Outstanding

Mr. O'Hanlon helped us through the most difficult time in our lives. He was very informative and thorough in his explanation of our case. He returned our calls and emails quickly and courteously. He fought hard and won our case! He's knowledgeable and explains things in a way that you can understand.... We would highly recommend him to anyone in need of representation.

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.
