Story

Ibold & O'Brien (formerly Petersen & Ibold) is a full service law firm counseling clients throughout northeastern Ohio. As a mid-sized legal practice with a long history, we are able to strategically combine our experience and resources to provide clients with customized legal solutions.

Since our founding in 1980, we have become established, successful members of the legal community in our area. We understand that the continued success of our practice depends on earning the respect and trust of our clients in every situation. We work hard to prove to every client that they made the right decision in coming to us for help. We are proud of the legacy we have built and we hope to continue serving our community for many years to come.

Petersen & Ibold established itself as one of Geauga County's leading law firms by providing outstanding legal advice, representation, and advocacy across a wide range of legal specialties including family law, personal injury, real estate & zoning, criminal defense, DUI, wills, probate, estate planning and elder law, business and corporate, employee representation, worker's compensation, Social Security disability, bankruptcy, collections, product liability, and school law.

We represent individuals, businesses, and government bodies in a broad range of areas. The firm's practice is based in Geauga County, but its lawyers regularly practice in adjoining counties, Federal Court, Appellate Courts, the Ohio Supreme Court, and before state and federal agencies.

More than just attorneys, our lawyers are committed to helping build a strong community. Members of our firm are former public office holders and serve on the Board of Directors of charitable organizations, hospitals, and banks. In addition, they actively sponsor a variety of community events and community organizations.
