I came to Sean basically backed in a corner by my daughters mother. This evil woman has kept me from my daughter for most of her young life. She was asking for unreasonable custody and support from me. This sick woman even wanted to take my 2 year old to the jungles of Costa Rica for a mission trip while she is still medically fragile. Sean stopped all this from happening and got me joint custody of my daughter and split placement. He defended me from truly false allegations from her and her snake attorney. Help helped me with my low self esteem because of being walked on by my x for almost the past 2 years. I truly am grateful for the work he has done and the fact i can have the relationship I've never had with my daughter. Sean has a razor sharp knowledge of the law and truly care for his clients. I would not hesitate for a second to recommend him if you want to be there for your child. Awesome attorney!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sean is a solid individual who works hard for his clients. My case was a difficult one; in fact we won in the Delaware Supreme Court. I found him to be extremely attentive and superb in explaining all of the legal scenarios concerning my case. Sean genuinely cares about his clients; his professionalism is outstanding. In watching him in action, I see him as an astute trailblazer in new expanding areas of law. I consider him the foremost go-to attorney in Dover, Delaware.

Sean went above and beyond for my family. Any time I needed advice he quickly responded. He is direct , and straight to the point. He shows up and finds all truth and brings it to light. He was our light in a dark hour and he protected us when we needed it the most. Highly recommend Sean and his team!

Sean and his team were extremely helpful, professional, courteous and knowledgeable as they guided me through the family court process. Sean was patient with me, and helped me to understand things every step of the way. His advice throughout the court case helped to prepare me for the protentional outcomes. Sean did his utmost to get issues resolved quickly - which COVID made it nearly impossible, but he kept me informed, heard all of my concerns, and did a fantastic job at addressing them any time I reached out to him. In the courtroom (court zoom) Sean was a zealous advocate for me and I was extremely pleased with the outcome of the case. I have referred several people to Sean, and will continue to do so! Sean and his team work together to create a law practice that is friendly, caring and understanding of their clients needs. I won't ever hesitate to ever call upon him for my legal needs.

I came to Sean with an abusive marriage situation and custody of 3 minor children. I was married for a long time and "working things out" was no longer an option for me. It's hard (in so many ways) to go through a divorce, custody, and property division, especially if the other side doesn't agree to anything. Sean walked me through the process every step of the way and made sure I was comfortable with each decision. He truly heard my concerns and addressed them to the best of his abilities. Sean is very knowledgeable in what he does and doesn't waste or drag out the process. He never advised me poorly and, based on his experience and information presented to him, he was able to best prepare me for possible outcomes of the hearing. Sean was able to quickly sift through all the information provided and select only the most relevant information to present to the judge. Again, very efficient, knowledgeable, and personable attorney. His staff members are very friendly and helpful too. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney for my case. I highly recommend Sean and his team.

Sean Lynn was a beacon of hope to our family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed impossible. His calm and empathetic demeanor is very comforting. Sean Lynn knew every detail of our case and made us feel like we were his number one priority. We are eternally grateful for his service and we recommend him without reservation.

Sean has always been there for our small business. Over the years he has handled our business affairs where an attorney was required. Sean is very professional, knowledgeable and honest. Recently we needed legal documents drawn up quickly for a specific situation. Sean provided the needed document swiftly. All involved were pleased with the outcome. I have recommended Sean over the years and will continue to do so.

Sean is an excellent attorney and I highly recommend him. He was by my side for over a year during a custody battle that was nothing shy of complex. The end result was a final order of sole legal custody & primary placement. He represented me honestly and aggressively and undoubtedly is my go to guy!
