I was referred to Joe from a friend that used him, and I am so glad we hired Joe. He helped us navigate a year long battle with my narcissistic ex and the trying opposing counsel my ex hired. Joe is NOT a lawyer that is a money grabber and tries to extend the case as long as possible. He did everything he could to try to move our case along in the system, because he actually cares about his clients (I know, a shocker in the lawyer world!) He was honest and patient with us, and responded in a timely matter for calls and emails. I felt that he billed us very fairly as well (I went through 3 lawyers in my first court case, and some of them billed for the most ridiculous things). Near the last 3/4 of our case, it was financially rough to pay in full for a few of the bigger court date months. Joe was extremely understanding and let us do a payment plan which helped a lot and we were very grateful for. Not everyone is willing to do this, so it truly shows Joe is compassionate and sympathetic to what his clients are dealing with financially and emotionally during an already stressful time. Mornings before court status, Joe would call me to make sure he had all the facts correct and we would go over a quick synopsis of what he was going to bring up to the judge. He argued well for my case, and stood up for the best interest of my child. There were a few things I was stubborn on when I shouldn't have been, and Joe would calmly explain to me what he thought was the best route to take and why. He never spoke down to me in these instances and treated me as an equal. I did listen to his advice and I am really glad I did. I started out with what he said was, "one of the worst agreements I've ever seen" and we got it to a much, much better place. Some of this was due to my ex making extremely poor decisions and the GAL realizing my ex was not going to change, but Joe helped in crafting a well written agreement. When the GAL gave us her recommendation synopsis, it was a hastily written, poorly worded document. She left out so much of what we had talked about and what she said she recommended in front of the judge. I basically crafted the entire final agreement, and put in almost everything Joe had written in his original draft. In the end, we did not have to go to trial and my ex lost a lot of his decision making abilities and visitation. Lastly, I appreciated Joe's legal assistants. They were always very kind and helpful. Whenever I needed something, they usually responded very quickly which I really appreciated. TLDR: -Joe will argue well for you and not waste your money -Joe will try to move your case along as best he can in the very slow court system -Joe actually cares for his clients

Joe is an outstanding attorney and was successful in securing my first win in my challenging family law case. Before working with Joe, I had three previous attorneys who were unable to overcome the litigious nature of the other party that would throw everything at the wall to see what would stick. Joe is incredibly knowledgeable, understands the statute and case law inside and out, and can properly assess the situation. His billing is always fair and transparent, which has been a change of pace from a prior attorney that would overcharge. Most importantly, Joe genuinely cares about you as a person, not just as another case file. If you're in the unfortunate situation of dealing with a family law matter and need an attorney who will truly advocate for you, I highly recommend choosing Joe as your first attorney. He’s the attorney you want representing you.

Throughout the entire divorce process Joe was incredibly attentive and responsive, always making sure that I understood my options and the next step I need to take. He took time to listen to my concerns and priorities, ensuring that my interests were always at the forefront of every negotiation and decision. I always felt I had a strong advocate by my side.

Atty Mitch Peskin and team help me a lot to navigate my case. I could never ask for more! Thanks!

Joe is a 10/10 lawyer. Very professional and gets straight to the point. No games played here. Excellent service would recommend to anyone. Always prompt responses. Nothing but good things. Made sure to do everything in his power to give my son the best possible future!

I can truly say that Attorney PieRina Infelise works with integrity, accuracy, and most of all compassion. I was 30 days away from adopting a child I had for two and a half years to only be falsely accused of child abused. Attorney PieRina was very detailed about finding the truth and presenting it to the judge with all the facts. Thank God for her due diligence I won my case! Thank you Attorney PieRina Infelise for all the hard work you've done. Truly grateful, Cindy Walker

I am very grateful to Joe for his unwavering support throughout my case!

I can't thank him enough and would highly recommend him to anyone!

I cannot express enough gratitude and appreciation for Joe O’Brien, who recently represented me in an exceptionally challenging divorce case. From the moment I engaged his services, Joe demonstrated not only his vast legal expertise but also a deep understanding and empathy for my situation. What truly sets Joe apart is his emotional intelligence and ability to uplift spirits during such a tumultuous time. His constant reassurance and positive attitude were a beacon of hope. He always took the time to listen to my concerns, offer sound advice, and provide the emotional support when I needed it the most. His empathy and assurance made a profound difference in managing the stress and anxiety associated with the divorce process. The divorce process was hard enough to deal with alone but coupled with recent family tragedy, the only way I made it through this was with Joe’s help. Joe was consistently communicative and transparent. He promptly returned calls and emails, making sure I was always informed about the status of my case. His availability and willingness to address any questions or concerns offered immense peace of mind. Thanks to Joe's skillful representation, the outcome of my case was far better than I had anticipated. His dedication, coupled with his strategic approach, truly turned what seemed like an overwhelming situation into a manageable and ultimately successful resolution. In conclusion, Joe O’Brien is not just an outstanding lawyer but also a remarkable human being who genuinely cares for his clients. If you are facing a difficult divorce or any divorce, I wholeheartedly recommend Joe. His expertise, coupled with his uplifting support, will make a significant difference in your journey. Thank you, Joe, for being there every step of the way and for turning a challenging chapter in my life into a hopeful new beginning. Respectfully, Ian M.

Joe did an incredible job representing me in my divorce! After two years of an exhausting divorce with my ex husband and the fear and uncertainty of walking away with nothing, we won everything! Thanks again, Joe. Highly recommend hiring him to represent you. He is thorough and communicative. Excellent work!

Had a wonderful experience dealing with Joe O’Brien and his law office with my divorce proceedings. He was professional and answered every question I had in a timely manner. I would recommend him to anyone going thru this difficult transition. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Divorce is always difficult but Joe made it quick and painless. He listened to how I wanted the experience to go and worked to make that happen. The process was quicker than I anticipated due to his diligence. He was honest and took the time to explain my options and their impact going forward. He always kept my expectations front of mind and I truly appreciate that. I would recommend him to anyone who is facing the potential of going through this difficult journey.
