Services Overview

Dedication to Our Clients


We know how a serious injury or death affects the whole family. For over three decades we have caringly and compassionately protected the interests of our clients through the legal system. We provide personal and respectful attention to our clients. Our clients are not cases. Our clients are individuals whose well-being we genuinely care about.

Trial Experience Is Key


Galiher DeRobertis & Waxman attorneys have over 150 years of combined legal experience. With 250+ jury trials under our belts, our attorneys have a deserved reputation for successfully fighting for the underdog. The firm’s track record of multi-million dollar jury trial verdicts is key to our ability to secure high settlements in cases that do not proceed to trial.

More Than One Billion Dollars Recovered

Attorneys who are accomplished jury trial practitioners receive larger settlements. Insurance companies do not want the risk of a jury trial when they are going up against top trial attorneys who have the resources to work tirelessly so that their clients can receive the maximum recovery possible.

Veteran Staff Makes Crucial Contributions

The veteran staff at Galiher DeRobertis & Waxman contribute greatly to our proven track record of success. Unlike smaller firms or solo practitioners, our attorneys are backed by a well-trained and skilled support staff. Paralegals, investigators, secretaries, administrators, information technology experts, and an experienced medical director all work in tandem to assist our clients.

We are proud to be Hawaii’s leading advocate for the underdog. Our firm’s hard work, legal acumen and dedication have enabled us to recover over $1 billion on behalf of our injured clients.
