Jay O'Brien is Fantastic

I worked in the same office building as Jay for 3 years and had gotten to know him very well. I also had the chance to talk with many of his clients that left his office when I was out on my Cigarette breaks. In the 3 years that I was in his building, not one client ever said anything bad when I ask...ed how they liked him. They all said they would recommend him in a minute. He is wonderful, extremely intelligent, makes you feel comfort and spells everything out in terms that us laymen can understand. A CLASS ACT. One day I found myself needing his services because my husband wanted a divorce. I stopped in to make an appointment and 10 minutes later I received all call from my soon to be ex stating that he was referred to the best lawyer in Will County and he was calling him today. I told him I already retained mine and asked who his was. He said our good friend who is also an attorney recommend Jay O'Brien. I laughed and said "Iv'e got good news and bad news for you buddy". The good news is that you are correct in stating that Jay is the best of the best but the bad news is that I already retained him. What a small world we live in. Jay's staff is also outstanding. If you are reading this post and are looking for an attorney that is at the top of his game and truly cares about his clients, Jay O'Brien is your man.
