great
“I highly recommend Jennifer as a lawyer. My husband and I had her draft our wills. She also represented us with several civil situations, and my husband on one criminal case, which she got dismissed. Through the years I have sent many clients. Everyone I have ever referred to her has raved to me abo...
"Attorney O’Brien is at the top of the profession! She’s an extraordinarily talented and successful attorney. Her intelligence, diligence, and tenacity make her the lawyer any client would be blessed to have in their corner. I rely on her counsel often to cooperatively defend clients who find themselves in the most challenging of circumstances. Whether the legal matter is an appeal, or a complex trial with formidable challenges -- without a doubt -- Attorney O’Brien is the lawyer I want on my side; and, clients with everything at stake would be extremely fortunate to have her on their side. She’s a no-nonsense, highly experienced, imminently experienced attorney!"
"Attorney O'Brien is a brilliant appellate advocate and trial attorney. I have worked with her on many matters and she truly is a creative, diligent and passionate attorney. I would recommend Attorney O'Brien to any attorney seeking professional guidance or creative solutions to complex legal matters."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jen is that type of lawyer who gets it! She understands the issues of divorce and all of her cases and clients. She knows what needs to be done. She is realistic about what goals are acceptable and what are not. She is up front with the client, especially those i have sent to her, they all have been very happy with the service and results she has accomplished. Jen has that way of telling you what is real and not real -- my clients need to hear this and they appreciate the advice. I have known Jen for over 15 years as a lawyer and friend, have appreciated the mutual support we have grown to expect."
"Attorney O'Brien is a rare lawyer who provides exceptional service at a reasonable rate. Her office is run with efficiency and personal care. All clients (which I have gladly referred over the past decade) have expressed joy with her service."
"I have worked with Jennifer for many years and I can say unequivocally that she is an outstanding criminal defense and appellate lawyer. She is very knowledgeable about the law, and her tremendous writing ability and keen eye for issue spotting allow her to advocate for her client's in a way that only an attorney with 20 years of experience can. I cannot recommend Jennifer highly enough; not only is she a tremendous attorney, but her thorough preparation of every case allows her clients to breathe easier knowing they are in very capable hands."
"Jennifer is an exceptionally skilled criminal defense lawyer in my opinion. I have worked with her on major felony cases, including murder appeals. Most importantly, she is down to earth, cares deeply about her clients’ cases, and fights for her clients tirelessly. I highly recommend her!"
