O'Brien & Sullivan Law Group got this award in 2021
Working with Attorney O'Brien was a great experience. She kept in contact, did a great job of explaining everything and acted very well on my behalf. My traffic court case was dismissed, and I am very grateful for her professionalism and knowledge. I would recommend her to anyone who needs representation. She did a great job.
Even though we asked for the impossible to be done (we have a family member in the Air Force who refused legal representation), our goal was reached to help a person who didn't want our help. Alexa made sure our message was relayed before leaving the office (marking it urgent - this was on her last day with the Firm - she will be missed I am sure). Janette was quick to respond when needed and got the information to us that we needed so that Ms. O'Brien could proceed. Ms. O'Brien - WOW - we can't say enough about her compassion for her clients, responsiveness, determination, legal knowledge, reliability and ability to explain things to us in this complex situation. She went above and beyond for what we hired her to accomplish. She really cares and provided great legal assistance and advice. Her military experience was very beneficial in our situation. THANK YOU!!!
Several years ago, I thought my life was over. I was facing false allegations of the worst kind against my daughter. I felt lost. My child was taken away. My mental health completely collapsed. And I was just ready to end it. Mrs. O’Brien went far and above with my case. She dedicated so much time and cared so much. In the end, everything worked out and was thrown out. I got my child back. Rebuilt my life and we’re doing amazing. None of this would’ve been possible without her. I highly recommend her! I’ll never forget what she did for me and my family.
After my consult with O'Brian and Sullivan I realized they where not able to help me with my unique case but the professionalism was on point the way they explained it

I knew as soon as I met Mrs. O'Brien that I had found the best possible lawyer for my case. She was determined and had a drive about her that you don't see in most. Honestly she reminds me a lot like my mother. She kept me on point with what I needed to be doing through my custody case with my ex. She continuously reminded me to stay focused and do what was best for my son. She continued to make sure I was comfortable with what was going on through the entire process and that I was cooperating w
The O'brien Law firm helped me through very hard times and helped me get through them and still are they will stay with you be make you feel like you are going to get through it.

Ms O'Brien is a bulldog of a lawyer. She is also highly intelligent and cognizant of every little detail. She pursued my case until I got the results I wanted. She makes herself very available to all her clients and treats them like people instead of clients.

Hired Law Firm
I found the o,brien law firm to be very thorough in her work by seeking the least costly method of representation while seeking the optimum result for me during my litigation. Her staff was very responsive to my calls and requests and were very friendly to work with. I will definitely request her services in the future if needed and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal guidance and representation.
The right counsel makes all the difference, and Mrs. O'Brien was that for me. From the initial consultation I felt relieved that I'd found the right attorney to help guide me through my visitation/support appeal. She listened, helped me to see all sides of the issue, and was honest and very informative. She followed-up and followed-through and was aggressive and pushed for everything I wanted. My hearing couldn't have gone anymore favorably and I owe it all to Mrs. O'Brien. Thank you!
I used the services of Crystina O'Brien. She was very kind, professional and patient. She is very knowledgeable and capable. She did a great job as my attorney. She offered excellent advice when I needed it and ultimately things worked out very well for me. I do recommend her as your attorney.

Reviews
These client and peer reviews are from the Martindale-Avvo Legal Network.
Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.
The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.
Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page
Martindale Peer Reviews
Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.
The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.
What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*
• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.
• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.
• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.
Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.
Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
