For 20 years Sean Joyce has been providing exceptional legal representation to clients facing a host of Family Law issues, including Divorce, Child Custody and Visitation, Child Support, Paternity Actions, Domestic Violence Restraining Orders, Premarital Agreements and Post Nuptial Agreements.
Mr. Joyce’s representation of clients has always been highly effective due to a unique combination of legal knowledge, Courtroom skill, financial expertise and a strong commitment to providing thoughtful, cost-effective solutions for clients. It takes a skilled, experienced attorney to know when to take an issue to Court and when to settle which requires the ability to balance all circumstances facing a client to make the most informed decision. Mr. Joyce learned long ago that getting the best outcome for a client may involve finding a compromise. However, when a client needs someone to fight hard for them, Mr. Joyce is ready for the challenge.
Mr. Joyce provides services to clients in a host of circumstances, including mediation consulting, limited scope representation as well as full scale litigation and trial work. While Mr. Joyce is a seasoned litigator, he has the capacity to work with clients in all manner of cases, including ones where a client just wants to find a quick and easy resolution to what is a very difficult process for many people.
One unique aspect of Mr. Joyce’s practice is that he ensures his case load is always manageable so he is never too busy to respond to a client or address their needs. Unlike many firms that load up their partners and associates with an untenable case load, Lurkis, Joyce & Del Bove, LLP, is committed to ensuring all clients are treated with dedication whether it is a high asset dissolution or a simple child support modification.

I highly recommend Sean to anyone seeking an exceptional family law attorney. I am incredibly grateful a good friend referred me to him during a difficult time.

I feel incredibly grateful to have had Sean as my attorney during my 10-month divorce process. His support and guidance made me feel genuinely understood and well cared for.

I interviewed dozens of lawyers, and I hired one who was soothing but turned out to be incompetent. She was not only a waste of money, she left me hanging with a trial date that was approaching fast. I had to scramble and thank God Sean was willing to take my case. He does not sugar coat anything....

My divorce started with a different attorney. A firm I will not name here who honestly took a great deal of my money with very little oversight.

Fed up, I was referred to Sean Patrick Joyce. What a breath of fresh air. Mr. Joyce took immediate action, ...
