Ray Gallo

Firm: Gallo LLP
100 Pine Street, Suite 1250 , San Francisco , California 94111
Practice Areas: General Practice, Litigation, Litigation
Ray Gallo's results at trial have been outstanding, as is his ability to create and negotiate great deals for his clients that work for everyone. Blessed with uncommon legal analytical skills, Ray succeeds by adding what many others don't have: a disarming and friendly demeanor, great business sense, great sales skills, and the instincts and touch of a great negotiator. As a result, his clients recommend him highly, as do his former opponents.. Most recently, Ray has begun to revolutionize aggregate litigation (class action practice) by developoing and promoting a technological alternative to class certification.  Leverage makes justice possible where it otherwise is not.
