I do not recommend this attorney!

I have never met a more unprofessional attorney in my life. He added insult to my tragedy. Took charge of my case for over a year and for some unknown reason quit. During this time, he made some very insulting remarks to a grieving mother. I don’t know if he received a better offer for his services o...r realized he was out of his league. He caused devastation to my family and me. I would not recommend this attorney.

Comfortable and Informative

I consulted with and hired Tony Seaton and his firm! I couldn't be more happy or thankful. I was nervous, not to mention stressed, about my whole situation at first. Mr. Seaton, and his team, gave me nothing but pure honesty, compassion and a "shinning of light at the end of the tunnel". I was ...always kept informed about my case and what positions we were at while moving forward. I was never ashamed or afraid of asking him any questions. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing an attorney, whom has a personable approach making you feel not as just a client, but an actual part of their family.

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.
