The Absolute Best Representation For Your Money

I recently hired Stephen O'Malley for an outstanding criminal case in Lynn, MA. I had a pending arraignment for a Larceny and Credit Fraud charge in which I was being falsely accused. I had several free consultations with lawyers in this area, and I decided on Attorney O'Malley based on his confidenc...e and also the price he quoted me. It seemed much more fair than some other lawyers in the Lynn District. I can say with all confidence that Attorney O'Malley went to work for me right away, before receiving his retainer fee. I am in New Jersey now, so I could not have filed the necessary paperwork myself. He was quickly able to gather all the facts and records in this case that was over two years old. He was then able to speak to the right people, and get my case brought back to a Clerk Magistrate;s Hearing for probable cause. With Attorney O'Malley at my side, it was quickly decided that there was not evidence to warrant a criminal charge and my case was dismissed without having to be arraigned on felony charges, thus my record stayed clean. From the first free consultation, in which he spent about half an hour of his time, he was confident and sincere about how he would go about handling this case. Even when circumstances with the accuser changed, he went the extra mile at all times, and made sure I was aware of what was happening every step of the way. He made himself available whenever possible, and would promptly reply to my emails and text messages if he was unable to speak on the phone right away. Considering the amount of work he put in, my final cost was relatively low when compared with other lawyers in the Lynn District. He always treated me with respect and honesty from the moment I first called to inquire about his services, to his genuine smile and handshake after the determination was made that no criminal complaint would be issued. I was always well-prepared for the next step, and he took an hour prior to the hearing to sit with me, get to know me personally, and make sure we were prepared for multiple contingencies. I say with all the confidence in the world that Stephen O'Malley is a man of his word, a well-prepared and well-educated Criminal Defense attorney, and will work hard to get you the result you are looking for. His prices are more than fair for the amount of work he puts in, as the time and effort on his part played an invaluable role in me keeping my criminal history completely free of anything. It can be very frustrating being falsely accused of felonies, but Stephen O'Malley made it less stressful, and took me through the process every step of the way. I would recommend him to anyone with a criminal case in the Lynn District, and would hire him again in a heartbeat!!

"I recently observed Attorney O'Malley defend a client at a jury trial for a criminal matter in Peabody. I was impressed. It was obvious he was thoroughly prepared - it seemed he knew the facts of the matter better than the testifying officer. He was quick on his feet, involved his client in all the important decisions, and won a NOT GUILTY. Well done!"
