The attorney
Emanuel Galimidi
For years, the world’s largest companies and their insurance companies 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
Everyone deserves the firepower the insurance companies already have.
I started Galimidi Law on a simple idea. Injured people deserve the same level of lawyer that insurance companies and big corporations take for granted. For nearly two decades, I was that lawyer for them. I built this firm to be that lawyer for you.
Nearly two decades on the other side
I learned the insurance playbook from the inside.
Shareholder at a national defense firm
A shareholder at one of the most successful, fastest-growing defense firms in the country, with offices in Miami, New York, and Los Angeles.
Head of Product Liability
Rose from associate to head of the firm’s Product Liability Practice Group, leading high-stakes lawsuits for major corporate clients.
Catastrophic cases
Regularly defended catastrophic injury, wrongful death, sexual assault, and class-action cases in court — the cases insurance companies fight hardest.
Why I switched
Same knowledge. Opposite side.
After years of helping corporations pay injured people less, I decided that knowledge belonged with the injured. Today I use everything the defense side taught me: their tactics, how they value a claim, and where they feel the pressure. I use it for the people the insurance companies used to call me to stop.
Experience
The judgment that only comes from nearly two decades on the inside.
Most injury lawyers learn how insurance companies think from the outside. I learned it from the inside, defending insurance companies, manufacturers, and big corporations. I was in the meetings where they decide how much to set aside for a claim, how they'll fight it, and what they'll really pay.
That experience changes how I handle your case. I can tell a routine offer from a serious one. When an insurance company argues about how you got hurt, says it's not that bad, or just stalls, I know the move, because I used to make it. I know where their 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 gets you a number that matches 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 work for the insurance companies and now uses what he learned there for you. The case review is free, and there are no fees or costs unless we recover for you.
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.
