“Plaintiff’s counsel impressed this Court at trial.”

“Given the contentious nature of this litigation, the Court notes the outstanding quality of Plaintiff’s counsel.

Plaintiff’s counsel acted professionally throughout this litigation despite the behavior of opposing counsel. Further, Plaintiff’s counsel impressed this Court at trial.”

“Amy was always available and provided excellent advice.”

“During our first meeting she clearly explained what the process would be and the amount of time required to reach a resolution. Because I was still employed by the company, I often needed immediate advice as issues developed. Amy was always available and provided excellent advice. She is extremely knowledgeable in the areas of age and gender discrimination. She is professional and compassionate. I can’t imagine going through the past two years without her on my side.”

“Matt understands people, diversity and has a commitment to practicing law for all people.”

“Matt, by far, is the best attorney I have ever encountered. What could have easily been a frustrating, stressful, and uncomfortable situation was, instead a clear and empowering experience. Each step of the way Matt’s personality was consistent and honest. There was never a time I felt like I wasn’t informed. I was encouraged to make my own choices and when I was unclear and needed his opinion he always gave me all things to consider. While I never want to experience another suit again, if it were to happen I would hire Matt. I have already referred him to several people with the recommendation that he is exceptional. Matt understands people, diversity and has a commitment to practicing law for all people.”

“Matt devotes himself to helping you make things right.”

“Matt O’Laughlin will treat you and your concerns with upmost respect. I contacted other employment attorneys who recommended Matt. He possesses a combination of outstanding analytical skills and uncommon common sense. He is reasonable and genuinely cares if your rights have been violated and he devotes himself to helping you make things right. My case was resolved in my favor. While I hope nothing like this ever happens to me again, if it did, I would definitely hire Matt. I have recommended him to a friend who was also facing discrimination at his job. You are in good hands with Matt O’Laughlin.”

Client

“They fought for me 100% and got me the justice which I deserved.”

“What can I say …. I called Amy and she welcomed me in right away! She set aside everything that she was doing and listened to me as if I was priority. She took my case with her husband Matt and assured me that they would justify any wrong doings that came against me. And they did! They fought for me 100% and got me the justice which I deserved. Point-blank, they will listen to you when nobody else will. So again, thank you for fighting for me and helping me move on with my life by placing the injustices I experienced behind me. Without you and Matt I would have just been another statistic.”

“Matt is a very knowledgeable and professional attorney-at-law.”

“Mr. O’Laughlin was very devoted in my retaliation case against my former employer. He is a very knowledgeable and professional attorney-at-law. He was extremely confident with details of my case and made my wife and I very comfortable and confident. We highly recommend Mr. O’Laughlin for counsel in any action where wrongful treatment from an employer is present. We are very pleased with our case outcome. Again, thank you Mr. O’Laughlin.”

“Amy followed through in a timely manner and achieved what I’d asked for.”

“Amy was recommended to me by an attorney who usually practices employment law from the employer’s perspective (the opposite side of the table from Amy!), so I gave the recommendation a great deal of credence. When I met with Amy, she was extremely knowledgeable about the legal issues I needed advice about and was able to propose an appropriate course of action. She followed through in a timely manner and achieved what I’d asked for.”

Client

“I highly recommend Matt.”

“I interviewed multiple options for my employment case. Matt was engaged from the very beginning and responsive to every question throughout the process. Together, we worked through the details and options of my case and Matt provided — at every turn — perspective that was insightful, relevant and very strategic. In total, the counsel provided by Matt helped lead to an outcome that was highly favorable to me. Matt was aggressive and professional in the treatment of the facts toward my employer. (My case specifically involved an employer of 25 years that tried to dismiss a long-standing employment agreement.) I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for attentive counsel and confidence in a favorable outcome.”

“I couldn’t have asked for a better team.”

What a terrific firm to work with! If you need counsel on employment-related matters, Matt & Amy should be your go to. They are dedicated, responsive & highly knowledgeable. They even turned something I expected to be a true hassle into a somewhat pleasurable experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better team. Highly recommend!

“Matt knew my case in detail and conveyed it so well.”

Matt Is The Man! When I first hired Matt’s wife Amy as my attorney in discrimination case from my employer. I didn’t know I was getting two top-notch attorneys working on my case. I did not meet Matt until we were preparing for trail. However, Matt had to be working on my case in the background. Boy did it show when we got to trial. Matt was on fire with the jury, knew my case in detail, and conveyed it so well. And could pull the facts and truths out of the witnesses. So, if you have never needed an attorney, not sure who to hire. Well my choice is MATT, and boy did it pay off for me. He could do the same for you. THANK YOU MATT AND AMY. YOU TWO OWN THE COURTROOM.

“Amy goes many extra miles for her clients.”

Working with Amy Maloney was amazing! Her record speaks for itself. My case got crazy right out of the gate! Amy handled it like it was business as usual, she made me feel comfortable through every step of the process. Amy was in constant contact with me through the entire duration of my case, communication was awesome! Amy was able to get my case closed in under a year, I am more than impressed with Amy Maloney and her level of professionalism, Skill and Education. I recommend retaining Amy P. Maloney for your case. She is awesome!

Amy invested considerable time in our matter and made sure I understood everything from a layperson’s point of view. Her detailed and compassionate approach led to a successful outcome for my case. Amy has an impressive knowledge of the law, and she treats all parties involved with respect, even opposing counsel. Amy goes many extra miles for her clients, and I would highly recommend her.

“Matt gives a voice and hope to victims.”

Absolutely the BEST man for the job! Matt and his team took an unfortunate and very serious situation and turned it around. He was empathetic and kind. He listened and explained every step of the process and gave a voice to me as a victim of a constitutional violation. He worked very hard to act in my best interest and rectify a situation that hurt me very deeply. I have and will continue to HIGHLY recommend Matt to anyone who has been the victim of an unfair workplace or school situation. He gives a voice and hope to victims. Thank you, Matt.

“Amy was always available to answer my questions.”

Amy was absolutely great to have work with me throughout the entire process. She was always available to answer my questions; keeping me up to date on where everything was at; and being honest and clear with me about expectations.

It can be a long process (little over two years in my case) and there will be stressful periods throughout. Amy always was able to help me through those and take a lot off my mind. And I really appreciated that as someone that suffers from anxiety.

If you want someone that feels more like a friend or equally invested partner during a difficult time in your life, then I cannot recommend Amy enough. All things considered, this was probably about as pleasant of an experience as I could have hoped to have and I have to contribute that largely to Amy.

“I gave Amy a call and I am ecstatic that I did.”

Bad Ass Attorney: WOW I never thought I would need an attorney. Then one day an employer discriminated against me and I had to start looking for an attorney. My cousin had used Amy in her case and WON!!! So I gave her a call and I am ecstatic that I did. When she was questioning the witnesses or talking with the jury she was on point. She rocked that courtroom for me. She was so prepared and knew my case and conveyed my story very well. Well enough to get me a six-figure verdict. So if you have never needed an attorney and not sure where to turn. Well let me tell you AMY IS THE ATTORNEY FOR YOU. And if you are as fortunate as I was you will get her husband Matt to help with your case what a team. BRAVO AMY AND MATT.

Amy cares and wants the best for you! When I first met Amy I was scared and nervous about my situation. She made me feel confident about what we could do to get justice for my case. If you’re looking for someone who knows the law, but also cares about you as a human, hire Amy. She is amazing!!
