The team at Gallagher & Kennedy walked me through my acquisition step-by-step so that there were no surprises. They brought in the necessary experts from other practice areas to ensure we had the best team possible and worked seamlessly together to get me a much improved outcome. Their advice at every step of the process was spot-on, up to and including the post-acquisition process and ensuing earn-out process.

… Gallagher & Kennedy [does] outstanding work … and are what I consider to be the best environmental law firm in the Southwest. [They] offer a wide range of experts … from air and water quality to hazardous waste and Superfund program areas at both the state and federal level. Gallagher & Kennedy is in a class by themselves in their ability to advocate on behalf of their clients, having honed extensive, influential, and well regarded relationships with regulators, legislators, trade groups, and key government officials.

The strength of the Gallagher & Kennedy mergers and acquisitions team is that they take the time to understand the business and goals for the client's acquisition. Every team member was up to speed and available to answer questions anytime. M&A work does not unfold at a 9-to-5 pace and the Gallagher & Kennedy team was always available, especially during the critical phases of the deal.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
