Las Vegas, NV personal injury attorney Keith E. Galliher talks about what makes his firm different and what you should look for in hiring a personal injury attorney. He believes his firm stands out from others because it operates as a boutique practice where all cases are handled personally by him, from start to finish. As the head of the firm, he ensures that every stage of a case receives his direct involvement, offering clients a seamless and personalized experience.
From the initial consultation, his firm manages the entire process, including guiding clients through their injury recovery, communicating with physicians, preparing demand packages after treatment, and negotiating settlements with insurance carriers. If a settlement cannot be reached, he personally takes the case into litigation and sees it through trial.
Unlike many firms that rely on case managers or non-attorneys to negotiate claims, he handles all negotiations himself. With over 50 years of experience dealing with insurance carriers, he brings a wealth of expertise and a strong reputation for being aggressive in pursuing claims. His established relationships with insurance companies often facilitate fair settlements before litigation. However, if an insurer refuses to pay or disputes the claim, he is fully prepared to litigate aggressively, having done so successfully many times.
He advises clients to be cautious of large firms that heavily advertise on billboards, TV, or radio. Often, these firms operate more like businesses, with limited attorney involvement in client cases. They frequently assign cases to non-attorney case managers, delegate litigation to associates, or worse, refer cases to outside attorneys unknown to the client.
In contrast, his firm takes a hands-on approach. Clients work with him directly throughout the entire process, from the beginning of the claim to its resolution, ensuring continuity, trust, and personalized representation.
