The attorney

Miami personal-injury attorney · Serving all of Florida
For more than 20 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.
— Emanuel Galimidi, Founder

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 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.
20 years 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. For nearly twenty years I defended insurance companies, manufacturers, and major corporations — rising from associate to shareholder and head of a national firm’s Product Liability Practice Group. 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.
Galimidi Law was built so the injured could have that same caliber of representation on their side for once — the kind the insurance companies hire. Every client works directly with a senior trial attorney, not a case manager. Someone who spent two decades inside the insurance industry — and now uses that knowledge against it. The consultation is free, and there are no fees or costs unless you recover.
