Reliable and hard working

Crystina works long hours, making herself available to clients outside of normal business hours. She is dedicated and assiduously in representing her clients. In addition to her office hours, she is prompt is responding to phone calls and email correspondence. For those of us not fluent in legal lang...uage, she easily translates legalese into layman's terms.

the best

I had a previous lawyer and was going through a nasty custody divorce issue. I met with O'Brien law firm to get a second opinion and the o Brien law firm eased all my concerns. I have hired them and have no doubt they can get the job done. Every attorney there is hard working,honest,knowledgeable and... kind. I wish I hired them from the start. No more sleepless nights worrying about my case.

Amazing Attorney for Military Matters

Over the course of the last year and I half I have been going through a rough time in the Army. I was wrongfully accused of some things, the former unit command treated me like dirt and wouldn't afford me due process, the Army TDS was Counsel was ineffective, at the end of the day I day I thought my ...career was over. I decided to get on-line to find a civilian attorney. The Hampton Roads has numerous attorneys that deal with Navy and Air Force Law due to this area's saturation of such, but not many that deal with Army Law for servicemembers like myself. When Crystina met with me and took my case she jumped in feet first and assured me from the beginning that I would be o.k.. SHE DID NOT LIE! Mrs. O'brien fiercely engaged my command and was able to dissect with expert precision the erroneous documents my unit was forcing on me and placing in my records, she tirelessly researched all aspects of the case, wrote amazing and well versed appeals and rebuttals on my behalf, and really, really, really took the fight to my unit and was able to prove my innocence to a culminating seperation board in the end. I am so thankful to have someone on my side who doesn't back down and exhausts any means and long hours to help. I recommend her to anyone who need a great attorney, especially military servicemembers, she is a veteran and her military experice is invaluable. Crystina is a good hearted and caring person to work with, but when it is time to fight for you she is an absolute bulldog and that is what you need most!

The Lawyer To Choose If You Want Top Notch Results

Crystina has time and time again proven to be a an exceptional attorney with outstanding results. While in the military she represented soldiers onbehalf of the command presenting outstanding case preparation with high success ratios. I would chose her time and again to defend a soldier or civilian... in a criminal law situation. She has also proven to be an expert in administrative law and always provided me with expert information allowing me, as a military commander to make the appropriate legal decision. I can't think of another attorney that I would select to represent a client in need of criminal defense or advice. She served not only as a United States military attorney providing clear, concise case advice and action to commanders in combat units, but continues to defend expertly in a civilian community. This is the attorney you need to represent your case or provide advice.

Glad I walked the other way

I tried to work with her for a very serious matter. Without thorough research into the matter, I was recommended by her to take a plea upon stereotyping, and I decided to hire a better lawyer. The matter is now dissolved and expunged.
