Positive experience with Mr. O'Brian

I chose Mr O''Brian to represent me on my social security disability case. At our first meeting, I had a positive feeling about him and his staff, you know sometimes you can feel if something is right. He was very honest and forthright with me and did not make any unrealistic promises. My case was p...articularly difficult since it was not a physical condition. I found Matt to be very compassionate and genuinely concerned about my feelings and helped me to feel comfortable during the hearing.His assistant was also great and professional. I would highly recommend Matt if you are looking for a honest, friendly yet experienced attorney.

WORKERS COMPENSATION

It is my pleasure to recommend my attorney Matt O'Brien, as well as his knowledgeable staff. Matt and his staff are professional,cordial and very competent! Not only did they settle my case,but they settled it quickly! Matt and Brittany were candid and precise about my case. They didnt "string" me al...ong or say one thing and it turn out something else. They kept me informed and when I had questioned they responed in a timely and professional manner.Matt is a "straight shooter" that I can RESPECT and TRUST! I made him my attorney and I recommend you make him yours!

Very Helpful

I hired Matt thinking I wouldn't even really need a workman's comp attorney. After being put the wringer by my employer, I was very glad to have him on my side. He was very knowledgeable, courteous, and maintained excellent communication. He fought for me to get a fair settlement for my injury. I wou...ld recommend him to anyone that has a workman's comp injury.

  • 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.
