I was convicted three years ago of actions I took to save the lives of thirty-six of my men in Afghanistan. They were illegal, but necessary in 2014. Ultimately, the Govt threatened to go after my wife if I did not plead guilty, so I did - in exchange for a letter that ensured my wife was safe. The plea was entered in Tampa Federal Court. After a short time in prison and on probation, I sought an early release. I approached about twelve different law firms in the area seeking assistance. Not one responded. Finally, I came across the Law Office of Mark O'Brien. Not only were they responsive, they stayed ON IT - working with the USG and Probation. They were communicative, respectful, and thorough. I cannot tell you how happy I was to see that approved motion for early release come into my email. I hope I never have to use the O'Brien Law Firm again, but God Forbid if I ever need a defense attorney, this will be my first phone call.

Mark O'Brien is an amazing lawyer. He put in a lot of time and effort on my case to get the best result possible. He communicates frequently, answers emails right away, and is very compassionate. His assistant Jeanette was always available, day or night, to help in any way possible. They really tried to make the best of a difficult time and went above and beyond expectations. I'm truly grateful that they were on my side.

Best criminal attorney out there! Treat you like family !

Mark O'Brien and his team are what you want on your side if you're ever in need of a great criminal defense attorney. My partner found himself in the hot seat facing very serious federal charges not too long ago. His family and I pulled our resources together and luckily found the O'Brien Hatfield firm to help in our moment of panic and desperation. Actually, lucky doesn't even begin to describe how fortunate we were to have Mark on board for this journey of the unknown. As the all too familiar saying goes, "They never taught us that in school," this was definitely something we knew nothing about. Mark's legal assistant, Jeanette, quickly calmed and relieved our concerns and we knew this was the group we needed defending our guy. Mark met with my partner at the jail to assess his case, confirm his safety, and got him moved to a safer area quickly where he was finally able to call us and let us know he was okay. Mark, Jeanette, and his paralegal, Chelsea, have been in contact via phone and email throughout this whole process, explaining things along the way, and being that constant bit of strength and encouragement not just for us but for my partner. I will always be grateful for that! Mark's demeanor in the courtroom was exemplary. I'd heard of and read about his reputation and courtroom performance, but when it's your loved one's life on the line and you're sitting there with a heavy heart anticipating the outcome, I was blown away at his expertise and the compassionate performance Mark gave in defense of my partner. One last thing: Mark doesn't get paid just to see a client through trial or sentencing; he's still there beyond court to assist in the needs of the client to get reestablished once they've been released. Thank you, Mark, Jeanette, and Chelsea, for your tireless efforts, genuine care and consistent contact with us all through this process. We wouldn't have made it without you!

Excellent service! They went above and beyond, really appreciate it

Mark and his team are outstanding in every way that matters. Knowledgeable, experienced, industrious, and resourceful.

Posting from a friend to: Olivia Goodman, Esq. O'Brien Hatfield, P.A. Dear Ms. Goodman, I personally owe you a great debt of thankfulness, for let me ask you to try to imagine where I'd now be without you? That being said, mere language alone is inadequate to voice my total gratefulness and appreciation. Nevertheless, I'll try my best. Right away, your initial brief in my appeal to the First DCA, simply put, is just masterful. Thinking back to my first impressions of you as a skillful legal mind, I must say that initially I may have slightly underestimated just how brilliant your capabilities actually are. In my case, you have taken a very muddled wrongful prosecution and case history involving one of the most boring and mundane subjects, that of white collar financial crime, and yet conveyed subtle nuances of complicated case law, precedent, and my personal story, into understandable prose unfolding through a fascinating narrative smartly told. That takes some special talent. You write so effortlessly and in an elegant style that all can comprehend. Each legal argument is presented with finesse and flair, which allows the reader to easily grasp otherwise abstruse facts, while at the same time, being riveted as to what bold, undeniable point may come flying off the page next. Most importantly, I believe profoundly that you advocated for this client with unparalleled, heartfelt compassion and earnest concern. Obviously a great listener and speaker, your comfort with communication compliments those genuine altruistic qualities. It's always such a pleasure to engage in discourse on a legal call with you. I would be remiss if I did not here also mention that you have the most ablest and pleasant legal assistant in Kiersten Richter that I have ever known, or known of. Ms. Richter is keenly receptive with an intensely sensitive and intuitive temperament. As a team, you are at the apex of your profession, and my true angels in the court. I rest much easier knowing that you are there for me. Thank you so much. Best, Ron Clark Ball

400000 no investigation hired Vicky never seen her never showed for court.worst mistake ever. be living with that every day for 15 years. Every other lawyer quoted 10 to 15 thousand and were honest.I fell for the lies and hype. They seen me coming like a woman walking into a mechanic shop and knew I'd do anything for my son.
