I am not a trusting person. My professional and personal experiences have instilled in me a genuine distrust for people. Sean is the exception. From the first conversation, he exuded a confidence that affirmed me in my darkest hour. I felt supported and that was what mattered. I wanted someone ...who would follow through. The results were exactly what I expected. Sean delivers. Period.

Sean Mangan is a fantastic attorney. He is tenacious, thorough, and empathetic with his clients. I am an officer who was on a promotion list and was recently informed of a SHARP complaint. I contacted Sean and he was immediately responsive, informative, and reassuring. With the current political clim...ate, even a false SHARP complaint can be devastating to your career. I was understandably scared and worried. Sean helped me through the investigation process, engaging with the chain of command and law enforcement to advocate for my rights and my reputation. He helped demonstrate that the complaint was completely false and presented evidence showing that the “alleged victim” had previously given false sworn testimony in another matter. Through his intervention, the charges were dropped completely, the flag was removed favorably, and I received my promotion with the proper date of rank. As I said before, in today’s political climate, a SHARP accusation can be devastating. The military will do all it can to find you guilty even if you are innocent. The system is not designed to protect the accused, even if they did nothing wrong. I recommend hiring Sean immediately and allowing him to intervene proactively early in the process. He cares about his clients and seeing that they are afforded their rights. I highly highly recommend him!

I called Sean for a free consultation after being told I was under a 15-6 investigation. He gave me great advice for free and laid out all the steps we needed to take. I hired Sean to represent me, he stayed one step ahead of my chain of command and their legal team. His ability to shoot holes in a 1...5-6 and write a response to the action taken by my chain of command resulted in no action taken. Sean gave me piece of mind during the worst period of time in my career. Do not regret not reaching out to sean, if you are on the edge just call him, it is absolutely worth it.

I’m an active duty Marine, I filed for a religious exemption of the COVID vaccine and I got denied by HQMC. I had ten days to reply with a Appeal all the great reviews lead me to Sean Mangen he was responsive and helpful throughout the whole process he compiled a 78 page appeal that allowed me to fin...ished out my contract and not be bothered with any of the Vaccine punishments

If you are reading this, congratulations. Your search for attorneys is over. Stop and CALL SEAN RIGHT NOW. This is a very competent, intelligent, knowledgeable, compassionate, and caring attorney. If he takes your case, he will deliver superior advocacy and will not back down until you get the best o...utcome humanly possible within the circumstances of your situation. And I say call him now because his prowess has not gone unnoticed. There will inevitably come a time (even if it is temporary) when he doesn’t have the bandwidth for new clients simply because there are only 24 hours in a day. I don’t want that to happen to you and for you to miss out on this attorney. Whatever your specific legal circumstances, (if you’re reading this), you need someone with his skillsets and experience to defend you. Okay that being said, here is a bit more about my situation. I have been dealing with a challenging and multifaceted legal matter for nearly the past 3 years. I was facing a 15-6, criminal investigation, and a complicated medical issue that lay at the root of all my legal troubles. Over that time, I interviewed at least 15 attorneys. I even hired 3 before I landed on Sean. All of my prior counsels had their strong points and were superior attorneys, skilled at their craft. But my gut just told me that they weren’t the right people for my case. While every case is unique, almost every legal issue can fall into a certain category/ box. Mine truly couldn’t, because it differed from 99% of legal matters. I needed a lawyer who didn’t just follow a cookie-cutter approach. I needed someone who was a nuanced, critical thinker with strong instincts and an adaptable and proactive approach. Someone who was forward-thinking. It wasn’t until Sean took my case that I finally started sleeping at night. And I haven’t looked back. He gave me an exceptional outcome that I didn’t dream possible because no other attorney I spoke to believed I had a shot. But Sean listened and we stayed the course together until WE WON. He is honest, empathetic, a great listener, and (most importantly), he understands the system. He knows how it works. He knows how to interact with your Command and with the military’s prosecutors. He is a bulldog when it comes to defending you. I was amazed how my Command didn’t even bother responding to my prior attorneys, but then suddenly started becoming responsive as soon as Sean got involved. They knew that they were dealing with a formidable adversary. Sean will make you feel protected as he puts your opponents on the run in a way that only he knows how to do. But he also has the charisma and interpersonal skills to negotiate when the time is right. You see, the military’s legal system may feel like a giant, unhuman behemoth to you, but it is personality driven. A skilled attorney knows how to navigate those personalities. Sean will give them a tactical victory to soothe their egos if it means that the strategic victory will be yours in the long run. He is also PROACTIVE rather than reactive. Many attorneys will tell you just to “lie low” and wait for bad things to happen to you so they can respond/ rebut and bill you for their time. Meanwhile, you are stressing out and feeling powerless. In contrast, Sean will actually GET AHEAD of things and get your case resolved before it snowballs into a disaster. That is what he did for me. Your time is valuable and you have decisions to make. I leave you by wishing you the best of luck in your search for attorneys and repeat my advice to- CALL SEAN RIGHT NOW. Even if you don’t hire him, he will answer your questions and provide you with invaluable advice going forward (for free). If you do hire him, it will be one of the best decisions you ever made.
