About

Sean Corcoran believes that family comes second only to God.  It is this foundation which guides him in his life and in the practice of law.Sean has years of experience in Family Law, Civil Litigation, Personal Injury, Contract Litigation, Criminal Litigation, and Property Disputes. In his time as an Assistant District Attorney in Calcasieu Parish, Sean gained invaluable case management and courtroom experience. His typical caseload at the Calcasieu Parish District Attorney's Office was 400-600 files, over two divisions at the 14th Judicial District Court, and one division at the Lake Charles City Court.Sean knows the feeling of loss, and the fears associated with the immediate and long-term future after suffering loss. For a period of seven years in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Sean became addicted to methamphetamines and other substances. Through this addiction, he lost his relationships with family and friends, and became homeless and unemployed. Sean hit rock bottom in the aftermath of Hurricane Rita. By the grace of God, Sean was given a second chance at life and entered treatment. Through the recovery process, Sean returned to college and received a degree in Accounting, advanced to Law School at LSU, and began a rewarding career in the legal field. (for more on that, see https://www.facebook.com/lseancorcoran/posts/10100679648047341)Because of this, Sean is in a unique position to empathize with those suffering loss of any kind, and uses his personal experience to assure his clients that the future is not hopeless, and they will rebuild their lives.

Sean and his staff provided me exactly what I needed and from a long distance at that. Living in Central Texas and pursuing a divorce in Louisiana is not an easy process but he made it as easy as possible for me while keeping me informed throughout the entire process. I was not asking for anything more than a standard divorce and visitation rights and he delivered just that while keeping me informed of all other options I had at my disposal. We were able to secure exactly what I wanted and now I am able to see my son on a regular basis. I would highly recommend Sean and his staff to anyone. I look forward to using him for any other needs I have in the future dealing with my personal situation. I felt safe and secure throughout the process and that safe and secure feeling continues even today.

Sean and his staff are absolutely wonderful! Sean took his time with me and made sure I understood everything that was happening and got things done in a timely manner! I had things that were left undone for two years and within a matter of weeks he had everything finished up and ready to go! He genuinely cares for his clients and it is easy to see! I will continue to stick with him and would gladly recommend him to anyone! I actually started with another attorney and had a massive case that just kept building, building and of course costing more and more for absolutely no reason at all! Sean immediately took on my case, dug in and got things done!!!!

Sean Corcoran is a great attorney, his ability to stay focused on every aspect and on every level is amazing. Honestly he makes his clients feel at ease even when I felt scared or unsure of the next steps. Sean was always able to provide knowledge and advice that no one else could. He is a faith bound man and you can see this in his work in and out of the office. Sean gives the personable touch that many divorce attorneys cannot, he’s willing to go the extra mile and spend the time not only by guiding you but by also reassuring you that everything will be just fine. He has spent countless hours with me just discussing the future. God put Sean in our path and it has been revealed to me time and time again. He definitely has made my journey comforting, knowing he has our best interest at hand.

The service was excellent and he was always honest and to the point. There were no gray areas he thoroughly went over every thing and laid out the truth of the situation whether it was what I wanted to hear or not. I felt that he always tried to come to a peaceful resolve and wasn't trying to do unnecessary things to rack up a bill. He seemed to have a genuine concern for his client. I would definitely recommend him.

SEAN IS THE BEST HANDS DOWN! He has helped me obtain and maintain custody! He’s extremely professional and one of the best priced attorneys out there. He doesn’t set unreal expectations and is completely professional! I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to represent me

Mr .Corcoran was great ! He is a very caring man,he took on our case for free. We lost our niece in a fire and Mr. Corcoran helped us get full custody of our grandson. He was very professional and kind and caring. He kept us up to date on everything with weekly phone calls, or visits. While in court, he went back and forth with both sides until a reasonable custody agreement was made, the whole time he let us know he was working for us,and would only do what we wanted done. After the court date he has kept up with how things were going. Very professional and I would recommand to anyone needing a family lawyer. Thank You!

Attorney Sean Corcoran was amazing throughout a recent custody dispute that he represented me in. He was very knowledgeable, professional, personable, caring, compassionate, highly trust worthy, and ethical. He made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain step by step what was going on in case, possible scenarios, and outcomes of what could occur. He spent a lot of extra time making sure I understood everything going on about my case and about court process. I believe this was priceless and made me more comfortable with him and just the entire court process. He is just an amazing lawyer and I would highly recommend him to anyone that is in need of legal services. Would highly recommend Attorney Sean Corcoran to anyone in need of legal services.

I can not express enough my gratitude for Sean and his staff! When I contacted his office, I had concerns about my child. Sean immediately took action and put my child's welfare first. Any and all of my questions were answered promptly and explained to me thoroughly. It is very apparent Sean and his staff really care about their clients, but more importantly, doing what is best for the children involved. As a parent, there is nothing more to put your mind at ease than knowing your concerns about your child are being heard and met. And that is why I highly recommend Sean.

Sean is fabulous, I had another attorney that was very slow with everything in my divorce and was not making any progress with the community property, I decided to change attorneys, to be able to settle the community property. I researched quite a bit and decided to meet with Sean, he met with me on a Saturday morning and he wrote out the steps and timeline for each part of the process, and promised to keep this timeline, which he has and now we are wrapping it up. He always answers emails same day if not within a few minutes and returns calls and has given me great advice all along, I couldn’t have hoped for better representation and feel that he has made things easier for me and saved me money in the long run, I highly recommend him. I only wish I would have had him as my lawyer when I first got divorced.

Sean is a great attorney. He did everything I asked him to do and accomplished exactly what I asked for in our initial meeting. He explained everything to me in detail and made sure I understood everything I was agreeing to. His staff is knowledgeable and he is a fair attorney. All of my phone calls got returned promptly. I have already referred someone to him and if anyone else needs a Family Law attorney in the future I will definitely recommend Sean.
