Excellent Lawyer

I went through a difficult divorce. After consulting with Attorney Barrett, I felt comfortable using him to represent me. Sean was not only very knowledgeable and professional, he was also very comforting to me. Divorce is an emotional process and Sean did his best to shield me from some of the more ...uncomfortable discussions and negotiations. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.

Professional and Dedicated

I had Sean represent me in a divorce case that everyone knew was going to be complicated. When I sat with him for the first time I laid out everything that I wanted to achieve in the case. Believe me it was no short order. From day one, Sean established a plan that we executed together and for the... rest of the case we stayed that original course and he accomplished what every other lawyer said was impossible. Looking back, I can appreciate how much Sean did for me. He answered endless texts and emails, had impromptu meetings with the opposing attorney, and even calmed me down when it was time to wait instead of argue. Because of his dedication and professionalism I was able to get through the painful process of divorce with my children by my side and keep them in their hometown with as little disruption in their lives as was humanly possible. I recommend Sean Barrett without hesitation.

"Sean has consulted on several of my tough cases over the last several years as an attorney and as a legal intern. Sean has the ability to turn a case sideways to find issues that most attorneys would miss. His dogged pursuit of justice means that his clients won't get the short end of the stick and I highly recommend Sean to anyone looking for an attorney."
