About Dennis
Biography
I'm proud to be a criminal defense lawyer. When someone is charged with a crime, they have the entire government attempting to deprive them of their life, liberty, and property. The only one that can fight back is the defense attorney.
I will always be on your side whether it's during an investigation, a bond hearing, a motion hearing, or trial. I will always give you an objective opinion of where we stand and what our options are. It is always your decision to go to trial or to take a plea. Whatever your decision is, I will respect your wishes and fight like hell to get you the best outcome.

Dennis O'Brien handled our son’s case. He responded to our first call immediately and met with our son that day. He has a clear understanding of the applicable laws and gave clear and concise advice. And he was instrumental in obtaining a great settlement offer from the court.
