Deirdre spoke to me with care and concern on our first conversation.

Deidre got right back to me at a time of great stress and was able to answer my questions and point me in the right direction with her kind words and professional advice. She did not charge me for her help and I would highly recommend her!

Great Attorney!

I reached out to Attorney O'Brien when I lost my current attorney mid way through my child support modification case. Unfortunately, she was not able to take my case, but was super responsive and called me back (same day) to follow up with me and get more information about my needs. She even gave me ...a name of a lawyer who might be able to represent me, and although I really she could take my case, I appreciate her feedback and suggestions as I'm starting from scratch and didn't know who to call. She was personable, friendly and knowledgeable and would certainly be a great resource for someone if she was able to represent you. Disappointed it wasnt doable for me, but so very thankful she took the time to have a conversation with me!

great consultation

I had a specific question and Atty O'Brien was able to answer it quickly and offer me more related information - she didn't charge me for the 20 minutes on the phone, she will be my first call if I need some help!

Former client

I worked with Deirdre for several years. She represented me initially in my divorce. Later she was super helpful on modifications to increase support as Situations changed. Deirdre was always immediately responsive, her staff was responsive as well. all in all I was super satisfied with Deirdre’s re...presentation. She treated both me and my ex-husband with dignity at all times. She is a class act. I would recommend her highly and have recommended her to many of my friends who are very pleased with her services. I found her billing practices impeccable. She sent me a monthly statement and I always knew exactly where I stood. She kept very good records and I felt I got very good value for my money. I found her prices were in the general range of lawyers in the area. I was only ever billed for services that I requested. She explained exactly what was going on at every step of the way and I understood what was going to happen before we got to court. The staff was great. I have no hesitation in recommending Deirdre.

Excellent Service by Attorney Deirdre O’Brien

I was looking for Attorney to prepare my Will and few related Documents. I have been referred to Attorney Deirdre O’Brien by a friend. As a result, I have received a very efficient and highly professional service. Attorney O’Brien clearly acted in my best interest in every aspect of the legal procedu...res. She considered and openly discussed with me every pros and cons of every Document, every potential changes, and possible scenario. All necessary Documents has been prepared in a very short period of time. I received electronic drafts of all Documents well before our final meeting has been scheduled, and I was able to review and to make necessary changes to each Document. Every change I’ve made, has been discussed and incorporated in a final version of each Document. I was completely satisfied with the outcome. In addition, it was a real pleasure to interact with Attorney O’Brien, as well as with her stuff and colleagues. I would highly recommend Deirdre O’Brien as an Attorney to everyone who would like to receive a very efficient professional legal help and enjoy a very pleasant environment.
