3 years of superb representation

I’ve been through 3 years of legal situations all with Sean Whitworth. What I learned is you have to trust your attorney and Sean is the guy! His billing system is better than most and you’re never overcharged! I won multiple cases in my favor , actually everything that came against me was won in my ...favor! I recommend him highly. He is very busy but always gets back to you and has a friendly staff. Got my son back after he was wrongfully taken in a divorce !!! Thanks Sean!!!!

He is best at what he does!!

I had a very unpleasand divorce process and had couple horrible attorneys before I found Sean. My case took years and during all that time, I clearly see that it is exteremly hard to find trustworthy lawyers and rely on them without worriying. Sean literally did an exceptional job for a reasonable a...mount. He is very agressive in the courtroom and will get the job done in a short time. He has no reason to drag your case down all the time to make money out of it, since he works with a flat fee. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an affortable, thustworthy and profesional attorney. He for sure will get you whatever you asked for and even more.

Fantastic Attorney

I would highly recommend Mr. Whitworth for any of your family law needs. Mr. Whitworth handled my case with compassion and zeal. I had a highly-contentious matter that involved custody of my children and Mr. Whitworth remained hands-on through the entirety of my case. He returned my calls promptly... and always helped me understand the process and made me feel comfortable every step of the way. In the end, I received a favorable outcome and didn't have to break the bank to do it.

Posted by Doris | January 16, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Child Support

Absolutely the best lawyer!!

Attorney Whitworth represented me in a nasty child support matter with my ex-husband. My ex-husband refused to pay child support that was ordered in the divorce proceedings. Attorney Whitworth and Julie were the best. They communicated with me often and responded to all emails and phone calls. I ...truly appreciate their professional handling of my legal matter. Needless to say, I was warned by several friends that hiring a flat fee attorney was a mistake, after reading the reviews on Avvo I contacted and hired Attorney Whitworth and I am Sooooo Glad that I did!!

Posted by Adam | November 09, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Custody case

Sean is a outstanding person as well as a lawyer. He was very straightforward with me from the beginning. He gave me the whole picture as to what could happen. He was great in court and stuck to the issues at stake.Being a single father with doubt the system would grant a father temporary custody, Se...an made me a believer that good things do happen to good people. He is very ethical and gives it to you straightforward. I would highly recommend anyone needing counsel to hire Sean.His staff is excellent with top notch expertise. I can't say enough about Michelle, who right from the beginning had me comfortable to our approach and how things were going to go.I needed someone to start immediately as time was very crucial on my case.They made it happen and led me to victory of round 1 with confidence moving forward. Thank you from my family,Sean,Michelle and Disha for everything.

"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."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
