The attorney
For years, the world’s largest companies and their insurers hired me to defend them. I know how they decide what your injury is worth, and how they’ll build their defense to pay you less — because I used to be the one doing it. Now I use that same knowledge and skill to protect your rights.

Why I started Galimidi Law
I founded Galimidi Law on a simple idea: the injured should have access to the same caliber of representation that insurers and large corporations take for granted. For nearly two decades I provided exactly that representation — to the other side. I built this firm to bring it to the people who need it most.
Nearly two decades on the other side
A shareholder at one of the most successful, fastest-growing defense firms in the country, with offices in Miami, New York, and Los Angeles.
Rose from associate to head of the firm’s Product Liability Practice Group, leading high-stakes litigation for major corporate clients.
Routinely litigated catastrophic injury, wrongful death, sexual assault, and class-action defense — the cases insurers fight hardest.
Why I switched
After years of helping corporations limit what they paid injured people, I decided that insight belonged with the injured. Today I use everything the defense side taught me — the tactics, the valuations, the pressure points — for the people insurers used to call me to stop.
Experience
Most plaintiff lawyers learn how insurers think from the outside. I learned it from the inside, defending insurance companies, manufacturers, and major corporations. I was in the rooms where adjusters set reserves, where defense strategy is built, and where the real decision gets made about what a claim is worth.
That experience changes how I handle your case. I can tell a routine offer from a serious one. When an insurer disputes how an injury happened, minimizes its severity, or simply delays, I recognize the tactic because I spent years on the other end of it. I know where a defense file is strong and where it is quietly weak — and I prepare every case as if it is going to trial, because that is what earns a number reflecting what you actually lost.
That is what I bring to every case here. Every client works directly with a senior trial attorney, not a case manager — someone who used to sit on the insurers’ side of the table and now uses what he learned there for you. The consultation is free, and there are no fees or costs unless you recover.
My work has been recognized by my peers and the profession: selection to Super Lawyers every year from 2023 through 2026, and Martindale-Hubbell’s AV Preeminent rating — its highest peer rating for legal ability and ethical standards.
