100% satisfied with Michael!

Michael and his team were so helpful! They kept me informed at all times. They took extra time to answer any and all of my questions so I understood every step of the way. I would highly, highly recommend Michael O'Connor. You can tell after one conversation with him that he is experienced and knows ...what he is talking about. He will take the time to make sure you are represented to the fullest extent. His team shows that they care and they will stand behind you 100% of the way. Thank you Michael and team!!! It makes the world of difference going through any legal matter knowing you have people to depend on.

A referral is the best compliment

I was referred to Mr. O'Connor after my mother was involved in a very serious accident. This was the first time anyone in our family was involved in anything that required legal representation. We made the smart decision of contacting him. He talked and walked us through the entire procedure. ...He provided regular updates as the case moved along. He outlined all our options and offered his expertise, but always stressed the ultimate and final decision was ours to make. We ultimately got the best settlement possible, thanks to all his hard work. A referral is truly the best way to acknowledge someone's excellent work, and I'm truly grateful he was recommended to us. I've had the chance to refer him to a relative who was also involved in a serious accident. I know he'll be in the best hands possible.

Outstanding

Michael O'Connor represented me in a personal injury case. He was very thurough and detailed in investigating all of the facts in my case. He kept me informed of everything that was going on and made sure that I was well prepared for what would take place during the trial. He represented me honest...ly and ethically and I believe that I got the best possible representation. I would absolutely recommend him. Michael O'Connor won my case but I would feel the same even if we had lost

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.
