ASSOCIATE – CRIMINAL DEFENSE

ABOUT CALEIGH QUINN

Caleigh Quinn is a criminal defense attorney at Gallian Firm who represents clients facing serious state and federal criminal charges. Her experience includes complex case preparation, motion practice, witness preparation, legal research, trial strategy, and hands-on courtroom work in matters where the consequences for the client are substantial.

Caleigh’s first joined the firm as a law school intern and quickly made herself indispensable. Rather than simply observing, she inserted herself into the work, attending consultations, helping prepare witnesses, digging through evidence, and working alongside the firm’s attorneys on serious criminal matters.

Her courtroom experience began well before she received her law license. Caleigh assisted the defense team throughout a two-week federal criminal trial and, with the client’s permission and under her student bar authorization, sat second chair in the jury trial of a first-degree felony carrying a potential sentence of 25 years to life.

That experience shaped the attorney she is today. Caleigh has already seen firsthand how cases are won and lost through preparation, command of the evidence, witness examination, and the difficult strategic decisions that happen when a client’s future is on the line.

At Gallian Firm, Caleigh works closely with the criminal defense team on serious state and federal matters. She is known for her ability to master complicated evidence, identify issues others may overlook, and approach every assignment with an extraordinary level of preparation and attention to detail.

Caleigh earned her Juris Doctor from the University of Missouri–Kansas City School of Law and her Bachelor of Science in Criminology and Sociology, cum laude, from Kansas State University.

What began as a law school internship has developed into a career at Gallian Firm built on trust, experience, and a willingness to take ownership of difficult cases. Caleigh brings substantial courtroom exposure to her practice and a clear understanding that criminal defense is ultimately about protecting real people when the stakes are at their highest.
