Best attorney and law office anyone could ever ask for! As survivors of the Vegas mass shooting, our nonprofit Route91Strong team was dedicated in helping survivors impacted the horrific night of Oct 1, 2017. Survivors were traumatized even more as they began losing their jobs, homes and some were placed on suicide watch. Route91Strong provided financial assistance for hardships, resources for recovery, and awareness to the nation about the trauma these survivors faced. Scott Galbreath of Murphy Austin Adams Schoenfeld LLP, went above and beyond in every way. Scott was an outstanding attorney who guided our nonprofit with integrity and brilliance. We couldn't have done any of the incredible things we were able to accomplish for these precious survivors without Scott's knowledge, dedication and integrity. We are forever grateful for his pure commitment and ability to guide our nonprofit while we kept bills paid, food on tables, diapers on babies and families in their homes! Thank you Scott for helping us save lives.

Scott recently spoke at a lunch of the Fresno Chapter of the National Institute of Pension Administrators on "ERISA and the Supremes Greatest Hits-a discussion of recent Supreme Court cases dealing with employee benefits". He did a great job with the presentation and it was very up to date, even with cases that were decided within the past couple of weeks. I thoroughly enjoyed it and he held my attention the entire time, which is a bit shocking considering I’m not the biggest fan of court cases/rulings. I know it’s important to keep up on, and I was glad he was able to make it enjoyable. His DJ commentary was a great way to segue into new topics, love it! A big thanks to Scott for all the helpful information and the entertaining presentation.
