As the Gulf Coast is in the midst of hurricane season, our attorneys are committed to delivering results for our clients in matters of insurance defense and coverage, even for past named storms. Associate Sam Fuller recently scored a victory in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana with the dismissal of a Plaintiff's hurricanes Laura and Delta claims. On the eve of trial, his motion practice successfully convinced the judge to dismiss the case, securing another positive outcome for both Galloway and our clients. #HurricaneClaims #Insurance #Litigation #LouisianaLawyer #GallowayJohnsonTompkinsBurrSmith #LegalExcellence
