Experience
Mike Gallery, President, has a long and successful history in the technology field. In 1985, after a six year stint as a public school teacher, he assumed the role of Office Manager for a family law firm in the Chicago loop. He automated the firm’s time and billing, converted word processing from typewriters to a computerized system, and set up the company’s Novell Netware computer network.
Next he worked as the Manager of Information Systems for Nisen & Elliott, a mid-sized general business law firm in the loop. He upgraded their single Netware 2.2 file server to a dual Netware 3.12 system, converted all the users’ computers to Windows, and provided on-going support for a host of legal software applications. Additionally, he formed and chaired the Chicago Law Office Systems Group, a group of M.I.S. personnel from various law firms in the city, which met monthly to exchange ideas and information about their respective firms’ technologies.
At Haskell & Perrin, a 100 person law firm specializing in insurance work, he was responsible for the maintenance of the computer network. He set up CD-ROM based legal research systems, designed and implemented a Groupwise based Internet e-mail system, and provided a major corporate client with secure X.400 e-mail. He also provided on-going training and support in various software packages including WordPerfect and custom-designed database software.
Since 1977 he has provided a host of clients with on-going support for their computer systems. His clientele includes law firms, retail businesses, a university, and private individuals. He has set up multi-state networks for law firms, implemented secure remote access for staff, set up Blackberry systems, and worked with other consultants to install Juris, Timeslips, docket software, and other programs.
He brings a very wide range of experience to your projects.
