys provide a high degree of integrity, expertise and legal insight that helps me to make informed decisions day to day on a wide range of environmental challenges.

Bill Herz

Executive Director,
National Lime Association

I have worked with Chris Leason and the team at Gallagher & Kennedy for many years. They are responsive, great with trade association meetings, members, and environmental issues, and very well connected.

Steve Schramm

CBIZ Optumas

Gallagher & Kennedy shepherded me through the most important business decision in my career and did so by listening to what I wanted to accomplish with my transaction. When prospective bidders (and ultimately the successful bidder) made requests and/or demands that were non-traditional or inconsistent with the market, [Kevin O'Malley and Chris Thompson] had the experience to know when to push back and when to acquiesce. They had the right balance of professionalism, experience, aggressiveness, and civility to get the deal done that I wanted.

Cindy Barnes

Barnes Farms, LLC

Would highly recommend David [Kimball] or Stuart [Kimball] to anyone dealing with an environmental issue. ... If I ever need to hire another attorney for anything, I will look at G&K before any of the other law firms in Arizona.

Roxane Nielsen

Prescott Brewing Company

Don Johnsen and James Connor, at Gallagher & Kennedy, have always steered us in the right direction and there has never been any litigation. ... Both attorneys are very knowledgeable in their fields. They answer our direct questions and go beyond our direct questions where more advice is appropriate. They both speak in plain English, not complicated legalese.

Michelle Freeark

Arizona Electric Power Cooperative

G&K brings a wealth of knowledge when representing us as small utility in complex NEPA analyses for linear projects.

Steve Trussell, Executive Director

Arizona Rock Products Association & Arizona Mining Association

David [Kimball] and Stuart [Kimball], of Gallagher & Kennedy have represented the Arizona Rock Products and Arizona Mining industry for the 20+ years I have worked with the Associations and they have always done an exceptional job. They are highly knowledgeable and respected.

Jeff Dunn

All City Towing

Kevin O'Malley of Gallagher & Kennedy is a very thorough and competent legal professional who deserves no less than our highest praise. Kevin's expertise in the field of Governmental Procurement was needed by our company recently and thus far has been invaluable. After an initial ramp-up period, he hit the ground running as if he knew our industry intimately. ... Kevin is focused and measured, even in the most stressful situations...

Bryan Savage, Retired Chief

Our team from Gallagher & Kennedy assisted us in a lengthy administrative law process. The attorneys were the best, most prepared, and most caring professionals I have had the pleasure to work with. Our interests became their interests and they were passionate about winning our case.

Client Comment

Gallagher & Kennedy is very knowledgeable and able to link knowledge to practical advice.

Walter Bradley

Dairy Farmers of America, Inc.

I have used Gallagher & Kennedy law firm for approximately 15 years. I particularly recommend Dal Moellenberg for our environmental issues as he not only knows the laws, he knows the regulations and is acquainted with the staff. He is also efficient in moving our issues forward. I also recommend T.J. Trujillo for legislative issues. T.J. is very familiar with the New Mexico political process and is acquainted with the legislators and their staff. He is a very good strategist.
