Great Attorney

I hired Mr. O'Sullivan to handle a reckless driving ticket for my daughter that could have resulted in 6 points on her license! Mr. O'Sullivan was knowledgeable, quick to respond and reasonable. Although he made no guaranty he was confident that he could get her into a program that would eventually... result in no points! He did! Job well done. I would recommend him without hesitation. Thanks so much Mr. Sullivan for all our help and a great job

Review

Michael O’Sullivan was very helpful getting me out of my DUI. He got it dropped to reckless driving and helped along the whole way to make sure I was never confused on what was going on. He answered all my questions promptly and was very kind throughout the whole process. His service was also one of ...the cheapest I found. I would recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney.

Lawyer review

Michael O’Sullivan represented me with a DUI charge .03 . He got the charge dismissed with a non moving violation. He kept me informed and was prompt to answer my concerns. Great attorney.

Michael was easy to work with. I could always get in touch with him when I had questions. He was knowledgable, upfront, fair & honest. Michael completed what he said he would. Will definitely reach out to Michael with future needs in SC.

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.
