Robert Boatman, RivaLee Ferland, and Karen Trumpower were and amazing team. They helped my underaged 17 year old son at the time in a motorcycle accident. They were very informative and was always there to answer any questions that arise. I highly recommend them and will always use this law firm with anything in the future! We are forever thankful!

Ted M.

I came across Matt Boatman at Gallagher and Kennedy [after a car accident]. The initial phone call was very easy, stress free, and thorough. Matt explained to me the steps I needed to take, the length of the process to recoup damages, and documentation I should keep track of. … Maria [Raciti] was approachable, compassionate, and knowledgeable, which put me at ease during what was still a difficult time. She took the time to explain everything in detail, patiently answered all my questions, and kept me updated throughout the process. … Because of Maria’s hard work, attention to detail, and determination, she was able to secure a settlement that was 25% higher than I had been previously offered. I was very grateful for the outcome and for her dedication.

Brooke Watton

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

I can't say enough good things about the personal injury team at Gallagher & Kennedy- particularly Shannon Clark. I worked with Shannon [Clark] after an awful car accident left me bed ridden for almost 2 years, completely derailing my start as a vibrant new, young attorney myself. He went incredibly above and beyond in every way. Professionally, he was a fierce negotiator—a true shark in the best sense—ensuring I received the compensation I deserved. Personally, he was a beacon of support and understanding, proving to be not just an exceptional attorney, but also a wonderful human being during a challenging time. He never viewed me as a payday but rather he and his entire team and his family treated me like my pain really did matter, encouraging me during every step of my recovery. His dedication and compassion were evident throughout the entire process, and he consistently demonstrated an unwavering commitment to my case. If you’re looking for someone who combines exceptional legal expertise with genuine care and support, you can’t go wrong with Shannon [Clark] or anyone on his team. I am beyond grateful for everything he has done for me and cannot recommend him highly enough!

Russell Rhodes

I hired Gallagher & Kennedy to represent me for a motorcycle accident I was in. Maria Raciti (my attorney) has been awesome!! Very professional, has informed me promptly about any changes in my case. Responds to my emails about questions I have about my case almost immediately. She is very nice and easy to talk to. I would highly recommend her!!

Amy Beal

After I lost my son and speaking to a trusted friend, I retained Bill King at Gallagher & Kennedy. From the very first in-person meeting we had, the whole G&K team-including Bill [King], Shannon Clark, Bob Boatman and Eleanor Shaffer-provided first rate representation and worked tirelessly to pursue my case, while also keeping me informed and involved every step of the way. Not only were they great advocates but they were also truly understanding, compassionate, empathetic and caring people during this difficult time. Previously, I had no experience with personal injury lawsuits and was unsure of what to expect. I could not have been more pleased with G&K's representation, professionalism and advocacy. I would highly recommend Bill King and the entire team at G&K to anyone who needs the attention, care and legal skill they demonstrated in my case.

Joshua Haggard

We love these guys and gals. Thanks for being so amazing!!

John Conner

Exceptional Service Beyond Borders! From the moment we were referred to this firm by a friend, it became clear that their reputation for excellent service was well-deserved. Despite being out of state and knowing that we wouldn't ultimately be able to become their clients due to geographic limitations, they offered us tremendous support and guidance. Especially Maria Raciti. She was a lighthouse for us in the middle of a storm that we were lost in. She was the kindness that we needed in that moment and we'll never forget what she did for us. The team was incredibly helpful as well in explaining our options and navigating the complex legal landscape, ensuring we understood every step of the process. Their commitment to our case was remarkable—they not only provided expert advice but also connected us with a fantastic attorney in our own state, who was just as diligent and competent. Their professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond even without the incentive of a direct client relationship truly set them apart. I cannot recommend this firm highly enough for anyone seeking trustworthy and effective legal assistance. They are truly a firm that cares about people, not just cases.

Cashmere Davis

Thank you to Matt [Boatman] and RivaLee's [Ferland's] team for going above and beyond for my suit. I appreciate their hard work and legal advice, they also gave updates all the way through the process. I definitely recommend and refer them to my friends and family.

Zach Smith

I had a fantastic experience with Gallagher & Kennedy when it represented me in my personal injury lawsuit. Maria Raciti was the attorney who worked with me on my case. She was kind, sympathetic, and an incredible communicator regarding the status of my case and case strategy. And she fought incredibly hard to get me as much compensation as she could every step of the way. In sum, every interaction I had with Ms. Raciti and with the law firm was a great experience. I highly recommend choosing this firm!

A special thanks to Matt Boatman, Maria Raciti... .

Thank you to Maria for your support - your kindness is truly amazing. A special thanks to Angel Medina for helping me through this review process. Also, thank you to Matt and Bob Boatman who met with me the first time and a great thanks to Christine who always kept me updated throughout my case.

Dillon Shnitzer

Was involved in a car accident, being in shock I didn't know what to do and sought legal representation. I wanted professionals, not "billboard" lawyers with radio commercial jingles. I was more than impressed with Bill King's legal representation, he guided me through the process and gave constant updates on my case - eventually awarding me a settlement much larger than what the insurance was offering.

Jason Z.

I had the pleasure working with Shannon [Clark], who truly transformed my arduous ordeal with the insurance company into a seamless process. His reassuring demeanor immediately put me at ease, making the entire experience notably more manageable. Without hesitation, I would wholeheartedly recommend Shannon's expertise. A perfect 10 out of 10.

Ty Roberts

I suffered serious personal injuries after a drunk driver ran a red light and collided into the driver’s side of my car at a high rate of speed. I didn’t know Bill [King] previously, who was referred to me by an old family friend, but I consider myself lucky to have landed in his good hands. From day one, Bill was the consummate advocate. He kept me informed, explained my options step-by-step, and was available anytime I had any questions. His tenacity resulted in a significant settlement from both the drunk driver and the bar that had served the driver. I had a great experience with Bill and everyone else at Gallagher & Kennedy and would highly recommend Bill and his firm.

Rose Canarini

I want to thank Shannon L. Clark for giving me a 5 star service from him and his team. I went through a horrific time in my life hit by a drunk driver in 2023. The entire team Karin and Angel were a huge help during a very difficult time. My older sister helped me when I couldn't even move my neck to narrow down the best attorney. She had said hire Shannon Clark he is the one that stands out from all other Lawyers. Thank you Shannon and team.

Kristen Stewart

Bill King represented me in a consumer class action lawsuit and was ultimately able to obtain a court-approved class action settlement that afforded relief to hundreds of my fellow classmates. He did a great job navigating the mess the defendants left behind. I would highly recommend him.

Great experience with Matt Boatman and his team they made a stressful situation very comfortable an easy hands on experience for me. Thank you again.

Blake Benedict

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

As a rule, I don't give reviews...ever. I am making an exception in this case. I had a motorcycle accident, where I was very lucky to keep my leg...and my life. In my search, for the BEST lawyer...Gallagher & Kennedy was my first stop, of 6 scheduled appointments with potential lawyers that day. It was immediately apparent...I already found my team. During my rehabilitation, including 2 major surgeries, I was consistently updated about the details pertaining to my case. The best way I can describe this legal team is...Taking care of business! They got me a 7 figure settlement...In Less than 1 year...just as I got back on my feet, and walking around again! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!! If I ever need ANY legal assistance, as long as I live, I already got my team. Just the fact that I am making this review, should tell you, all you need to know. 6 outta 5 Stars!!! You gave me my Dream Life!!

Corina Mari

You never want to find yourself needing an injury attorney, but if you do, having someone with experience, vast knowledge of the law, and a caring way of dealing with you, is beyond necessary! I found all of that and MORE with Maria Raciti and Matt Boatman. Dealing with Maria through this process has truly been a pleasure, and quite a relief! All I had to do was let them handle it. I always felt informed, cared about, and fought for. I can’t say enough about the level of appreciation I have for their hard work and dedication to get the absolute best result possible. And that’s exactly what they did. Thank you!

Dave Nixon

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

This testimonial is a culmination of over two decades of working with G&K. In 2003, I tragically lost my wife in a car accident. A friend's brother, employed at G&K, reached out to offer support. Through their assistance. I was introduced to Shannon Clark, who assumed the lead role in managing several lawsuits that included 2 large well known companies. Despite being the same age as myself (28) Shannon exuded a maturity, knowledge and professionalism beyond his years. Within approximately two years, all legal matters were successfully resolved. Since then, Shannon and the G&K team have provided invaluable assistance not only to me but also to several acquaintances. Their exceptional professionalism and dedication are truly commendable and appreciated. Unlike so many other attorneys that are all over TV, radio and billboards, G&K's modest advertising approach is a testament to their confidence in their exceptional services. Similar to Hell's Kitchen which relies on reputation rather than extensive television advertising, G&K's excellence speaks for itself.

Nancy Johnson

I am very pleased with my experience with Gallagher & Kennedy. They were very professional, knowledgeable, and informative throughout the process. I cannot say enough good things about working with Eleanor and the team. I am thankful that I had them working for me. They stayed on top of all inquiries that came in and kept me updated. They were wonderful to explain and answer my many questions keeping my best interest at the forefront. Highly recommend them to anyone needing an injury lawyer, they are the best!

Kevin Neal is more than just an attorney; he is a dedicated ally committed to achieving the best possible outcomes for his clients.

They were absolutely wonderful I couldn't imagine going through this with anyone else!

Robert Dalton

Professional, practical approach with impeccable follow thru…5 Stars in every way….

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

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.

Andrew F. Diamond, President

Angry Crab Franchise, LLC (franchisor for Angry Crab Shack Restaurants)

I was referred to Josh Becker and his team at Gallagher & Kennedy to assist in the development of a national and international franchising business. Josh has provided the business strategy and legal guidance a young company needs as it navigates through growth and expansion on a national and international level. Over the years, our relationship with G&K has grown from franchising to include a number of additional business matters including company formation, real estate, and business dispute resolution. We feel well advised and represented by Gallagher & Kennedy whenever we need their advice, counsel, and representation.

Chantel Padilla

My son was struck on his motorcycle by a careless driver [and] the injuries sustained were life threatening. … From the moment we became clients with G&K, we were treated with dignity, concern and respect. My first point of contact was [intake specialist] Angel Medina, he was efficient and on point with communication and gathering everything that was needed. Robert Boatman explained in detail the entire process and answered all my questions honestly and thoroughly. Finally, Maria Raciti officially represented our case and was absolutely top notch! … I 100% recommend this firm and if you get an opportunity to retain Maria Raciti, know you will have a warrior on your side!

They have deep experience covering all aspects of real estate law pertinent to my business.

I have recommended many colleagues use the firm and will continue to do so.

Wade Thornock

We didn’t know Shannon [Clark] or Bill [King] before we were referred to them by a family friend shortly after our serious auto accident. Shannon and Bill were patient in explaining our options and making sure we knew important details before making key choices. They were extremely professional and knowledgeable through every step of the process. We really felt like we had experts and advocates on our side. They got us a great result.

Vicki James

If you are looking for knowledgeable attorneys, seek Gallagher & Kennedy Law Firm. Shannon Clark and Eleanor J. Shaffer have provided legal representation in my mother’s case.

Kathryn Watterson

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

Shannon Clark is an exceptional attorney-definitely one of the best you can find. His whole team is amazing. I especially want to also praise Ashley Fitzgibbons for her dedication to my cause. Shannon’s ability to understand the depth of an intricate and specific healthcare issue and identify the legal recourse was awesome to witness. His experience is obvious in every interaction. ... I was referred to Shannon as “the best” in the business for my situation by another top AZ attorney. I am so grateful to Shannon for taking my case and for helping me get through a terrible situation.

Matt Bard

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

After sustaining injuries in a bicycle-auto crash, I was having immense difficulties in getting the at-fault insurance company to respond or take action. A friend recommended Shannon as a reliable lawyer, so I reached out. Shannon Clark and Maria Raciti stepped in and took fantastic care of me throughout the case. They were competent, honest, timely, and pleasant. Ethical, competent people are hard to find; Shannon and Maria impressed me on both accounts. I most certainly recommend them.

If I could give this gentleman a six-star review I would very well do that after representing me after I was struck by a vehicle while riding my bike.

If you ever have the chance to have this gentleman/ attorney represent you in your case then consider that a blessing...

Jake Gray

Catastrophic Personal Injury Client

Bill [King] is wicked smart and experienced in his practice, yet he took the time to walk us through the process and gather our opinion before acting. Bill handled our case swiftly and professionally, always keeping us informed. He also informed us of benefits we were entitled to through our own insurance company that we never knew we had. I would highly recommend Bill (or G&K, for that matter) in the unfortunate event you need legal representation after an accident. Thank you, Bill!

Steve Schramm

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.

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.

We know that government contracting is a complex business environment. When we have issues that necessitate expert legal assistance we will turn again to Kevin and G&K. We have found they know our business, they know the process thoroughly, and Kevin is well-connected in this area of government contracting.

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...

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.

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.
