I have absolutely zero regrets in retaining Bob Jr. for my contested child custody and divorce case. In some ways it was the single best decision I made in a very emotionally draining and traumatic time. As a father I can tell you that whether you believe there is bias in the family courts or not you will be facing an uphill battle. In my case I was also dealing with the heightened emotional betrayal of infidelity and false allegations of abuse which made negotiating or even communicating with the other side that much harder. Bob Jr. proved to be a masterful diplomat and is the litigator you need in your corner if and when things do get heated. Without his counsel I certainly would have made several more mistakes. His reputation is important to him so he practices with integrity and has earned the respect of his colleagues and the courts. Reputation means a lot. In addition, Bob Jr. was cognizant of keeping fees down vs. trying to stir things up which is far too common occurrence with some legal counsel. If I didn’t need something he would clearly explain why and how it would save me money. I never felt like an ATM to him and he reached out to me via text message and mobile phone. When I needed him he was always highly accessible and his support staff top notch. When picking the right legal counsel support staff is often overlooked and that is a mistake. You will be dealing with the paralegals quite often and their attention to detail and ability to communicate effectively as an in between cannot be overstated. I highly recommend Bob Jr, especially if you are a father facing divorce in a no fault state and have children as was the case for me. He is a champion for father’s rights and my result was better than I probably should have expected considering the laws in Iowa. Can you find cheaper representation sure, but you get what you pay for. When you are dealing in matters that may decide your financial future, quality of life and most importantly access to your children Bob Jr. was worth every penny. Don’t be delegated to that of visitor in the lives of your children. I will use Bob Jr. for any legal proceedings I have in the future. I’ve already sent a close friend to him. Five enthusiastic stars.

Mr. Gallagher was there for me. He knew the emotional aspect of my situation and really cared. Listened to my wishes and kept my boys best interest in mind which was most important to me. Would recommend anytime.

Bob Jr. represented me in a real estate transaction that was rather complex. Without his expertise, efforts, and communication; the deal would have cost us thousands of dollars more. He is responsive and knowledgeable in both personal and business law, and I highly recommend him!

I have hired Mr. Gallagher on several occasions. He is organized and efficient. My last custody hearing came back with results better than I could have expected. I highly recommend his services in any matter.

Mr. Gallagher protected me and looked out of my best interests at all times. He did a great job of explaining all my options to me. He kept me well informed as to what I should do and the purpose for doing it. At my hearing he did a great job of explaining my case in examination and cross examination. He made our message very clear to the judge. His support staff was very helpful and great to work with. I found a great lawyer when I needed one the most.

I had Bob as my attorney in 2010. He was fantastic as a cut throat attorney. My only issue with him is that he is quite expensive. More than most. I have recommended him as an attorney to others in family law cases And I will continue to do so Iif asked. He did get me what I wanted for the most part.
