David O’Neil and his team at the Bellevue office were very helpful settling my injury case. I would recommend them to anyone who has sustained an injury that is not of their doing. Thanks.

It is very beneficial to seek legal counsel when you have been a victim in an accident. A person without legal counsel cannot achieve maximum benefits. It’s just the way it is…. Every day people don’t write the rules, but attorneys can help you live by the rules. Hauptman O’Brien attorneys are thorough, helpful, considerate and patient. I can strongly recommend Kyle McGinn. The process he assisted me with was arduous and lengthy. I am very appreciative of the outcome and the focus on my return to wellness.

Professional and caring.
Very detail oriented and fact finding is a priority.
I felt like I found the best, with the HOWL law firm.
Jeremy, Nichole, and Michael…. WOW!!!!!!
They walked me through hell, and have been there throughout the whole process.
I recommend this firm, if you want to know that you are important, and your case matters.
My case is at closing, and I feel comfortable with the case they worked for me….yet, I feel sad, like I am losing some great friends.
Call this firm….they are honest and good people first.

I can’t thank Jeremy, Nicole, and Andrea enough for the way they handled my case. After my car accident, I felt overwhelmed and unsure of what to do, but their team stepped in with confidence, compassion, and clear communication every step of the way.
They explained things in a way that actually made sense, fought hard to make sure I was treated fairly, and never made me feel like just another case number.
