The Gallagher & Kennedy firm handled things professionally and efficiently. I felt very well represented throughout the process. The team assigned to me did their best to make themselves available outside of scheduled meetings. Overall a great experience.

Steve Boatwright is a great M&A attorney and his associated team did a great job with our sale of the business. The main reason we went with G&K was Steve Boatwright.

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.

Sarah Clifford, Esq., of Gallagher & Kennedy, has come through for our family once again [to administer a Trust]. … Each and every step along the way Sarah provided expert advice, an amazing quality work product, and a level of efficiency that was stunning. Our family owes Sarah a tremendous debt of gratitude and we will utilize her expertise for any Estate Planning legal needs that we may have in the future. From our entire family, thank you Sarah!

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 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.

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.

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.
