At Galbavy Law, the attorney-client relationship is the most important aspect of how we help our clients.

David handles cases where people are injured. These are accidents that occur at work, on the road, or while on someone’s property. His cases generally involve orthopedic injuries, injuries that require surgery, or injuries that result in permanent limitations or disfigurement.

Let us work on your case so that you can focus on your recovery.
WHAT CLIENTS NEED TO KNOW
Contingency Fee is Win/Win
We work on a contingency fee arrangement, which means we don’t charge an attorney’s fee unless we get a financial recovery for you, whether by settlement or court order. We will take your case only if we think we increase your recovery and get you a better result than you would get without us.
Millions Recovered
David is humbled to have recovered over $20 Million dollars for his clients. Of course, prior results do not guarantee similar outcomes in future cases because each case is unique and must be evaluated separately.
We Care About Our Clients
Our first and biggest priority is our clients, plain and simple. We are a small firm that prides itself on big service.
Communication is Key
Strong communication is key in any relationship, but especially in the attorney-client relationship. David and his team are quick to return calls and provide case updates.

Most Common Cases
Our talented team is capable of handling a wide variety of injury cases. Here are our most common case types:
01.
Workers' Compensation
Many injuries that occur at work are covered by workers’ compensation, but not all of them. If you were hurt at work, let us fight to get you all the medical treatment and compensation you deserve. David is a certified workers’ compensation specialist who is ready to help you.
02.
Car Accidents
If you are injured by the negligence of another driver and get any kind of medical treatment, we can help you identify all of the insurance policies covering your accident to maximize your recovery. North Carolina is one of a few contributory negligence states, which means if you are 1% at fault then you recover nothing. Let us help you navigate your claim.
03.
Truck Accidents
Trucking accidents often result in more significant injuries than normal automobile accidents, and there are more rules and laws to navigate in trucking accidents. Also, the policy limits in these cases are higher, so there is more as stake for you to win or lose. Let us help you get what you deserve.
