Sean does a really good job. I'm really glad that I have him as my attorney. I would highly recommend Sean Forrester from Lerner and Rowe for anybody needing a criminal defense attorney. If you ask me I think he's a really good attorney and definitely worth it. Thank you Sean Forrester for your help.

Sean Forrester of the Lerner and Rowe Law Group represented me in a situation I never though I would be in. Because of a really bad decision I made at a low point in my life, I was facing a possible felony charge; I honestly wasn't even thinking of the repercussions of my actions so I was beyond surprised to be in this serious of a situation. I had no idea that what I had done could reach the level of a felony and quickly realized that this could have long-lasting and substantial impacts on my career and personal life (voting restrictions, employment and volunteer restrictions etc.). I realized that finding a lawyer I could trust would be paramount in this situation and as I started the search for a lawyer, I was quickly overwhelmed; there are many different types of lawyers that focus on different areas of law, and it was a daunting task to find a professional that I felt I could trust. I met with Sean's team initially and one other law firm (i also spoke with around 6 other law firms on the phone). Sean and his team (specifically Jesse Cervantes) were extremely knowledgeable, straight-forward, patient, and understanding. They worked hard to ensure that I understood the various related parts of the Law, the timeline and next steps of what would happen as my case evolved, and the possible various outcomes I would be facing; note that they did this BEFORE i signed a retainer and was one of the many reasons I ultimately retained Lerner & Rowe. Sean, while not excusing my behavior (which I appreciated), was kind and put everything into context, which helped to ease my extremely worried mind. Jesse Cervantes was extremely patient and understanding; he was also knowledgeable and was able to give me a lot of useful information. I was nervous and emotional and Sean never made me feel rushed; he patiently answered all of my questions and did so in a way that made the complexities of law and legal terminology very easy to digest. Sean's knowledge, patience, straight-forwardness, professionalism and honesty during that initial meeting made me select Sean over the other lawyers and law firms I had talked with and met with (some that wanted 6 times the fee charged by Lerner & Rowe); Sean made me feel that I would be best represented by him and Lerner and Rowe, and I was not disappointed. Sean was in constant communication with me over the 5 months that it took to resolve my case. I was extremely detailed with my questions and follow-up and Sean always quickly responded to questions that I had. He was diligent with reaching out to the police department and the prosecutor proactively, which made the process run smoothly. Sean consistently went above and beyond throughout this case. When we were resolving my case, Sean was extremely thoughtful in his approach and because of a request he made, I was able to avoid having a probationary period. I would never have thought to ask for that adjustment and would have been satisfied as much as I could be with the original intended resolution; because of Sean's advocacy, I got a resolution that was even better than I expected. Sean is without a doubt a true and tireless advocate and ally for his clients, irregardless of the size of the case. I was never once disappointed throughout this entire process; something that I was extremely surprised by given the expectations and general distrust we are taught to have about lawyers. While I joked with him after the case was over that I never wanted to see him again (meaning I never want to get in trouble again), I wouldn't want anyone else by my side in a situation like that. I recommend Sean Forrester wholeheartedly and cannot thank him enough for all he did.

Sean met with me when I was facing some very unique charges. Not knowing if he would ever see me again, he took my call(s) had all the information for me for our meeting, and generously shared more information with me and legal advise than I expected. He went on to exchange several emails with me, and call to see how I was doing. If you find yourself in a terrible and difficult situation, call Sean. He even told me to wait before paying him. He is a man of character, principal and integrity.

I reached out to Sean after a friend had referred me to him, and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. He went out of his way to ensure that not only did we get the best result possible, but more importantly he was ALWAYS there for me if I had questions or concerns, and the peace of mind that it gave me having him in my corner was priceless. Polite, professional, and extremely good at his job.

Sean Forrester was highly recommended to me by many colleges that have worked with him. Mr. Forrester shown he was well versed in all issues, extremely knowledgeable and exceeded my expectations in my case. He has superb communication and very passionate in his work and he was FANTASTIC in the court room. I can't thank him enough. I was enormously impressed by not only his tremendous skills as an attorney, but his persistence, will to win, tireless efforts as well as his personal concern for me to have the best result possible. I had a fantastic outcome because of Mr. Sean Forrester's exceptional work!
