Hi! I'm Elliot W. Gale, I am a managing partner at Gale, Angelo, Johnson & Patrick, P.C. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Florida in 2004 and love all things "Gators" related. Later, I earned my Juris Doctorate from Santa Clara University in 2008 which started my career in law. Prior to opening my own firm, I was a Senior Associate at a consumer bankruptcy law firm for 9+ years and oversaw more than one thousand Chapter 7, chapter 13 filings and argued before both the 9th Circuit Bankruptcy Appellate Panel and the 9th Circuit Court of appeals. In my spare time, I love to go to car shows and spend time with my wife and children.
