Mr Galvin helped me in a case involving a securities broker who put me in investments that were inappropriate for someone in my situation. I contacted other attorneys who "did not want the case." Mr. Galvin took the time to ask a few questions and was able to find a way to go forward, resulting in a very fair settlement in my favor. I would recommend Mr. Galvin to anyone who needs ethical, speedy, and intelligent legal services .
