Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer and was very confident he could get my misdemeanor charge dismissed. The charge was dropped for which I’m very grateful. He and his assistant Kara were very helpful in letting me know what I needed to to provide for documentation and informative about the court proceedings. Paul has extensive experience and expertise with Virginia courts and I was very glad he was on my side to help me win my case.

Do not look any further. My case was a very complex one involving a family matter and it did not look very promising for me to have charges dropped after being served with a misdemeanor. I did my research and consulted with many attorneys before deciding to hire Paul. Right away, he made me feel at ease. He spent time with me before my trial to make sure that the testimony would go well by practicing. He fought for me in a caring manner and asked all the right questions during our trial. He is a very smooth, sharp attorney that is razor focused albeit unassuming. Needless to say, our verdict = NOT GUILTY I'm forever grateful.

Was charged with possession of drugs and paraphernalia. Paul got my charges dropped even before we got to our hearing! Amazing job, and very professional

I am happy to refer cases to Paul Galanides when I am unavailable or when his expertise favors the client's best interests. I've known Paul over ten years and know that he is a tenacious defender of rights.

Paul and Lisa are the dream team when it comes to legal representation. I was in such a rough scary time and they managed to pull me back up and get my on my feet. I needed help and that's exactly what I got. They fought for me with everything they had and I came out of it feeling so well cared for as a client. They go above and beyond in every aspect and care about their clients with fierce determination. Lisa and Paul are unlike any other duo I have ever seen work together, they balance each other out perfectly and never settle for an outcome that doesn't meet the proper standards. I cannot recommend enough to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will go to such lengths to defend you. Not only are Lisa and Paul amazing at what they do for your defense, they're also amazing people.

My wife called Mr Galanides to represent our son after having a horrible experience from another Richmond attorney. Mr Galanides did more in one week than our prior attorney did in three months. We had a meeting within hours after speaking with his law office. From the start of the meeting his experience and calm demeanor allowed us to build a trusting relationship. He was very organized/informative throughout the process of the case. We were very blessed to have found Mr Galanides and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone needing an ethical, passionate and experienced lawyer. The results of our case were outstanding!

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer. Paul walked me through all the steps I needed to take after receiving a speeding ticket, as well as all the steps he would take. He is very professional, knowledgeable, detail oriented and patient. He was quick to respond to any questions I had, and I'm grateful for how he advocated for me. I appreciate all his hard work!

After just a few minutes in court, my case was completely expunged. I highly recommend Mr. Galanides. He spent considerable time in consultation and made sure all questions were answered.

I had a serious traffic violation and did not think that I would be able to avoid a conviction. I researched firms/attorneys on the internet and consulted with four different attorneys about my case. Mr. Galanides was clearly the best one to represent me. He had more experience than all the others and more importantly worked on both sides of the law. Before going into private practice, he had been a Commonwealth Attorney prosecuting individuals accused of breaking the law and a Public Defender defending people accused of crimes who could not afford an attorney. This experience was not only in Virginia, but also in Kentucky. I figured two state's worth of experience was key. Once in court, it was pretty clear that Mr. Galanides had been there and done that before. He was on top of all the legal lingo that was going on. It seemed like he spends much of his time day in and day out in court. I was grateful for that. The good news was that all charges ended up being dropped. I was floored. I think he just knew what to do to get me out of my jam. Yes, I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal support.

While in Richmond, VA I found myself in trouble an in need of a lawyer. My friend had used Paul Galanides in the past an he contacted him to get me a bond hearing. He came to see me right away an answered all my questions and told me in detail what to expect. Paul called me a few days before my court date an told me he had found some beneficial information in the police report. My case was dismissed a few days later. I would definitely recommend Paul to anyone needing a lawyer.

Paul and Lisa are the dream team when it comes to legal representation. I was in such a rough scary time and they managed to pull me back up and get my on my feet. I needed help and that's exactly what I got. They fought for me with everything they had and I came out of it feeling so well cared for as a client. They go above and beyond in every aspect and care about their clients with fierce determination. Lisa and Paul are unlike any other duo I have ever seen work together, they balance each other out perfectly and never settle for an outcome that doesn't meet the proper standards. I cannot recommend enough to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will go to such lengths to defend you. Not only are Lisa and Paul amazing at what they do for your defense, they're also amazing people.

My wife called Mr Galanides to represent our son after having a horrible experience from another Richmond attorney. Mr Galanides did more in one week than our prior attorney did in three months. We had a meeting within hours after speaking with his law office. From the start of the meeting his experience and calm demeanor allowed us to build a trusting relationship. He was very organized/informative throughout the process of the case. We were very blessed to have found Mr Galanides and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone needing an ethical, passionate and experienced lawyer. The results of our case were outstanding!

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer. Paul walked me through all the steps I needed to take after receiving a speeding ticket, as well as all the steps he would take. He is very professional, knowledgeable, detail oriented and patient. He was quick to respond to any questions I had, and I'm grateful for how he advocated for me. I appreciate all his hard work!

After just a few minutes in court, my case was completely expunged. I highly recommend Mr. Galanides. He spent considerable time in consultation and made sure all questions were answered.

I had a serious traffic violation and did not think that I would be able to avoid a conviction. I researched firms/attorneys on the internet and consulted with four different attorneys about my case. Mr. Galanides was clearly the best one to represent me. He had more experience than all the others and more importantly worked on both sides of the law. Before going into private practice, he had been a Commonwealth Attorney prosecuting individuals accused of breaking the law and a Public Defender defending people accused of crimes who could not afford an attorney. This experience was not only in Virginia, but also in Kentucky. I figured two state's worth of experience was key. Once in court, it was pretty clear that Mr. Galanides had been there and done that before. He was on top of all the legal lingo that was going on. It seemed like he spends much of his time day in and day out in court. I was grateful for that. The good news was that all charges ended up being dropped. I was floored. I think he just knew what to do to get me out of my jam. Yes, I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal support.

While in Richmond, VA I found myself in trouble an in need of a lawyer. My friend had used Paul Galanides in the past an he contacted him to get me a bond hearing. He came to see me right away an answered all my questions and told me in detail what to expect. Paul called me a few days before my court date an told me he had found some beneficial information in the police report. My case was dismissed a few days later. I would definitely recommend Paul to anyone needing a lawyer.

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer and was very confident he could get my misdemeanor charge dismissed. The charge was dropped for which I’m very grateful. He and his assistant Kara were very helpful in letting me know what I needed to to provide for documentation and informative about the court proceedings. Paul has extensive experience and expertise with Virginia courts and I was very glad he was on my side to help me win my case.

Do not look any further. My case was a very complex one involving a family matter and it did not look very promising for me to have charges dropped after being served with a misdemeanor. I did my research and consulted with many attorneys before deciding to hire Paul. Right away, he made me feel at ease. He spent time with me before my trial to make sure that the testimony would go well by practicing. He fought for me in a caring manner and asked all the right questions during our trial. He is a very smooth, sharp attorney that is razor focused albeit unassuming. Needless to say, our verdict = NOT GUILTY I'm forever grateful.

Once in court, it was pretty clear that Mr. Galanides had been there and done that before. He was on top of all the legal lingo that was going on. It seemed like he spends much of his time day in and day out in court. I was grateful for that. The good news was that all charges ended up being dropped. I was floored. I think he just knew what to do to get me out of my jam. Yes, I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal support.

While in Richmond, VA I found myself in trouble an in need of a lawyer. My friend had used Paul Galanides in the past an he contacted him to get me a bond hearing. He came to see me right away an answered all my questions and told me in detail what to expect. Paul called me a few days before my court date an told me he had found some beneficial information in the police report. My case was dismissed a few days later. I would definitely recommend Paul to anyone needing a lawyer.

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer and was very confident he could get my misdemeanor charge dismissed. The charge was dropped for which I’m very grateful. He and his assistant Kara were very helpful in letting me know what I needed to to provide for documentation and informative about the court proceedings. Paul has extensive experience and expertise with Virginia courts and I was very glad he was on my side to help me win my case.

Do not look any further. My case was a very complex one involving a family matter and it did not look very promising for me to have charges dropped after being served with a misdemeanor. I did my research and consulted with many attorneys before deciding to hire Paul. Right away, he made me feel at ease. He spent time with me before my trial to make sure that the testimony would go well by practicing. He fought for me in a caring manner and asked all the right questions during our trial. He is a very smooth, sharp attorney that is razor focused albeit unassuming. Needless to say, our verdict = NOT GUILTY I'm forever grateful.

I am happy to refer cases to Paul Galanides when I am unavailable or when his expertise favors the client's best interests. I've known Paul over ten years and know that he is a tenacious defender of rights.

Paul and Lisa are the dream team when it comes to legal representation. I was in such a rough scary time and they managed to pull me back up and get my on my feet. I needed help and that's exactly what I got. They fought for me with everything they had and I came out of it feeling so well cared for as a client. They go above and beyond in every aspect and care about their clients with fierce determination. Lisa and Paul are unlike any other duo I have ever seen work together, they balance each other out perfectly and never settle for an outcome that doesn't meet the proper standards. I cannot recommend enough to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will go to such lengths to defend you. Not only are Lisa and Paul amazing at what they do for your defense, they're also amazing people.

My wife called Mr Galanides to represent our son after having a horrible experience from another Richmond attorney. Mr Galanides did more in one week than our prior attorney did in three months. We had a meeting within hours after speaking with his law office. From the start of the meeting his experience and calm demeanor allowed us to build a trusting relationship. He was very organized/informative throughout the process of the case. We were very blessed to have found Mr Galanides and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone needing an ethical, passionate and experienced lawyer. The results of our case were outstanding!

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer. Paul walked me through all the steps I needed to take after receiving a speeding ticket, as well as all the steps he would take. He is very professional, knowledgeable, detail oriented and patient. He was quick to respond to any questions I had, and I'm grateful for how he advocated for me. I appreciate all his hard work!

I had a serious traffic violation and did not think that I would be able to avoid a conviction. I researched firms/attorneys on the internet and consulted with four different attorneys about my case. Mr. Galanides was clearly the best one to represent me. He had more experience than all the others and more importantly worked on both sides of the law.

I am happy to refer cases to Paul Galanides when I am unavailable or when his expertise favors the client's best interests. I've known Paul over ten years and know that he is a tenacious defender of rights.

Paul and Lisa are the dream team when it comes to legal representation. I was in such a rough scary time and they managed to pull me back up and get my on my feet. I needed help and that's exactly what I got. They fought for me with everything they had and I came out of it feeling so well cared for as a client. They go above and beyond in every aspect and care about their clients with fierce determination. Lisa and Paul are unlike any other duo I have ever seen work together, they balance each other out perfectly and never settle for an outcome that doesn't meet the proper standards. I cannot recommend enough to anyone who is looking for a lawyer who will go to such lengths to defend you. Not only are Lisa and Paul amazing at what they do for your defense, they're also amazing people.

My wife called Mr Galanides to represent our son after having a horrible experience from another Richmond attorney. Mr Galanides did more in one week than our prior attorney did in three months. We had a meeting within hours after speaking with his law office. From the start of the meeting his experience and calm demeanor allowed us to build a trusting relationship. He was very organized/informative throughout the process of the case. We were very blessed to have found Mr Galanides and his staff. I would recommend him to anyone needing an ethical, passionate and experienced lawyer. The results of our case were outstanding!

Paul Galanides is an excellent lawyer. Paul walked me through all the steps I needed to take after receiving a speeding ticket, as well as all the steps he would take. He is very professional, knowledgeable, detail oriented and patient. He was quick to respond to any questions I had, and I'm grateful for how he advocated for me. I appreciate all his hard work!

After just a few minutes in court, my case was completely expunged. I highly recommend Mr. Galanides. He spent considerable time in consultation and made sure all questions were answered.

I had a serious traffic violation and did not think that I would be able to avoid a conviction. I researched firms/attorneys on the internet and consulted with four different attorneys about my case. Mr. Galanides was clearly the best one to represent me. He had more experience than all the others and more importantly worked on both sides of the law. Before going into private practice, he had been a Commonwealth Attorney prosecuting individuals accused of breaking the law and a Public Defender defending people accused of crimes who could not afford an attorney. This experience was not only in Virginia, but also in Kentucky. I figured two state's worth of experience was key. Once in court, it was pretty clear that Mr. Galanides had been there and done that before. He was on top of all the legal lingo that was going on. It seemed like he spends much of his time day in and day out in court. I was grateful for that. The good news was that all charges ended up being dropped. I was floored. I think he just knew what to do to get me out of my jam. Yes, I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal support.

While in Richmond, VA I found myself in trouble an in need of a lawyer. My friend had used Paul Galanides in the past an he contacted him to get me a bond hearing. He came to see me right away an answered all my questions and told me in detail what to expect. Paul called me a few days before my court date an told me he had found some beneficial information in the police report. My case was dismissed a few days later. I would definitely recommend Paul to anyone needing a lawyer.
