Testimonials

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY ABOUT US

It is my pleasure to write this recommendation on behalf of Michael O’Brien and O’Brien Benefits & Financial Services. Michael has been the Benefits Consultant for the Town of Purcellville for the past 3 years. He has been very proactive in suggesting enhancements to our current benefit programs, seeking ways to upgrade our plans, yet, being mindful and respectful of our budget constraints. He offers vast knowledge of different benefits plans and providers. He will work tirelessly to find solutions that meet the needs of employees and a company’s budget. Michael sourced and assisted in the implementation of a voluntary benefits program, including attending enrollment meetings. He assisted me in conducting meetings regarding some changes in our health insurance program even though he was not the broker for that plan. Michael is service oriented and responsive and a definite pleasure to work with. I would recommend him highly as an expert in his field.

Tracy DeMonte - Human Resources Officer The Town of Purcellville

Now that my husband and I work exclusively for our small business, we were faced with the overwhelming task of obtaining independent health insurance. Mr. O’Brien was responsive to our questions, honest in his response, and provided detailed information on multiple plan options. His knowledge gave us an advantage in understanding and selecting a family health insurance plan outside of the Health Insurance Exchange that met our growing family’s needs. My family and I are very grateful for his counsel and support.

Mike was our insurance agent as we were starting our family. He was extremely helpful in outlining what we needed, what we did not need, and things to consider in the future. He answered the long list of questions that we came with and was extremely helpful.

I recommend Mike without any reservations.

Greg Wagner

Michael O’Brien was very easy to work with and very knowledgeable of many life insurance policies. When I showed him the policy my wife and I had he told us he could do better. He did more then that. He increased our policy by another hundred thousand dollars and we pay almost twenty dollars less a month for a better policy. He provided outstanding service and always had answers for all our questions. I would recommend him to anyone looking for better rates and coverage.
