Grimes Galvano is adding another familiar name to its roster.
The Bradenton-based firm announced that William S. Galvano has joined as an associate attorney, working alongside his father, firm partner and former Senate President Bill Galvano.
William, who was sworn into the Florida Bar in September, will focus on general civil litigation. He recently earned his law degree from Ave Maria School of Law, graduating at the top of his class. He completed his undergraduate studies at Florida State University.
“The firm is excited to welcome William to the firm, and, as his father, I am proud to have him join our team of esteemed legal professionals,” Bill Galvano said in a statement. “In addition to now having two generations of the Galvano family at the firm, William represents the next generation of attorneys joining the legal professional world, and I know that he will serve our clients and our community well.”
For his part, the younger Galvano said he is eager to begin his career in the family firm.
“I am honored to begin my legal career at Grimes Galvano and to be able to work with and learn from their well-respected and talented group of attorneys,” he said. “This firm has a long history of excellence and community service, and I am excited to grow as an attorney here and, hopefully, one day be able to contribute to that legacy, alongside my father.”
Grimes Galvano traces its roots back to 1922, when E. Glenn Grimes and Alvan B. Rowe teamed up to launch a law firm in Palmetto. Its storied history includes employing the first woman attorney in the region and the first in Manatee County.
