Mr.O'Brien is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I got two tickets on I-75 two weekends in a row with two court dates two days apart. The first ticket I was found guilty with points in Manatee County court.Then I called Mr.O'Brien who went to court for me on very short notice (two days) and was able to get me a withhold on points with traffic school (I had taken traffic school within the year)! Very professional and understanding! Please do yourself a favor and hire him!!I didin't have to take time off work and the entire process was seamless!I wish I would have had him for my first ticket!

Unfortunately, I have had to retain Aaron's services a number of times over the last 8 years. Each time he has been brutally honest with me about what to expect, the best case vs worst case, and always gave me several options on how we could proceed. The last time I had to retain his services it was a very tough situation and the outlook was quite grim. Aaron stood by me the entire time and in the end he prevailed and I walked away with the best possible outcome. Not only do I trust Aaron's judgement 110%, but I know that his ultimate goal is to take care of his client. There are plenty of attorneys who will take your money and then focus on their other "bigger" cases, leaving you at the mercy of the justice system. Aaron is NOT one of those attorneys, he takes a personal interest in your case and fights to ensure you receive the most fair (and favorable) outcome. I cannot recommend Aaron highly enough.

Got arrested while in Florida on vacation. Mr O'Brien got me off the charges without me having to come back to Florida from New York not to mention was not expensive. Thank you Mr, O'Brien it was a pleasure.

Mr. O'Brien is an exceptional attorney. I cannot express how thankful I am to have had him defending my case. I would recommend him for any legal needs.

Mr. O'Brien represented me in a driving while license suspended case. Mr. O'Brien began work right away on my case and stressed the importance of participating in my own defense by gathering information from out of state that would be helpful in my defense. The result was a dismissal. I couldn't be more pleased.

Mr. O'Brien represented my 15 year old son who got into some trouble at school.
He was very patient with him but also gave him words of advice from a lawyers point of view as well as a parent who didnt want to see a minor go down the wrong road. Mr. Obrien battled with the State who wanted my son to face major felony charges and he had never been in trouble before. He got these charges reduced from 3 charges to 1 misd. charge that got him probation and community service.
My sons case was many months ago and he has not gotten to any trouble since. His probation was for 6 months but he was taken off in just a month and a half and I trully believe if it wasnt for Mr. O'Brien that my son would have gone to a detention center for his first mistake in life.
I would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer willing to go that extra mile, he shared his legal knowledge, he attended all court dates in person and on time and made sure we were seen right away. He also had very reasonable fees for a parent in need.
Mr. O'Brien has also represented other family memebers and friends of mine and given the same level of professionalism and come out on top on each & every case. His staff is also as wonderful as he is.
Thank you
A very satisfied parent of a minor child

Mr. O'Brien was co-counsel on my case. He consistently upheld all of the aspects that you would expect from a top notch attorney. He is honest, dependable, trustworthy, and highly knowledgable of the law. He was very responsive to all of my needs throughout my case, and kept me informed of all new information along the way. His professionalism and compassion for his work shines through on all levels.
I was facing a capital charge that warranted life in prison. Mr. O'Brien's unrelenting perseverance and dedication extracted the truth and brought justice to the matter at hand, resulting in a verdict of not guilty.
It is with my highest regard and the utmost respect that I recommend Mr. O'Brien as a superb example of what a defense attorney should be. I am honored to have had him defending my case, and will be forever grateful for the service that he provided.
Best Regards,
J.M.

Mr. O'Brien represented me on a felony charge of capital sexual battery. Due to the nature of the charge, most attorneys I contacted were unwilling to keep an open mind regarding the specifics of my case. Many defense attorneys even refused to hear the details of my case. Once I contacted Mr. O'Brien, immediately I realized he was able to be tough in dealing with the prosecution as well as professional despite the nature of the charge. Mr. O'Brien was an outstanding litigator at trial and successfully brought my case to a resolution. With the charges brought against me, I was facing life in prison. I am a free man today able to type this recommendation, because of the representation Mr. O'Brien provided me. I obviously highly recommend this attorney in any and all criminal law related matters that you may be facing.
