Sean and his team are great to work with. Sean has great communication, is very willing to listen to you and give the best advice possible based from your questions. Extremely knowledgeable and does a great job explaining the at times very complicated legal system. He is very balanced, and did an awesome job with my custody study when I was facing a very difficult case. Would definitely recommend.
Sean did a phenomenal job preparing for our trial and negotiating down spousal support saving me 72% in monthly payments. I appreciate the detail that Sean took and was he very well prepared. Thank you for help with this spousal modification case.
I was referred to Sean by a friend and I am so thankful! Right from the start I knew this was the best choice I could have made. He is confident because he is so knowledgeable, intelligent and not afraid to talk to the opposing attorney. Sean is clear and intentional. He gets right to the point but is also a great coach! This was one of the most difficult times in my life and I made it through knowing I had Sean and his team. We did win our case, but I would still recommend him if we didn’t. He was right there in my case. Dedicated and committed to the best outcome for my daughter and myself. I am forever thankful and would absolutely use him again should I find myself in family court again.
Sean and his team provided prompt, professional, and prudent care for our family. Their zealous advocacy made a prolonged and protracted high conflict proceeding palatable. Sean understood the nuances and gut punches of an opposing party with personality disorders that few lawyers get. He handled opposing counsel with grace and aplomb despite their maneuverings and misinformation campaigns.
I cannot recommend Sean Stephens and his legal team highly enough. Their attention to detail, quality of communication and depth of preparation were a constant comfort. Their approach was an unwavering example of partnership and transparency during my divorce proceedings.
Sean backed up by Alecia went to bat for my best interests during a difficult divorce. Sean negotiated the terms and the result was a giant savings for me. I highly recommend this firm.
I cannot adequately express my gratitude for the results Sean Stephens was able to deliver in my litigation with a hostile ex. Sean is an incredible trial attorney that fights for the rights of his clients, while balancing a heavy workload. Because of Sean’s preparation and courtroom experience, we were able to increase my time with my children by 110%. If you want results from a family law attorney... I highly recommend you retain Sean Stephens.
Sean was greatly helpful in guiding me through the process of my divorce. He helped me understand the legal landscape in family law and advocated for me with with the opposing attorney and the judge. The judgement I received was fair, and I believe that Sean's experience helped diffuse some of the conflict that that threatened to draw out the case and make it more difficult and expensive for both parties. On top of that, he is highly personable and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking guidance through the challenges of dissolving a marriage.
We hired Mr. Stephens for an unusual third party custody case concerning a teenager. Sean and his professional team were great about communicating with us in a timely manner, and were highly competent in both preparing for multiple scenarios and handling an extremely volatile and unpredictable defendant. I would also add that Sean did a great job of talking directly to our teenager about the legal issues and making him feel like his issues and opinions were heard. In the end, Sean got us exactly what we needed to protect the child at the center of the case. I recommend Sean Stephens enthusiastically.
When I filed for divorce I met with Sean and he went over the divorce process with me and explained the cost estimates along with the timelines. He was thorough with my information and made sure the process went as planned. His charges can the time it took to get divorced was much less than projected. He is a very competent attorney and truly cares about the best interest of his clients. He has a very good office assistant staff and was very accessible when I had questions. I highly recommend Sean for anyone considering a divorce.
