I want to take a moment to thank the entire staff at the Daniel J. O'Neill law office in SLO town for their 2+ year work handling my neck injury claim. When I was involved in what I thought was a typical rear end accident in 2019, I didn’t realize my neck complaints would persist and worsen over time. It got to the point where conservative measures were not providing any relief but I had gotten to the point of just accepting that the pain I had was something I would need to get used to. After an initial consultation with his law office, Mr. O’Neill surprising offered to file a claim on my behalf. Not only did he offer to represent me, he also provided a different perspective regarding pain clinic procedures that were not previously considered. After several unsuccessful procedures locally in the Bay Area, he referred me to Dr. Jordon, a Pain Specialist in Santa Monica, that was able to identify the source of injury after specific diagnostic testing. It took approximately a year of procedures and tests, but eventually we were able to find some relief and resume a more normal lifestyle with the family. During this whole time, I never inquired about how much this case might be worth since my main intention was getting pain relief. Throughout the whole process of collecting records, submitting forms and discovery, the entire office staff was patient, respectful and thorough. It was clear that the behind the scenes work of the case was extensive. Mr. O’Neill and the support staff spent countless hours with preparation for our deposition, the IME and progressive negotiations with the insurance provider. In the end, with much diligence and savvy negotiations, I received a settlement beyond any of my expectations. I understand the settlement will not cure my neck issue, but it does provide some peace of mind for covering future care and future needs of my family. With much gratitude, I want to send my kindest wishes to the legal team of Daniel J. O’Neill. Your efforts and results are extraordinary!

After consultation, Mr. O'Neill agreed to take on my car accident case. He gave me instruction on what information he needed me to gather for him; police report, hospital and medical records etc. and I got busy doing just that. I called him back to explain that the hospital could not forward my records for a month to which he replied that it was fine. Just after I received the records and had compiled all the required information, I received an email from Mr. O'Neill's assistant that he was too busy and would no longer be helping me. I was devastated! I emailed and phoned him once, imploring him to please help me. If he was too busy at the time, i was willing to wait, but he still refused. i had only spoken to him a few times initially and the one other time regarding the wait for hospital records, so i wonder if it was not for some other reason than just being 'too busy' as I was willing to wait. I had spent much effort and money to gather all my information and records together ready to send to him. If Mr. O'Neill had indeed become too busy, then I feel it would have been respectful and more appropriate to refuse to represent the new cases rather than refuse my case that he had accepted a month prior. after my initial consult with Mr. O'Neill, i felt so hopeful and thought I had found a good, caring person to help me. Words cannot express the emotional devastation I felt when he 'dumped' me as it was during a very tragic and difficult time in my life. I feel Mr. O'Neill treated me disrespectfully and uncaringly.

My experience with Daniel J. O'Neill was incredible. I could not have asked for a better Attorney. Everyone in his office was so professional. I was always treated with kindness and a welcoming attitude. Mr. O'Neill is really honest and open as well as being supportive and understanding. I felt so comfortable and taken care of. I also could not believe how hard he and everyone in his office worked on my behalf. I am sooo grateful for all that Mr. O'Neill helped me through. Their level of hard work communication and professionalism was remarkable. I would completely and without reservation recommend Mr. O'Neill and his team!!

I could not have asked for a better lawyer in Mr. O’Neill. My case lasted five and a half years and Mr. O’Neill remained steadfast in his pursuit of justice for me. I had been in a car accident, which left me with physical injuries. Mr. O’Neill made sure that I was well cared for and helped me get relief for my pain. My case did go to trial and Mr. O’Neill’s preparedness helped me feel confident during that difficult time. He saw that we were well compensated for past injuries as well as for future costs. His understanding of the system was phenomenal and he was always caring and in control. I felt as if I was being taken care of by a family member. My family and I were not treated as mere clients but as people who needed help through a very rough time in their lives. I would also like to commend Mr. O'Neill's staff. They always addressed me in a very personal way and showed concern about what was going on in my case throughout the time. Thank you everyone for your hard work. I will always be grateful to you.

Mr. O'Neill was hired to help my mother with an auto accident that she was in. Dealing with the insurance became a nightmare for us. Mr. O'Neill was referred by a friend of mine and we are so thankful we found him. He is by far the best attorney I have worked with. Not only is he professional, but his staff is amazing. I just love them all and now consider them great friends. The compassion that he and his staff showed my mother during her ordeal was outstanding. I highly recommend him.

I highly recommend Dan O'Neill for legal help. He is very calm and helps make a stressful situation a lot easier to get through. He is very knowledgeable and well respected in the legal community. Dealing with a car accident and insurance companies is not easy, however, Dan really knows how to get through it all with great success in the end. No one wants to have to need legal help due to accidents, but if you are in this situation and want to have a positive outcome, I would definitely consult with Dan O'Neill for help on your case. He will let you know if he can help you or not and he is very honest, fair and nice to work with. The office staff are also very helpful and extremely nice as well. I could not have gotten through my two cases without his help. He made a huge difference for me and my outcomes were quite successful. Dan really can make a difference and I honestly would recommend anyone to seek his help if needed!

Mr. O'Neill represented me with compassion, empathy, commitment and professionalism. The entire engagement was made comfortable and comprehensible by his thorough and timely communications. His experience and foresight compressed what otherwise could have been a lengthy and complex process into an easily navigated course of action that resulted in a positive outcome. I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. O'Neill and would certainly engage him again should the need arise. On a personal note, in addition to being an outstanding attorney, both Mr. O'Neill and his entire staff exhibited a genuinely caring and considerate attitude that made me feel both comfortable and fully supported throughout the course of our engagement.

Dan did an excellent job and I would without a doubt recommend him to anyone who needed help with a legal issue.

Dan O'Neill is absolutely Amazing!! I've worked with several Attorneys throughout the years pertaining to my work, and have never met a more caring, compassionate and professional Attorney, as Dan O'Neill. I was involved in a car accident that left me in alot of pain with medical bills beyond my means. Mr. O'Neill made me feel so protected and watched over as he advised and supported me throughout the entire process of going to different specialists and dealing with my insurance company. His attention to details and excellent communication skills along with the support of his staff kept me informed at all times. He was incredibly fair and the compensation I received was beyond my expectations! I would highly recommend him and feel honored to have worked with someone of his character and integrity!!!

I had been in a car accident. I was physically and emotionally a bit of a mess. It was an extremely difficult time. Mr. O'Neill's demeanor and expertise was a godsend. He was always available to answer my questions. He put me in touch with the right medical professionals so that I was able to get the care I needed. He dealt with everyone involved in such a professional manner; it is easy to see why he is so well respected in our community. We were both pleased with the outcome. I would recommend him without hesitation.

I praise and thank God for Mr. O'neill. His patience and persistence is what encourgaged me to continue in the 2 1/2 year race. He was willing to go the extra mile to win this case. What seemed like a stressful situation, he made it tolerable. I must say that It is very difficult to find a gentle, honest and caring attorney who you can totally put your confidence in. If I had it to do all over again, without a doubt I would have Mr. O'neill represent me. I was absolutely overwhelmed with the outcome. God worked through Mr. O'neill, and I received much much more than I could have asked or imagined. Ephesians 3:20. I will forever be grateful for Mr. O'neill. I will recommend him to others.

Mr. O'Neill is a wonderful human being and friend. He made my case meaningful and justifiable. The judgement was just frosting in this whole matter. What Mr. O'Neill did was beyond what Superman could do if he was real. All my blessings and love to Mr. O'Neill and his practice. Lots of love to Vicky and Julie!
