A Strategic and Responsive Partner for Complex Litigation

Our company faced a significant product liability lawsuit that threatened both our finances and reputation. We engaged Catherine Arpen at Galloway Johnson Tompkins Burr & Smith, and it was the best decision we could have made. From our first meeting in her Jacksonville office, Catherine's meticulous approach was evident. She didn't just see a lawsuit; she understood our broader business objectives and crafted a defense strategy specifically tailored to protect them. Her deep knowledge in both product liability and insurance law, areas where she's recognized, was invaluable in navigating the complexities. Catherine was consistently responsive, demystifying each legal step, and her thorough preparation gave us immense confidence. Ultimately, she secured a highly favorable settlement that aligned perfectly with our goals, avoiding a protracted court battle. For any Florida business needing a sharp, strategic legal mind who truly partners with her clients, I cannot recommend Catherine Arpen highly enough.
