Robert Gallagher is a personal injury lawyer who fights for regular folks against powerful corporate insurance companies. He is extremely down-to-earth and easy to talk to—the kind of lawyer anyone would want on their side.
While the majority of personal injury cases are settled out of court, Bob prepares every case as if it is going to trial. He has taken over 50 cases to trial throughout New York State. In the past, Bob represented defendants on behalf of their insurance companies. That work left him feeling empty as he witnessed insurance companies treating injured people like a number without concern for the defendants they were supposed to protect. So now Bob represents regular folks in the fight against powerful corporate insurance companies.
Bob has more than 30 years of in-depth experience in auto accident cases, labor law, construction accidents, product liability cases, and property injuries. He is licensed in New York State and Maryland and is admitted to the US Second Circuit Court of Appeals and the District Courts for the Southern, Northern, and Western Districts of New York.
