Shaun is an extremely competent attorney. He was previously employed in the DA's office and understands their inner workings, an advantage in navigating cases. He recommended a private investigator who uncovered additional information which resulted in the dismissal of my case.

David was awesome. When I called I had already talked to several lawyers, the thing that made him stand out was his honesty. He said several things that the other lawyers either didn't mention, or want to say so they could charge me more money. He was very professional throughout the entire experience and ended up getting me a very favorable outcome. I would highly recommend him and if I ever need representation again he'll be the first person I call. Great job

Had never needed a lawyer before, the process can be very intimidating. Dave was very professional and didn't sugarcoat anything. Told me not to change my plans for my hiking trip and ended up getting dismissed a month before I was scheduled to leave. A man of his word thank you Dave!

I was relieved by Shaun O’Connell’s professionalism, promptness and competence after having a bad experience working with another attorney. He was very responsive to phone and email and quickly assisted me with my case. This helped put my anxiety at ease. I was pleased with the outcome of my legal trouble.

I was accused of some criminal allegations which attorney David Anderson was hired to represent my case. From our first encounter attorney Anderson was honest and gave me the best legal advice he could for the case I was fighting. He worked hard on my case and kept me updated on any new details that came about pertaining to my criminal case. The crimes I was accused of were very high felonies that if found guilty I’d face years in prison. Attorney Anderson helped fight for me and got me the best deal he could negotiate with the prosecutor after 9 months of hard work. I am very satisfied with the outcome of my plea and here to give my testimony! I would recommend attorney Anderson, as he is an outstanding lawyer.

I retained Shaun for what I believe was a very intricate and difficult case, it was handled in a very professional and timely matter. Shaun was always available and returned my calls very promptly. Shaun is very focused on delivering results and that is just what he did for me. The team at Anderson & O'Connell was willing to work with me on all aspects of my case from start to finish and has still been available to me after the case has been closed. I would HIGHLY recommend this firm for any criminal case you are dealing with.

I hired David while facing a 2nd OWI and refusal charge and things couldn't have gone better. In short, both the OWI and the refusal charges were dismissed and I was only required to pay for a minor traffic violation. He was extremely friendly and understanding from the very start and told me he would fight as much as he could because that's what he's paid to do. Whenever there was new relevant information on the case he would contact me to inform me and whenever I had questions he would always reply promptly. Hiring him was the best decision I could have possibly made and I recommend him to defend anyone facing an OWI/DUI.

Well usually I don't leave reviews but this attorney deserves it hands down. David Anderson did an amazing job the outcome from start to finish & the entire process was more than I anticipated ,finally the final outcome was shockingly way better than I anticipated as well, also he is a straightforward straight-shooting easy to communicate with as would your friend as well being extremely professional, and if God forbid ever comes a time I need a lawyer again I am not looking anywhere else just calling him. Hands down happy with everything I would recommend calling him to my own family... I guess I can't say enough other than please don't waste your time and just give him a call.

Best choice of my life hiring Dave Anderson. Very experienced he was able to get a felony charge dropped and dismissed. He will fight for you and make sure you get the best outcome. Truly a kind and caring guy and had always believed in me and assured me it was going to be okay. He was always honest about what was going on and what he thought was best. I am glad I hired him and god forbid I get in trouble again, but at least if i do ill know who to call.

I was hit with an OWI as well as a possession of a firearm while intoxicated. Needless to say, I was scared beyond words - especially since I could have been facing jail time even though I had a valid conceal carry permit and had misunderstood the law when it came to gun possession while back in your car. I went online and saw the reviews Anderson and O'Connell and gave them a call. It was the best decision I made in a long time. Mr. Anderson and Sara Anderson were beyond professional, efficient, and friendly. They kept me updated on my legal case and documents. Mr. Anderson was able to help me avoid the ignition interlock for the OWI, and I avoided jail due to his efforts on the conceal carry issue. My friend and coworker also received an OWI recently and he went with another lawyer who charged him double the fees I paid. Not only that, but my friend is livid with the lack of professionalism and follow thru from his over-charging lawyer and said he wished he had gone with Anderson and O'Connell. I highly recommended Anderson and O'Connell. Hopefully I won't ever be needing their services again, but if you ever do, I suggest giving them a call.

Mr. David Anderson recently represented me in my DUI(+) case. Throughout the whole process he kept me in the loop on what was going on, and fought hard for me. I couldn't be more satisfied with the work he did. He did an amazing job and provided great quality service. I would definitely refer this office to anyone looking for a lawyer.

David is tremendous at what he does. I was dealing with an a couple minor speeding tickets in areas where they assess to many points. The process working with David could not have been easier, I literally sent him the citations, had a phone discussion with David, and he reported back with me via email and phone call on the progress. The results of his efforts cut my citation points and financial penalties in half! I could not recommend David any more for any legal matters.

I hired Mr. David Anderson to represent me in my case. His years of experience as a attorney helped me feel comfortable and confident that he was the attorney for my situation. Through out the whole process he kept me in the loop on what was going on, if I didn't understand something he break it down so that it was clear. I appreciate his hard work, time and effort on my case. I'm very satisfied with his work he did an amazing job and provided great quality service. I would personally use his services again and I recommend him to anyone in need of an attorney.

David Anderson is top notch! He works hard on your behalf and is compassionate and really LISTENS to what you are saying. Went in with 4 felony charges and came out with 3 misdemeanors that will be expunged after the 2 year probation period so it will be as though it never happened. IF YOU WANT JUSTICE AND WANT PROPER DEFENSE CHOOSE DAVID ANDERSON SERIOUSLY. He also is the only fairly priced attorney around and won't try to get over on you just because and will FIGHT FOR YOU UNTIL THE END. I and my family deeply thank you Mr. Anderson!-

David Anderson was an amazing help to me in my Refusal/OWI charge! He immediately responded to my emails and continued to answer in a very timely manner with all of my many questions! He was able to help get my initial paperwork mistake dismissed and was extremely helpful in all aspects of the case. I believe he truly cares about you and your case, and works non stop to get a result! I really appreciated the answers to my million questions answered right away and he helped me feel at ease that my case was going in the best direction. David is very patient and a real person, which made him very easy to work with! His fees are by far the best around and he gives you as much as the high price Attorneys! His heart and soul are in to helping you and I am so glad that I reached out to him! I would recommend him to anyone seeking help in any situation! Thank you David Anderson!
