Extensive Experience Protecting Victims of Nursing Home Abuse

The firm’s attorneys — Daniel Gallivan and Thomas Gallivan — have vigorously represented accident victims for more than four decades. We have a strong background working with clients affected by emotionally-charging situations. Specially, we have fought to protect clients’ loved ones who were raped or abused sexually in other ways by staff at nursing homes.

We have also represented clients with allegations of physical abuse, leading to serious injuries, such as:

Scars
Fractures
Pressure sores
Broken bones
Emotional Distress
Significant weight loss or gain
Paraplegia

Our goal is to obtain as much compensation as possible to cover the victim’s and family’s pain and suffering, as well as any hospital bills associated with the abuse or future medical needs.

" Last year I was injured in an accident, and for the first time, needed the advice of an attorney regarding how to proceed. I was referred to Thomas Gallivan through a family member who is a lawyer in Massachusetts. I am beyond pleased with how Thomas handled my case. He was knowledgeable, professional, and although the case was not as straightforward as some, he used every resource to ensure a positive outcome. Thomas communicated with me regularly and I felt completely informed and confident in his ability. He expertly negotiated a fair settlement that I was very happy with. The entire experience was extremely positive, during a stressful time for me. Thank you Thomas. "

" Attorney Thomas Gallivan is a wonderful attorney!! I particularly liked his professionalism, consistency, always kept us updated on the case, and available upon request. He worked extremely hard and was persistent on getting the best settlement in a timely matter. I truly appreciated his prompt responsiveness to emails and phone calls. The office staff was very pleasant and made sure to get messages to him asap. Glad we chose this law firm, would highly recommend and in the event that we ever need an attorney again, Gallivan & Gallivan would be my primary choice. "

" I was a passenger on a motorcycle and ended up falling off the back of the bike due to the driver acting like an idiot. I fell off at a high rate of speed and was very banged up. Fractured wrist and road rash down my back and elbows. I am lucky I didnt die. Not knowing what to do I contacted Thomas and he could not have been anymore helpful!! He went out of his way to meet with me. He actually came to my house for the initial consultation. I know nothing about law or what my options even were. He took me through everything step by step.
