Richard O'Dea recently handled a personal injury case for me. I was very impressed after just meeting him one time. He was very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail to me. He kept me informed and gave me excellent advice as the case progressed. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is looking for an attorney. He was a gift!

I contacted Rich after my husband and I were in a car accident last fall. The other driver ran a red light and t-boned the car we were driving. With multiple insurance companies involved, I needed help sorting out bills and was in no shape physically or emotionally to deal with that. Also, the extent of my injuries wasn't revealed until 5 months after the accident. Rich has been great, as is his investigator. Though my case isn't completely settled, he has been honest, accessible, and responds quickly to my questions and concerns. With months of PT and the potential for ongoing medical care ahead of me, his work on my behalf has enabled me to pay for my care without worry. I appreciate having that peace of mind so I can focus on healing.

I felt comfortable with Rich O'Dea the minute I met him and knew that I could trust him with my personal injury case. Rich is extremely knowledgeable, organized, and professional. He explains matters thoroughly, and is responsive to any question or concern. Rich is a very compassionate person as well. I feel like a met him as a professional award winning lawyer and soon began to see him as a friend. Should I have a need of an attorney again, I wouldn't choose anyone but Rich!!

I would recommend Richard O'Dea to any individual dealing with an insurance company after an auto accident. Initially I did not want to have an attorney assist me after the accident, but my view on that changed after filing a medical clam. I kept getting calls from the insurance company inquiring about my health status. Having an advocate work on your behalf is very helpful. Meeting times were arranged around my schedule and he did a good job explaining the process. Richard also worked for some time to obtain a favorable outcome. He listened to my concerns and answered any questions that I had.

Working with Rich was a great experience. I was a teenager when I first met Rich and the idea of a personal injury case was a strange and scary idea. However, I felt that I had a right to be compensated for my injuries. Rich worked with me to explain the process and calm my nerves about the whole situation. I can tell that Rich really does care about his clients and he understands the struggles that personal injuries bring. He would always take time out his day to meet with me, explain where we were in the case, and what I can do to help myself. I would highly recommend Rich to anyone who is dealing with a personal injury and would like compensation.

Richard O'Dea helped me with a personal injury claim. Even though the accident had happened a couple of years ago, he was able to gather all the necessary info to get a settlement that was fair, just, and done in a timely fashion. He was also able to do this without much input from myself, but always made sure to keep me in the loop. Choosing him to represent me was the best decision I made and I would highly recommend him!

After a very serious car accident, being on very heavy pain meds. and laid up in the hospital, and for sure,out of sorts, Mr. O'Dea took complete control. He was very professional in handling all my necessary paperwork, my financial needs for the present, & near future, and with excellent and speedy results. Being told by many not to expect any results for at least 2 to 3 years--- Mr. O'Dea got excellent results in less than a year and a half. Communication a 10, and I highly recommend him.
