Sean Phelan's Lawyer Endorsements
"Lawyers who spend time, pro bono, assisting the public on sites like this are rare. It's important to give back and it's good to see lawyers like you who do. You get my endorsement for sure."
"Sean and I have been opposing counsel in several cases. He was an effective advocate for his clients. He is also an effective negotiator and a pleasure to work with. Sean is a good example that you do not need to be an overly aggressive, hostile attorney to achieve good results for clients. I recommend Sean for anyone that has been injured in an accident or had a medical surgery that was performed negligently."
