Kerry Vincent O'Brien

I hired Kerry O'Brien in 2011 to represent me in a legal case against Olan Mills Portrait Studio's. I was Fired while on Medical Leave and felt like I was doomed. I had worked for the company for 17 yrs. and only found out they had quote"Let Me Go" by My Insurance Company, Cigna. By The Grace Of God ...I was sent, by another attorney, ( A Personal Injury Attorney Familiar With His Firm ) to set an appt. with Kerry O'Brien and it saved my life! He contacted many Doctors and The Company and my Insurance Company to confirm my situation. My District Manager actually lied and said my Med Leave Papers never made it to HR. After investigating, Mr. O'Brien came up with the PROOF that the papers had indeed made it to HR at Olan Mills on the date they denied, by investigating the faxes between My Dr. and Olan Mills, and my Insurance Comapny. He is of very High Integrity and he treated me as if I were his only client. I would never have been able to recoup what I had lost if not for his perseverance and his honesty. Employment Lawyers are VERY difficult to find and I was Blessed to have been led to him! My Husband and I still talk about his Integrity to this day, not much of that around any more sorry to say, BUT, this Lawyer, Kerry O'Brien, is the epitome of the word! I could never Thank Him Enough!

You have now identified "the Best Attorney in TX and the United States!" I was in a bind, and needed representation from an Attorney quickly to support my Texas Workforce Commissions hearing. The call was last minute. I needed someone who was an expert in Employment laws that could jump in last s...econd and overturn the previous ruling. Here arrives my hero, Kerry O'Brien. He is an expert Attorney and as a previous Hearing Officer for the Texas Workforce Commission he is an expert in Talent hiring agencies business practices in "avoiding unemployment claims at all costs." I'm so impressed with his big picture prospective and his guidance in seeking the truth. It was so refreshing after being used and misrepresented to TWC by RandstadUSA in Alpharetta, GA. He made our case to seek and uncover the truth. Justice has been served and I'm so pleased that he protected my rights and helped me present the facts as the organization is global and their business practices and ethical behavior leave much to desire, professionally. Thank you Kerry! You are the very best!!!

I owe so much to Kerry, it’s hard to know where to begin. Like so many of his clients, I was in an awful position with my employer. Desperate, I called his office at 7 AM and had no idea my life was about to change when he called me back an hour later. From that first call, I knew he was the perfect ...person to help me resolve a complicated and unusual employment issue that other attorneys reported was too complex for them. He understood the complexities of my situation immediately and handled them with aplomb. He is one of the smartest people you will ever meet. His emotional intelligence is off-the-charts, making him a rare combination of intellect and wit. His seamless ability to calm my nerves, give me “real talk” when I needed it, and offer a shoulder to cry on made him the perfect advocate. I know I would not have survived a minute of this process with another attorney. When my employer hired Big, Formidable Law Firm to represent them, I became anxious because of their reputation. It quickly became clear that this firm would be no match for Kerry. Kerry not only anticipated my employer’s every move, but also outmaneuvered them every step of the way. At points throughout, I thought he was clairvoyant given how precisely he predicted their actions and, at times, even words. I still remain in awe of his expertise and professionalism. I have a handful of colleagues and friends with nearly identical cases to mine, some with experiences far worse. Kerry not only supported me but later them as well. We all walked away with good settlements and his word that if they continue to create any problems that he is a phone call away and would be happy to have another discussion. From our time working together, I have grown to respect him as one of the most brilliant, hardworking, and compassionate advocates I have ever known. He changed my life in more ways than I will ever be able to express and I am eternally grateful to him. I trust Kerry with my life and I give him my highest recommendation.

I had a rather terrible year from the start in 2015, but with the help of Kerry's expertise 2015 ended on a positive note with the successful resolution of my FLSA case. Legal matters are one of the few areas I know nothing about and apprehension for the matter was high even though I had the supporti...ng docs and upper hand in the case. Kerry's expertise shows up immediately and also with a confidence that is to say the least, comforting. Watching him work in correspondence was at times uplifting as he provides precise amounts of pressure and attitude at the necessary junctions. Every day that passed I felt more and more confident as he demonstrates that he knows his stuff. From the very beginning I had put forth my goals for the case and Kerry was listening. I at many times wanted to know the reasoning behind things and one of the best parts of Kerry's skill set is that he translates all that lawyer-speak into clear easy to understand terms. Like a great coach should, you cant just ask your players to do something without telling them why they must do it. Understanding the choice is every bit as important as making it, and Kerry is that great legal coach. From day one Kerry demonstrated excellence in not only his expertise, but the ability to listen well, and coach me through the whys and why nots. His confidence and good attitude also helped guide us to a successful resolution and settlement. On top of all that, he is a pretty funny guy too. :) Kerry has earned my eternal gracias, and was instrumental in getting a resolution and settlement for my case. I would HIGHLY recommend Kerry O'Brien for your legal counsel, while you sit back and let him do his legal magic with confidence.

I hired Kerry to defend me against an appeal filed by my previous employer after receiving unemployment benefits. I discovered his law firm via the internet. I called his office and left a voice mail. My call was returned very quickly by Kerry himself, not a legal aid or a secretary. He took the time... to listen to my situation and answer any questions I had. After I hired him to represent me, he continued to personally respond to all my calls and emails very quickly. Kerry is the first attorney I have ever had to hire, but I have heard many stories from other people who have hired attorneys. Everything I have ever heard about hiring an attorney has ALWAYS been negative. Things like it's impossible to get a hold of your attorney once you pay him, they are very impersonal and don't seem to care, and the most common issue being that people don't trust their attorneys. My experience with Kerry has been nothing but a pleasure. He knows what he is doing and he is very comfortable to work with. There were many times where he replied to my emails on the weekend or in the evening. Kerry's rates are very reasonable as well. Some other attorneys I had looked at advertised a flat rate fee. After looking a little deeper I found that their "flat rate" fee only applied if your appeal is completed in one hearing. If it goes past that, then you are charged $100/hr. Kerry offers a flat rate fee as well. The difference is that if your appeal goes beyond a single hearing, like mine already has, you will not be hit with any kind of hidden fees. Kerry's flat rate fee is a true flat rate. I can honestly say that I trust Kerry. I would not hesitate to tell any body that they can trust him as well.
