Michael J. O'Brien

Michael Joseph O'Brien has been the BEST attorney I have encountered in my life. I found him to be extremely personable, kind, and considerate with a level of empathy that I have not encountered before in my life in an attorney! He paid attention to details in updating my will, living will, and dif...ferent trust formations!! Still awaiting his work on my foundation formation, but I am pleased with his work thus far.

This summer our family engaged Michael's firm to assist us with our estate planning efforts. We came to him with what we thought were novel issues; blended family, multiple properties and investments, and an adult child w/special needs. From the very first telephone call, Katie and Renee put us at... ease as we began the process of getting our arms around the task at hand. The staff are all, in a word, professional. After reading several articles and how to books on estate planning, we were thoroughly intimidated. Michael's staff knows what information is needed and are sensitive and very preceptive at asking the questions that need to be asked to create solid estate documents that reflect your wishes. Before we sat down with Michael, we had the framework pretty well set. That's when the education and value of this process really pays off. As we discussed our issues, Michael asked as many questions as we did. This allowed us to consider a range of options and select what best fit our needs and expressed our values. I encourage everyone, but especially those with family members with special needs, to not wait and start the process. Michael and his staff make it very easy and the peace of mind it gives you is immeasurable!

We have been working with Attorney O'Brien and his associates for several years. The service has always been excellent. A few days ago we needed to provide a copy of my trust to our banker. I phoned Attorney O'Brien's office and they emailed PDFs of my trust to me within an hour or so of my phone ...request. Attorney O'Brien and his staff provide great service from kind and competent professionals!
