In a nutshell John O’Malley is Personable, Reliable & Fair!

This having been the first time I needed to retain a lawyer it was an absolute pleasure working with John O’Malley! For me going through a divorce was stressful enough and like everyone I was concerned about being nickeled and dimed to death especially having three children but that was never the cas...e with attorney O’Malley. He was open and honest and I could tell from the first moment that he could be trusted. Never once did I feel pressured, his team was professional and utilizing the portal as well as email and text as needed were a true benefit to me throughout the entire process. I have to say there were times that John responded to me on nights, weekends and even on his vacation and to me those are instances and characteristics you can’t put a price on. If you want to be well represented and treated with respect by a team that actually cares about your families best interest before, during and after I have and do recommend John O’Malley and his team at O’Malley Law Offices, LLC in Clarks Summit, PA!!!

Excellent law firm

John and Maria have been our attorneys for a very complex custody issue and they have been nothing but excellent. They offer sage advice and are very active and attentive with all of the details, even going out of their way on weekends to help us. O'Malley Law is worth every penny we give them and I ...would highly recommend them for any family law matters.
