Colucci & Gallaher, P.C., lawyers have distinguished themselves as effective advisors and advocates for privately owned and publicly traded businesses, as well as municipal entities, in the Northeast United States, Upper Midwest and nationwide. The firm applies a single rule when pursuing any client interest: provide the highest-quality legal services on time and at a reasonable cost. C&G currently counsels some of the world's largest — and upstate New York's smallest — businesses. This diverse clientele includes oil companies, one of upstate New York's largest commercial real estate brokers, downtown Buffalo's largest commercial landlord, one of the area's fastest growing development companies, the world’s largest manufacturer of aerial work platforms, the nation’s leader in designing specialty trucks, and the largest hospital and nursing home in Western New York. The firm's varied menu of skilled business legal services benefits clients locally, regionally and nationally in practice areas that include prosecution and defense of personal injury claims, business litigation and counseling, corporate law and contracts, insurance defense representation for construction litigation, municipal liability, toxic torts and environmental issues, product liability claims, health care law, real estate transactions, and personal legal services such as wills and estates, mental hygiene and business formation. Firm attorneys regularly practice in state and federal courts across the country, before private arbitration panels and in mediation proceedings. Their many accomplishments in these capacities are a matter of public record.
