Ultimate Professional

Attorney Sean Whitworth was a true advocate during my custody case. He was professional, honest, and always made me feel supported. Thanks to his guidance and expertise, I got the outcome I hoped for. Highly recommend!

Sean and Michelle are the best!

My family is so grateful to Sean for solving our custody issue. We went through two other attorneys before we found him, and boy was it worth it! He got right to work, was always very responsive, and we got our desired outcome much faster than we expected! Michelle was great as well! Hire him, yo...u won't be sorry!!

Amazing Attorney and Gentleman

WOW!!! That's all I can say. Mr. Whitworth is an amazing attorney and gentleman. His skills and temperament was awesome throughout this very difficult journey. He is kind but tough when necessary. He guided us through the process. Explained everything. He acted with speed, urgency and thorough...ness and what we were told could take a year or more, Sean delivered in a few months. We are still in shock at how quickly he delivered the result we needed. His fees are so low compared to other attorneys we interviewed. He was our third attorney after paying high consultation and retainer fees with no service. His communication was amazing. He and his Assistant, Michelle were diligent and responsive to answer any questions and encouraged us to ask questions and not be afraid to share our concerns. It was an amazing process, progress and ultimate VICTORY. Sean and Michelle our family will be forever grateful to you and will gladly refer anyone facing the challenges we faced. God bless....

Satisfaction Overload

It would take more than the 4000 max characters to share the amazing experience meband my family experienced with Mr. Whitmore. From the consultation that he gave more than ample time to engage in and his prompt handling of my case, he comes highly recommended for family cases especially those involv...ing a child. When I located Mr. Whitmore I was at the end of my rope and had loss faith in the quality of legal representation that was available to help me. He gave me and my family restored hope! He's to the point, his office very responsive and professional. When I needed him or had questions I didn't have to wait long for the answers. His assistant Michelle, was always prompt with her responses, pleasant during every interaction and never failed to assist us when needed. My prayers were definitely answered when I prayed for an attorney who was a child advocate and that knew the system. These two qualities were a necessity for my case. To conclude this experience, the outcome was a success and literally saved the future of a very amazing child. We will be forever grateful and highly recommend him for any families that need a resolve that results in a child's best interest! Believe me my hype it's Real and well deserved.

"I was peripherally involved in a case with Sean, who represented a parent in a custody dispute. While everyone else was usually up in arms with drama, including myself, Sean remained collected and focused, and kept the case on track. The case recently resolved at mediation, and the outcome was the best possible scenario for all parties, and most importantly, the baby. Sean is patient and kind to all parties throughout litigation, but can and certainly will, become the staunch advocate that is needed to make sure the law is followed, and his client's legal rights protected. I recommend Sean to anyone who wants to ensure the best possible outcome for themselves and their children in a custody dispute. Custody dipsutes are painful enough as is....you need an attorney who will avoid the drama and stay focused on the lives that will be affected."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
