"I’m so glad I hired James Gallo. I was no longer living in Nevada, just had a baby and had a warrant out for missing a court date I was unaware I even had. I was constantly driving around in fear of being pulled over when on my way to doctor appointments. James Gallo not only took care of getting my warrant dropped but also had my case dismissed and I didn’t even have to fly back for court. If you’re thinking of hiring James to defend you, this is your sign. Just do it!"
