Notable cases

O. J. Simpson

Galanter first represented O.J. Simpson in a road rage trial in October 2001. He was also Simpson's attorney for the federal drug raid case on Simpson's home in 2001, a misdemeanor boating violation in 2002, a domestic violence call to his residence in 2003, and his writing of a fictional account of the murders of his former wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, called If I Did It.

Galanter also represented Simpson in Nevada vs Simpson (07-C-237890-C) in which his client was charged with twelve felony counts including conspiracy, robbery, and kidnapping relating to an armed robbery which took place in a guest room (#1203) at the Palace Station Hotel in Las Vegas on September 13, 2007. Simpson and co-defendant Charles "C.J." Stewart were convicted on October 3, 2008, on all counts at the conclusion of a month-long jury trial held in Department 5 of the 8th District Court, Clark County, Nevada, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Upon his conviction bail was revoked and the 61-year-old Simpson was remanded by District Judge Jackie Glass to the Clark County Detention Center pending sentencing, which took place on December 5, 2008, when Mr. Simpson was given terms of incarceration in the Nevada State Prison system totaling a maximum thirty-three years.

Brooke Mueller

Galanter has represented Brooke Mueller for many years as her lawyer and spokesperson. Galanter most recently defended Mueller in her December 3, 2011 arrest for assault, possession of cocaine and distribution of cocaine in Aspen, Colorado. Galanter was able to obtain dismissals of the assault and distribution charges and had Mueller placed on deferred prosecution which when successfully completed will have all charges against Mueller dismissed. Galanter instituted a lawsuit against the Canyon's Drug Rehab Facility for negligent supervision and violating Brooke Mueller's privacy rights when one of their employees attempted to sell medical records to an electronic media tabloid site.

Charlie Sheen

Since 2009, Galanter represented Charlie Sheen starting with his arrest in Aspen, Colorado where Sheen was accused of aggravated assault on his wife, Brooke Mueller. Galanter negotiated a plea that ensured Sheen would receive no jail time. That plea deal caused Sheen to praise Galanter by calling him a "Rock Star" when leaving the Pitkin County courthouse on the day his plea was entered. Galanter continued to represent Sheen after the Pitkin County case and speaking on his behalf on numerous talk shows. Galanter again represented Sheen in the Plaza Hotel incident in New York City successfully ensuring that Capri Anderson's claims were dismissed by the police and having no charges brought against him.
