I had a highly disappointing experience with Edward Galante as my attorney. Throughout my case, there was a consistent lack of communication and responsiveness. Critical questions about my legal matters went unanswered, and I often felt sidelined and ignored. His approach seemed more focused on closing the case quickly rather than addressing the issues at hand, leading to unresolved discrepancies and unnecessary frustration. I would not recommend his services if you are looking for an attorney who provides clear guidance, timely communication, and dedicated attention to your case.

Mr. Galante and Abby were very compassionate, patient and helpful in my divorce. They understood my angle of wanting to offer reconciliation first and were willing to try my ideas while offering very sound advice and experience. They answered all of my questions, even the silly ones, with patience and care. They answered when I called or got back to me asap. They also continued to encourage me through the divorce when my ex-wife had rejected reconciliation and they had made the rest of the process smooth and in the best interest of both parties. Words can’t express how grateful I am to God that He led me to Mr. Galante. I would recommend Mr. Galante to anybody who is looking for a lawyer that will invest time, compassion, and understanding into their situation.

Edward was prompt in meeting with me (I had less than one week to be in court when I contacted him). He immediately addressed the matter at hand. I believe some lawyers stall this process (whether intentionally or unintentionally) when it is not necessary. My case was a minor civil matter and yet Edward treated me as if it were a case just as important as any other. As a teacher, I appreciate this immensely as I know there are wealthier clients he could be giving his attention to. This is a man with a presence made for the courtroom (and courtroom etiquette that stems from over 45 years of experience)! At the same time as we were waiting to be called into our hearing, he was very personable and a joy to be with during what could have been a stressful time. For four years I have been scared to go to court, and now I feel confident I have someone on my side who will do their best for me! I couldn't be happier.

We used Mr. Galante to represent our son. He was professional and under the circumstances did a very good job.

A year ago I started my legal adventure with Edward over Child Custody. Through the whole experience he was very understanding, committed, and hardworking when it came to my case. As emotional as a case like mine could be, He was always very reassuring and confident that what we were doing was going to be worth it. And by the time we reached trial,one year later, it was. Before Ed I had interviewed other Attorneys and all were very cut and dry and obviously money driven. When I met Edward it was obvious right away that he was passionate and family oriented and I told him before our consultation was even over that I was hiring him. Our Trial was only a few days ago and I’ve already given his information to others who are going through family struggles like I was. He worked so hard for me and I absolutely was a pain in the rear, but I could not appreciate him more for how hard he worked and fought for my Family. Thank you Ed for your dedication and spirit, and your ability to make this horrible life experience for me finally see some light at the end of the tunnel! I highly recommended this Gentalman if you are looking for honesty and hardworking attitude, especially if your reasons are for your family! Thank you again so so SO much!!!

He did an excellent job handing our adoption. He was very thorough and handled everything with efficiency and dedication. We were pleased to have used his services.

I would not recommend this attorney. He initially handled my divorce for $1000.00 and did a great job. My ex-husband re-opened the case with false accusations and I again retained Mr .Galante's services to handle the matter. I was required to pay a retainer of $3250, which seemed reasonable because we thought we were going to trial. We ended up settling in an hour-long mediation. After the mediation I asked Mr. Galante about a refund and he stated a check would be mailed. A month went by and I got nothing. I emailed and called again. Again was told a check would be mailed, and nothing. Another month went by and I finally sent an email saying I was going to stop by the office to pick up a check. I then received an email from his secretary stating that there was no refund due and all of the $3250 had been used. In all this time I did not receive one bill, ledger, or anything. I am taking the matter to the Florida Bar for a thorough investigation.
