Took the Money,Abandoned the client

Paid her to file a habeus corpus petition. With the statute close to expiring she neither returned calls, letters and visits, nor did the work. Got another lawyer and filed on time.

Knowledgeable; Lack of Communication

Meredith did a great job with my case up until the end. She got my case dropped, however, the court did not receive documentation that was required to fully close the case. I was told it would be taken care of but was not which resulted in a warrant being placed for my arrest. I could not get ahold o...f Meredith although I called, texted, and emailed for two days. A week later, I still have not heard back. Thankfully, I was able to handle the final steps with the court on my own but had to navigate the unknown circumstances on my own although I paid an attorney to see the case through.

Ms O Brian Esq.

Ms O brian is an excellent attorney at law. She succefully brought a quik and satisfactory conclusion to my 3 misdemeanor cases. Her prices are very reasonable. And you can expect quik resolution in my experience.

High Tier OVI

Was very happy with Meredith handling of my case. Did not lose my license, or pay reinstatement fees. OVI was dropped. I believe Meredith truly has a passion for the law, and a thorough understanding of OVI laws.

OVI/DUI

Meredith was absolutely amazing. She had always made herself available to answer any questions as well as gone above and beyond throughout the whole case. Extremely detail oriented. I had consulted three other lawyers prior to choosing her and she was the only one who had suggested that the sentence ...was not set in stone.

"What is it that you’re looking for in hiring a lawyer? You want a great listener, that is genuinely interested in hearing your story, and why you came to them. You want a smart thinker, a person uses their brain to solve problems, rather than their mouth to simply sound tough. You want a fighter with courage & fearlessness, as opposed to someone who simply takes your money and then takes the coward’s route to selling out the client. You want a person with honor, ethics & professionalism. Honestly, the above is what you get in Meredith O’Brien as your attorney. A great listener, sharp thinker, courageous courtroom fighter & honorable. Proud to have worked cases with her. Impressed by her too."

"Meredith and I first met at an Advanced DUI Seminar that lasted several days. That alone should tell you that she is willing to go above and beyond and do whatever it takes to achieve the best possible results for her clients. Everyone knows that it is always better to choose a lawyer who cares as much about winning as her clients do . . . From my personal experience with Meredith, and from what others have told me, she is definitely one of those lawyers. Your search is over. Call Meredith O’Brien now."
