Testimonials
Julie was so helpful, and I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my case...she is really caring and made me feel like she was really out there fighting for me can't thank her enough for handling my case and would definitely recommend her to anyone out there in need!! Jovany Martinez, Google, February 2023
I found her on Tik Tok and after having talked to a couple of lawyers at other firms, I decided to give Julie a call. From the jump, she was a lot more personable than all the other lawyers I had talked to. She took all the worry out of my lawsuit and got me the best possible result! She is extremely knowledgeable in her field and will always answer any questions that may arise. Could not be more grateful to have found Julie!
All I can say about the team at julie o law is I am so thankful a friend of mine told me about them. Without the help of Julie and her professional staff I would have received nothing. All I had to do was make one phone call to Julie and her staff, after that Julie and her staff got me a nice settlement. I went from possibly receiving nothing to being very pleased with what I received. Thank you, Julie and your professional staff. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend that you do also.
Julie is a true gem of a human being
If you need someone knowledgeable, personable, approachable, and who will fight for your case, it’s Julie. Her compassion coupled with her empathy are what separates Julie from other attorneys. Extremely happy with her service and with the outcome of my case.
