Mediation Attorney:
How We Help

Do you need a mediation lawyer?

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process in which a third-party neutral attempts to facilitate a resolution or compromise of a legal dispute. The mediation may be limited to discrete issues, or it may encompass the entire dispute.

In some types of cases, such as certain real estate disputes, mediation is a mandatory step in the litigation process. Regardless of whether mediation is mandatory or voluntary, it is beneficial to obtain legal counsel from an attorney who is experienced in mediation.

My company unfortunately found itself entangled in a dispute with one of our franchisees, but Tom Gallagher and his team were able to help us reach an amiable resolution without having to go through lengthy and costly arbitration. His knowledge and responsiveness gave us the confidence we needed to put together a strong argument and get the other party to see our side. Tom Gallagher is a scholar and a gentleman. Highly recommend.

My business Partner and I have been working with Gallagher and Krich for the past 8 years and have known Gallagher and Krich for over 12 years. They are incredibly knowledgeable, professional, diligent and reasonable both with their professional guidance and the way in which they conduct business. Specifically, they will talk you out of things that will end up costing you as the customer more money in the end if they don’t think it serves a solid legal or business purpose for you – akin to a mechanic explaining what is really needed vs what is nice to get done. These two have been practicing in the San Diego area for nearly 20 years and are well respected in the community by the court and other attorneys. Their record if you ask around (other attorneys) is strong and you’ll hear good things about them, so you don’t have to take my word for it. You can ask other attorneys in the San Diego community.

We would highly recommend them, especially for anything civil and/or business related.

We had the pleasure of speaking with Troy for a contractor issue we had recently. He is smart, patient, empathetic and basically the lawyer we would want to be our side for (may God forbids) any legal assistance or battle we need! The interaction we had with him was “free of charge” but we already felt his dedication and concern (he took the time to reach out and follow up on how he can assist us further) which busy lawyers would normally ask their admin or assistant to do so on their behalf. We will be sure to contact again Troy, if need be! Thank you!!

I left a voicemail for Tom late Sunday evening and received a phone call first thing the next morning. Tom was very quick to reply to any questions I had, and if he was caught up in a meeting, he was sure to return my call promptly. Tom provided sound and logical advice, during a very stressful and uncertain time. At times I asked him to be more aggressive and was often met with the pros and cons of that decision, allowing me to understand the approach and thought process behind his strategy. Ultimately he provided options for several paths for us to take, worked swiftly, and got us where we needed to be. He reached out several times to check on my sanity and make sure I was good. As someone with very high expectations, I would highly recommend his services. He provided expertise that proved to be successful, and also took the time to make sure I was emotionally solid. Tom assisted with me with a 50% / 50% ownership conflict.

i liked that a lawyer, and not a staff member, called me to get the details and he gave me his opinion of what his initial thoughts are about my case.

What was thought to be a simple breach of contract turned into a nightmare. Through their tenacity and their deep knowledge of the law, we were successful. There is no reason to look any further as you will not get any better representation than this firm. I highly recommend them and strongly suggest that if you are considering starting a business or are already managing one, this firm will guide you, avoiding the troubled waters businesses sometimes find themselves in.

Johnny Nitti helped us with our estate plan. He was very meticulous while drafting the plan and spent enough time to explain the details to us. He filed the deed with county recorder and paid for the fees himself. Overall, Johnny did a great job and we definitely plan to work with him in the future for any updates to our EP.
