Professional and Personable

Sean is a very professional and personable attorney and now, friend. My husband was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of early onset dementia, As his disease progressed, he became more and more aggressive with our two teenage sons. It became necessary to ask my husband to leave our home for the... safety of our children. He refused to leave and I received no support from his family. Finally the day came when the police became involved and I moved my children out of the home. Everything fell apart from there. Long story short he finally left and moved out of state to live with his mother. After the move, there was no more communication. Months went by and we heard nothing from my husband and his family refused to speak to us. Hence, I filed for divorce. There was nothing more I could do.... This was an unprecedented divorce case. How do you divorce your demented husband? You don't. You divorce his family members who now have power of attorney and think you are the worst person on earth for abandoning your demented husband... Sean took this case by the horns and followed through on every unpioneered move .An out of state divorce requires extra measures, But divorcing someone who doesn't even know who you are anymore takes a lot more. Sean knew them all. In the end, I got to keep my retirement and most of my assets. My children are mine to raise and I also got to keep our home to raise them in. I can't thank Sean enough for all that he has done to keep my family together and thriving.

"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."
