Rich Gallegos

Rich took my case as a public defender back in 2017 -2018 He took his time with my case and fought for me I highly recommend him!

Rich is badass, he fought for me like I was family and my charges were reduced I highly recommend him. He cares. I will also mention that Jodi Slater is amazing as well very kind and answered all my questions and made sure I was up to date on my case and dates that follow. She was also very nice about securing the rest of the payment I owed them and tried to push me to get that paid before late fees acquired. I see a lot of negative stuff about them but I did not have that experience. 10/10 would hire him again.

Call to inquire with him about a case for my son. He was extremely helpful. Thanks Rich

This man is a clown, arrogant, egomaniac, and condescending. I had to keep reminding myself that I was his client you’d think he would communicate professionally and be in your corner. All he did was act like somehow everything is my fault and he could’ve done things so differently had I done something other than how it plays out, meanwhile he forgets previous statements he made and massively contradicts himself in this charade that he’s constantly on. not sure what I paid for here. Maybe ask for him as a court ordered Free lawyer, I’m sure the results are the same. Respectfully I wouldn’t recommend him. This is an anonymous account. Thanks.

Rich Gallegos and his staff as well as his assistant at the time Kathy. We’re excellent on my auto medical court proceedings. Many hours and years were spent on my case. My calls were returned, my emails were answered. Rich handled my case professionally he cared about my well being and his team was always there to help. Preparation on my case - he made time to meet with me and answered my concerns and questions, He had no problem making calls that involved my case or writing letters. Reading some of the reviews and recently had a family member get him as an attorney I felt I wanted to write my own review. I feel Rich had my best interest in my case I felt he did right by my case and if I needed an attorney again I would reach out to him. I feel he will do the same service for my family member and I feel like he has been around and respected by enough people that people that know him and do there part- he will go all the way for you, my own opinion and I feel he did this for me and my family. Thank you again Rich!

He does what he gets paid to do work for the prosecution of Davis County jail

Terrible service! I could of done better myself. He says one thing and does another leaving you with a worse situation. The girl in the office is a stuck beast too that doesn't even pass on his messages. He doesn't care to help you he just wants the governments money.

Rich Gallegos is discriminating against a handicap disabled person. His client stated on the phone he was disabled because of his stroke and blood clots in his lungs that he didn't understand what Gallegos was saying. He told his client you can listening can't you! The client just listened but still doesn't understand. Rich's office was stuck up and all these pricey items in his office... He was discriminating, rude leaving no hope for the client. Just cause he's a public defender doesn't mean he cant be a little courteous. we felt like he didn't listen to our side of what happened. I feel that he more or less threatened him he would be in more trouble. This client is scared of me Gallegos. This is not healthy for The clients mental health.

His services are worth every penny

This guy's a joke run. He doesn't care. Won't respond. Accuses people doesn't listen even when presented. Lack n white evidence to support your case he turns it around and lies.

He's okay. Started with some personal judgement, but I can't blame him-- because I did make a mistake. He got 2/3 of my charges dropped. He said he tried to call me but I didn't get a call. I tried to get him valuable information but overslept (I was homeless at the time). Tried my best not to make it a communication issue, but wish he would have put in a little more work. All things considering, he could have dropped some of his public defender fee. He did never call me back after he would, twice. I feel like I tried my best to give him valuable information and he never even wanted to discuss my options. Maybe I don't understand how plea deals work, but he could have explained or let me hear him negotiate.

Great people great Attorney's if you are in need of one this is the only place you will want to go to. Great track record 100% recommend

Horrible attorney tried from the start to screw me did nothing but work for the prosecution disrespectful and arrogant. Get anyone but him. Rich you going to say you don't know me?

This is a public pretender. He works with the courts to get anyone that doesn't know any better to take what they can scare them into even if there no evidence. Does not tell you what he can do and explain your options he just sits and asks what you want him to do to help you and wants you to do his job for him or else he will let you sink. THIS IS NOT A PERSON OUT FOR YOUR INTEREST OR JUSTICE FOR ANYONE DO OT HIRE HIM!!

I have never met a public defender like Rich. It makes you wonder if he really is a public defender or if he even went to law school. Such a horrible guy and horrible office. I’m not sure if he knows how to do his job or if he just refuses to care. He’s such an angry miserable person. Stuff like this should matter because what happens in court depends on people like Rich & its like one wrong word could set him off! It feels like he’s working against you, instead of with you! If you’re thinking about hiring Rich Gallegos, read the reviews first! Such a horrible person. He should really be looked into! Mental eval probably. Also seems like he forgets things quickly. You’re told one thing one week & a totally different thing the next week! State needs to look into stuff like this! Horrible horrible horrible!

If the courts appoint this lawyer to represent you. He will not do anything other then speak in court. I literally had to do his job for him. I sat in jail for a month appearing to court 3 times before pointed the facts out in court that I was falsely incarcerated. He has refused to represent for a total of 4 months. Any good reviews he has can only be people who have paid him or he's paid them off to file them. You will have better luck researching the laws and representing yourself.

My son was just assigned to him as a pd. What a joke for an attorney!! Hope he doesn't lose on a case that should be dismissed but it's not looking good. He seems to work for the other side and not his client. There are lots of fake positive reviews. They are so obvious.

I was impressed with his work on my case. I got the best of outcomes in court.
