Bankruptcy Relief Begins With Your Attorney

Through a Legal Aid referral, I was directed to the Law Firm of O'Connor and First to navigate me through the technicalities of filing for bankruptcy. As a pro bono case, I expected only the minimum of attention needed. I was pleasantly surprised to discover founding partner, Michael O'Connor ha...ndling my case himself. Mr. O'Connor's demeanor was personable, professional, patient and kind. All appointments were timely, my myriad questions answered and phone calls promptly returned. Mr. O'Connor's breadth of knowledge, attentiveness to detail and his compassionate guidance were invaluable. If you're considering bankruptcy, I highly recommend Michael O'Connor. Your bankruptcy relief doesn't begin in court, it begins with your lawyer.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
