Top-Notch Divorce Lawyer

Sean represented me in my divorce. His knowledge of the law and experience in the area divorce and child custody was evident throughout. He carefully listened to my concerns and provided well-reasoned advice. While some lawyers might take an emotionally charged situation as an opportunity to run u...p their fees, Sean was contantly looking for the most efficient resolution of my dispute. I recommend him without reservation.

Competent, Experienced, Professional, Personable

When my wife filed for divorce, I began looking for legal representation. Because I am an attorney, I was able to call other lawyers that I know and respect to find out who to hire. Everyone said that Sean is the best choice in the Willamette Valley, so I hired him. In my experience with Sean, I f...ound that he is experienced, respected by other lawyers - and most importantly by the judge. He is intelligent, cool under pressure, tough as nails, but still exhibits a confidence paired with congeniality that influences others and put me at ease. Sean was attentive to the details and communicated frequently to keep me informed and answer questions. Sean also has an excellent staff to support him and keep costs down.

Sean rocks!

Sean helped us resolve a situation that had no end in sight for us. He was very knowledgeable and personable and we appreciated his candidness and positive attitude in the midst of a frustrating legal process. We felt like he truly had our best interests at heart and understood what we were going thr...ough. With Sean's help, we were able to resolve the issues with a more favorable outcome than we anticipated...a huge burden was lifted from our shoulders. We highly recommend him.

Child Custody

Sean handled our case very professionally yet was sensitive to our fears & concerns. He knew the path we needed to go down and handled our objections very well. There were times we did not understand why we were doing things and Sean took the time to explain the reasons. There is no doubt had it n...ot been for Sean and his team we would not have won our case and our daughter is now safely in our custody.

Outstanding client care with superb professionalism

Mr. Armstrong is a professional, courteous, attentive, and extremely capable attorney. He had a road map and asked me to follow it with him and never over promised but always delivered. I am grateful for the care, courtesy, and professionalism I received through a very difficult process.

"Sean works hard for his client while always being reasonable, something that is too often lacking in the approach of other attorneys. He is knowledgeable, absolutely competent in lawyerly skills but his most effective trait in negotiations is his always pleasant personality. He uses this attribute to the client's advantage in every case. He is an excellent attorney."
