She took time to understand not just the documents of my case but the background and situations that led up to my case. she was always in control of the case even when I thought it should go one way or another she had an early idea about her course of action and carefully crafted the case around what... needed to be said and what needed to be heard. she handled the witnesses like a pro and helped me stay at ease - I trusted her and she did not fail.

Crystina O'Brien will always be the first lawyer I call. She has helped me tremendously with my custody case going above and beyond what I have ever expected. Her dedication to me and my case was outstanding. I am forever grateful for all that she has done for me and my family. Thank you, Crystin...a!!!

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.

Outstanding attorney. Expert in legal field; I had no questions, she covered and resolved all aspects of my case. Her past experience as public defender and a JAG was invaluable. Phenomenal communicator, gets point across eloquently and succinctly; easy to understand. Courageous, unwilling and una...ble to be intimidated.

I hired Ms.O’brien the day after being arrested for a misdemeanor (possession of marijuana). Previously I’ve experienced lawyers taking your $$ and treating your case as if your another number. I must say I had my doubts in the beginning ... BUT THE WAY MS.O’BRIEN HANDLED MY CASE UPON STEPPING IN TH...E COURT ROOM!!!! AMAZING!!! FLAWLESS VICTORY!! She was very knowledgeable of the laws surrounding police investigations and able to poke holes in the “true” statements given by the police. As I stood next to her spouting objections and challenging their testimonies I felt secure in my decision to hire. She was very confident and able to approach and present my case in so many ways that if they weren’t dropping the charges on lack of probable cause (as they did) they would have been forced to drop due to technicalities on their part. I am very happy with the results and would hire again.
