Christina M. Galarza

After graduating law school, Christina began her legal career at a personal injury law firm in Bergen County where she quickly developed a passion for personal injury law. Since then, she has dedicated her career solely to helping those who have suffered injuries and losses due to the actions of others. Christina concentrates her practice on cases involving motor vehicles accidents, commercial truck accidents, premise liability actions, slip and falls, and wrongful death actions.

As a bilingual attorney, Christina is fluent in Spanish and able to provide legal services to the Hispanic and Latino community. She is passionate about helping people and committed to providing her clients with the highest level of service and attention, working tirelessly to ensure that their rights are protected and that they receive the compensation they deserve.

Due to her zealous advocacy for her clients in the courtroom, Christina has been named a New Jersey Super Lawyer Rising Star for three consecutive years and has been a member of the National Trial Lawyers Top 40 under 40 for two consecutive years. The National Trial Lawyers Top 40 under 40 is a professional organization composed of the top trial lawyers from each state or region who are under the age of 40. Membership into the National Trial Lawyers Top 40 under 40 is by invitation only and is extended exclusively to those trial lawyers practicing civil plaintiff and/or criminal defense.
