I will never reccommend nor use another lawyer! Ohan is THE BEST!

I was facing first degree felony charges for being guilty by association... Wrong place at the wrong time. Although I'm sure many guilty people say that, but unlike them the police report supported my claim. Ms. Ohan fought for 18 months to finally get my case dropped. She responds as quick as she ca...n when you have worries or concerns, (as quick as she can because you must be real and realize obviously she's a lawyer so she's not always free). She reassured me constantly everything was going to be ok. And like she knew from the beginning... It was all alright! Not to mention she is easy on the eyes lol I probably read 10-15 lawyers reviews before choosing Ms Ohan as my attorney... You know why? Her reviews are absolutely outstanding and they are all TRUE! Thank you Ms Ohan for everything you did for me. You have changed my life, gave me my feeling of freedom back and now I'm ready to take on my future and never look back! I cannot thank you and your Secretary enough for helping me like you did. Absolutely blew my mind how humble you both are. Take care!

Ms. Ohan is smart,promt and very understanding im very satisfied with my DWI resolution

ms. Ohan is very passionate about her work her and i had words about things that I thought where right she took her time broke it down and showed me the pro's and con's of what i was seeking she was Always on time i never sat on those courthouse benches any longer than 20 to 30 minutes waiting to pr...oceed which compared to an experience i had with a former attorney i felt she was more than sufficient i dont plan on having any future encounters with the judicial system but if i did id diffinently resort to Ms. Ohan oh and her secretary is very helful Ms. Beatrice is very knowledgable of all basic proceedure thanks ladies

TERRIBLE ATTORNEY

WORST LAWYER I HAVE EVER USED. A TOTAL WASTE OF YOUR MONEY. SHE HAS A TERRIBLE ATTITUDE AND SO DOES HER ASSSISTANT. SHE TAKES ON MORE CASES THAN SHE IS ABLE TO HANDLE. EACH TIME I WENT TO COURT I HAD TO WAIT AT LEAST THREE HOURS BEFORE SHE MADE HER APPERANCE. SHE ISNT WILLING TO WORK OUT A GOOD DEAL....

Posted by Paula | October 25, 2013 | Domestic Violence

Excellent lawyer!

My adult son and I had a misunderstanding and before I knew it I was being carted off to jail with a charge of domestic violence. Days after I got home from jail I received Ms. Ohan's pre-written letter in the mail, among many other lawyers, offering to help me. After waiting a couple of weeks I fi...nally picked her letter out of all of the others and I called her. Ms. Ohan attended all of my court dates and I never even went to one of them. Then I get a call from her assistant Beatrice saying the case was dismissed! I highly recommend Ms. Ohan for your legal problems. This was the very first time I was ever in jail and the very first time I needed the help of a lawyer! I often called her assistant Beatrice whenever I was having a panic attack regarding my case and Beatrice always answered my questions with courtesy and patience! Ms. Ohan kept her word on every single part of her pre-written letter! Never once did she ever change from the promises given on that letter! I always hated the junk mail lawyers send out when someone is in trouble, but for once getting her pre-written letter after my first time jail stay was truly a Godsend!

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.
