Great Lawyer - Protected me every step of the way

I hired Sean Sheppard to help me with a divorce matter. I interviewed other attorney's and decided on Sean. Initially I made that decision because he didn't gouge me with an outrageous retainer fee. But I quickly learned that he was extremely diligent, inteligent, and pleasantly agressive in his c...overing my case. He sprang into action and got me thru the divorce in a short period of time and was able to protect all of my assets from a very dishonest and manipulative spouce. Maybe I initially was thinking about money when I hired him, but after going thru this divorce with him representing me I am so glad I ended up hiring Sean over some of those other stuffed shirts. I'd advise anybody looking for a divorce attorney to hire Sean. He is worth every penny of what he charged me and a heck of a decent human being.

Excellent work by Sean

Sean provided guidance, patience, understanding, support and fortitude in the legal services needed to help protect me in divorce proceedings thrust upon me by my wife after 26 years of marriage. Such a hurtful, damaging and dismaying experience would have been magnitudes worse if not for his care, c...onsideration and responsiveness.

Best Divorce/ Alimony Attorney in Northeast FL

As I started my divorce process,I interviewed attorneys from Jacksonville,,Gainesville,Palatka , Daytona and St Augustine. While I was meeting,talking to Sean Sheppard, I knew he was the best. Upon hiring him, he immediately got the ball rolling- in the right direction. Throughout the process he was ...proficient,competent,confident and well prepared. He advised me,comforted me and kept me informed. We communicated for the most part via email. He was efficient and ultimate goal orientated --WITHOUT-- running up the bill. As a result of his keen knowledge and articulation, we prevailed in the outcome of my divorce. I am so fortunate to have have him at /on my side. I would highly recommend him. He is the the one that will be up to bat for you. I must also commend his office staff. They were very communicative and informative. As well as being friendly and supportive.
