Mary O'Byrne worked with my husband and me to create a will, a (semi-complicated) trust for our grandson, as well as Financial Powers of Attorney, Medical Powers of Attorney and Advanced Directives. Mary was very professional, yet friendly, clear in her explanations and she answered all of our questions (we had a lot). She was super easy to talk to! Service was great. At one point we had a scheduled a phone call to ask some questions about the draft version of the trust. Mary got called out of town and another lawyer (Sage) stepped in. They asked us ahead of time if we were ok with talking to Sage or if we wanted to wait for Mary's availability. It was evident she took the time to review our case before our scheduled phone call. Both Mary and Sage were kind, patient, and the costs seemed reasonable. It feels so good to have this is complete and out of the way, and to feel 100% secure knowing we worked with such a reputable firm. I've already recommended O'Byrne Law Firm to my mom and to a good friend!

A very professional and compassionate firm. One of the most knowledgeable firms I have met who has the capability of developing special needs and estate planning for families. Did a great job in assisting our family in addressing the present and long range needs for our son who has cerebral palsy with multiple disabilities.

Ms O’Byrne and her staff patiently guided us through the guardianship process from consultation to court. They were incredibly responsive to our many questions and concerns. It’s very reassuring to have that support in a sometimes stressful process.

I hired Mary to create a special needs trust within 1 week. she is an expert and accomplished the task beautifully. I also hired Mary to create estate planning documents. she asked pertinent questions and achieved the task quickly and at a reasonable fee.

Ms O'Byrne has been involved in the legal care of my son for over 20 years. She has been instrumental in the creation and maintenance of a special needs trust, providing guidance and support , and helping us to navigate the complex Medicaid requirements. She also oversaw the estate planning for us, a same sex couple, well before legal recognition of our subsequent marriage, a complex project in an uncharted legal environment. These service have been of unquestionable quality and prompt and competent responses.

Following an unexpected death, Mary O'Byrne provided both sound legal advice in regard to my new circumstances as well as my estate planning. The documents she prepared for me were considerate of my concerns and special needs. Ms. O'Byrne also met with my adult children to help explain my current situation and some difficult decisions that were necessary. Her professionalism, legal advice and concern for me, her client, helped through a most difficult time.

The first draft of the will was entirely opposite of my wishes. I spent two hours with Ms. O'Byrne and thought she understood what I wanted, however, the documents were wrong. Second draft, still wrong. I have sent emails with NO response. I have been passed to Sage who is "out of the office". Find a better attorney who is not so expensive and will listen.
