Outstanding and affordable attorney - Exceptional Service

Sean has been my attorney for a little over two years now and it has been a true blessing having him represent me in family court. My cases with my ex were extremely challenging and have been ongoing and dreadful for over 10 years leaving me often times feeling helpless and defeated with other attor...neys in the past. However, since meeting and hiring Sean, he has been able to successfully resolve and win ALL of my cases that my ex kept prolonging. Sean and his team have a great depth of knowledge of the law, and his representation as my attorney has been outstanding each time. When I needed legal assistance Sean and his team gave immediate attention and action. For court, Sean was always prepared and ready, confident and assertive. He defended me and advocated for me and my child. The entire team is compassionate, professional, personable, reliable, and trustworthy. If Sean was unavailable, Michelle and Aurielle were always there to assist and they kept me informed and updated. I strongly recommend Sean and his team to handle your family law matters...You will not regret it. I more than appreciate all they have done over the past 2 1/2 years. They are a true blessing.

Thank you Sean and team!

Wow!! Sean is the best attorney out there! Throughout my case I went through a multitude of attorneys and not one of them worked as hard and diligently as Sean did. Sean was attentive, personable and honest. He did not back down in the court room and ultimately got me the best outcome I could’ve hope...d for. I highly recommend Sean if you are wanting an attorney to be in your corner throughout the whole process.

Amazing family law attorney

Sean WON my custody battle for my toddler. This was such a challenging obstacle to face and Sean restored my faith in the judicial system. To not know if you will be able to keep your own child is terrifying. He prepared me for court and he shut down the other parent! The judge had no choice but to ...rule in my favor. I would only hire him for any future court cases. I will continue to recommend him to family, friends and strangers!

A Phenomenal staff & attorney

After a ridiculously expensive and lengthy divorce, I hired Sean Whitworth for a modification. I couldn’t be more pleased with the results and wish I had hired him to represent me in the divorce. His staff is amazing and communicative throughout the process. I will never even think about hiring ...another family law attorney in the future and will refer everyone to Sean’s office for any family law matter. Sean, his staff, & their system works - hire him and trust the process!

Awesome attorney

From the moment I began contemplating filing for divorce from my husband, I contacted Sean and set up a consultation. We covered a lot of territory during our initial conversation and he made me feel completely at ease instantaneously. We then met in person to go over details, filing the complaint,... etc. and every step of the way, he got the things done that needed doing quickly and efficiently. Divorce is stressful enough but with Sean handling all the things, I felt that I’d get to the finish line without difficulty and I finally did. I highly recommend him to help you through your divorce process. You’ll be glad you did.

"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."

  • 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.
