Able To Represent You During Life’s Critical Moments
My firm, Michael A. O'Hara PLLC, Attorney at Law, was created with the understanding that people do not like having to hire multiple attorneys as they face legal issues that can occur during their lifetime – such as divorce, the need for estate planning and probate guidance, facing a criminal charge, or seeking compensation after an accident. I have secured positive results in all those practice areas for numerous clients. My goal is to represent clients again and again when they need my services.
In my career as an attorney, I have seen that those who achieve the optimal results for their clients are usually the best prepared. When we begin working on your legal matter, I research and prepare as if it will end up in court. I will not accept a settlement or a plea bargain on your behalf that is not in your best interest. This approach is why my firm enjoys the respect and trust of its clients.
