Criminal Defense

O’Brien Hatfield, PA is a federal and state criminal defense law firm with offices in Tampa, Florida, Orlando, Florida, and Miami, Florida.

Who We Are
I am the managing partner of O’Brien Hatfield, PA - a federal and state criminal defense law firm with offices in Tampa, Orlando, and Miami. My law firm consists of four lawyers, four legal assistants, two private investigators (both former United States Federal Special Agents), one sentencing mitigation specialist (a former United States Probation Officer), and numerous third party experts (who assist on a case by case basis).


Who I Am
I am nationally recognized criminal defense attorney with over 25 years of experience in state and federal criminal courts all throughout the country. After beginning my professional career as a Miami, Florida prosecutor in the late 1990’s, I organized my own law firm in 2002, based upon the professional lessons I learned to that point in my life, with the goal defending those accused of state and federal crimes. I was born and raised in New York. I attended law school and completed my internships in and around Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. And I started my career in Miami, Florida. There is nothing I have not seen, done, or dealt with in and/or out of a criminal courtroom. I bring 25 years of state and federal criminal court experience to those accused of federal crimes in federal criminal courts throughout the nation.


My Team
In addition to my experience and training, I have assembled a team to assist in defending my clients. Similar to my role as a former prosecutor, I brought professionals into the fold who used to work in various federal law enforcement capacities. It is important to stay one step ahead of the other side and the only true way to accomplish this goal is to have already done what the other side is planning to do. I supplement my experience, training, and skill with two former special agents and one former federal officer, each of whom have a very specific sets of skills. This includes a former Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) Federal Special Agent, a former Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Criminal Investigation Division Federal Special Agent, and a former United States Probation Officer. Together, these three individuals have approximately 100 plus combined years’ experience (over 30 years each) in federal criminal courts throughout the country:

A Former United States Probation Officer
I have incorporated the knowledge, skill, training, and experience of a former United States Probation Officer who served United States District Court Judges in the preparation of pre-sentence investigation reports for over twenty-six years into my law firm. He has a wide ranging background related to the United States Sentencing Guidelines, statutory penalties, and mitigation development. During the first ten years of his career, he served as a United States Probation Officer and then a Senior United States Probation Officer in a special investigations division, conducting hundreds of pre-sentence investigations in a wide variety of criminal cases. During the last sixteen years of his career, he served as the supervisor of a special investigations unit where he analyzed nearly a thousand pre-sentence investigation reports for accuracy and completeness prepared by subordinate United States Probation Officers. Throughout his three decades in the public and now private practice, he received specialized training in all matters related to federal sentencing, including criminal background investigations, sentencing guideline applications, and legal research. Aaron also served as an adjunct trainer for both the Administrative Office of United States Courts and the Federal Judicial Center. Late in his career, he was commissioned as a member of the Administrative Office of the United States Courts Pre-Sentence Investigation Report Working Group. As a member of my law firm, and no other, Aaron now uses the knowledge and expertise he gained during his career to assist my clients in the pre-plea, pre-sentencing, and post-sentencing phases of their federal criminal cases. Over the course of my representation of you, he will conference with you multiple times to develop mitigation and assess your federal sentencing guideline ranges and statutory penalties. This is done at my direction. It is important to note that he shares with you the same attorney-client privilege that I share. Therefore, please be fully cooperative and truthful with him at all times. No other law firm has someone like him. Please take advantage of what he has to offer. We are truly blessed to have his expertise and experience on our side.

A Former White Collar Crime Federal Special Agent
I also incorporated the knowledge and skill and the training and experience of a former Federal Special Agent with the IRS Criminal Investigations Division. After twenty-seven years as a federal agent, he is now one of two of my law firm’s licensed private investigators. He is also a certified fraud examiner and forensic accountant. He provides invaluable knowledge and expertise in all of our white collar, fraud, and money laundering cases.

A Former Federal Intelligence and Narcotics Special Agent
We also have the knowledge and skill and the training and experience of a retired United States Marine Intelligence Officer and former United States Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). He was the honor graduate in his DEA class. After graduating, he transferred to a then newly formed, paramilitary, special operations unit known as FAST. The FAST Unit deployed to the country of Afghanistan to assist in investigations against narcotics organizations supplying terrorists with funding. While in Afghanistan, he successfully extradited a top tier heroin drug traffickers and narco-terrorists to the United States for prosecution. Over his career, he participated in other world deployments, wherein he advised foreign nationals on the investigation of narco-traffickers. He has participated in all aspects of narco-trafficking law enforcement, including surveillance operations, wiretap operations, and arrest operations at the state and federal level. He was in charge of macro and micro narco-trafficking investigations, including state, national, and worldwide operations, including coordination with local agencies. After twenty-five distinguished years with the DEA, he finished his career in Tampa, Florida, wherein he retired as a Group Supervisor. He understands how federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies and prosecutors operate nationwide.

What are your firm's strengths and style?

The United States Constitution guarantees every individual the right to a fair trial and the presumption of innocence until proven guilty. This fundamental principle is upheld in federal criminal defense, where Mr. O’Brien works tirelessly to protect the rights of the accused.

The role of a criminal defense attorney is to provide legal representation to individuals charged with federal and state crimes.

When accused of such crimes, individuals often seek the white collar criminal defense services of Mr. O’Brien to represent them in federal and state criminal court.

Our role is to protect the rights of his clients and ensure they receive a fair trial. This can involve challenging the evidence presented by the prosecution, negotiating plea deals, and presenting a strong defense case. In many cases, wherein trial is not the best option, we will work to mitigate the potential consequences of a conviction, such as fines, restitution, and most importantly imprisonment.

One of the key arguments in favor of retaining O’Brien Hatfield, PA is that everyone is entitled to a fair trial, regardless of the nature of the crime they are accused of committing. This is a fundamental principle of the American justice system, and it is the responsibility of the defense attorney to ensure that this principle is upheld.

* Nolo has confirmed that every member attorney has a valid license and is in good standing with the state agency that licenses lawyers. Any past disbarments and suspensions (with possible exceptions for minor violations or nonpayment of dues, in our discretion) will be indicated accordingly in the badge. Member attorneys are required to notify Nolo immediately if they become the subject of any disciplinary action by any state licensing agency.
