I would like to send a huge THANK YOU to David O'Neal and everyone at Hauptman O'brien. They were so wonderful to work with. They went above and beyond with helping me through my accident and navigating medical. I highly recommend hiring David for your personal injury needs. You cannot go wrong.

As a college educated working professional, I never wanted or thought I or my family would need the services of a personal injury attorney. When someone in our immediate family was involved in an accident, my wife and I thought we could navigate the insurance process on our own, (after all we weren’t looking to profit from it). We quickly realized the process has become complicated and can turn into a full time job, costing our family in ways we never even dreamed. While I pray we never find ourselves in a situation to need their services again. David will be my first call. Everyone from top to bottom was patient and understanding. They walked us through the process and advised us along the way, filling in the gaps that hospitals, insurance companies and representatives failed to provide. Thanks to David and his wonderful team our family was able to focus on the emotional and physical healing while they found resolution and we were able to move on.

A little over 2 yrs ago I walked through the doors @ Hauptman O’Brian Wolf & Lathrop, a little nervous and a little scared. I was in a car accident on the interstate, my car was totaled and I’m thankful to be here. With their help and reassurance that everything will be fine. And it is. Jeremiah Elliott and his fantastic staff kept me well informed through out the process. It took patients on my part and time to heal too. They were always there to answer my question and so kind. I would recommend their legal service’s for any type of situation you might be in. It will only take a little time to tell your story or situation and listen to what they say. They are there to help you through the legal process and protect you. I will say I’m grateful for their compassion and knowledge of the legal process. I couldn’t do it without them. Thanks to them my case was successful.

Fortunately I haven’t required their legal services, but I have made use of their “Safe Ride Home” program. I feel safer knowing that this service is available for everyone, not just clients, during the holidays.

First time getting into a motor vehicle accident and the team was really helpful during this process. The piece that made me feel better to work with the Hauptman Bellevue office was that they were always asking how I was doing. The office really ensured my health and recovery was the priority. They made me comfortable throughout the whole process, and would recommend anyone in a motor vehicle accident to reach out to this office. Thank you all!

David O’Neill and his team were wonderful. I was in a car accident with my young son that left me with no vehicle and a broken arm. I was getting overwhelmed with phone calls from insurance and hospitals while trying to heal and care for my two young sons. David and his team took care of every communication and kept me in the loop about how things were progressing. Definitely recommend as he and his team are very empathetic and professional!

With 10 years left until retirement I had an accident at work requiring back surgery. Due to the severity of the injury I am no longer physically able to work. Hauptman, O’Brien, Wolf and Lathrop was able to secure a settlement to help bridge that gap. Without them, I would have nothing.
