Sean McQuaid and his staff helped me through a very difficult time and resolved my legal issues quickly and in my favor. According to Leo Rosten, a mensch is "someone to admire and emulate, someone of noble character. The key to being 'a real mensch' is nothing less than character, rectitude, dignity, a sense of what is right, responsible, decorous. The term is used as a high compliment, implying the rarity and value of that individual's qualities.

There are not enough good things that I can say about Mr. McQuaid. He is a fantastic lawyer that exudes intelligence and charisma. In my opinion finding a good lawyer is like finding a good mechanic, its not easy, but once you find a good one you instantly know they are the right person. Upon the first meeting I had with Mr.McQuaid, I knew he was the right man for the job and that he was going to do everything possible to help me in the most dire situation I had ever experienced. I trusted Sean and his legal team, literally putting my life and future into his hands, and I believe they went above and beyond in helping me. I will be a client of Mr.McQuaid for as long as I am alive, I would not even think of considering any other lawyer, legal team, or law office. The customer service and attention to detail is tremendous, his knowledge of the law is sharp, and he made me feel like he really cared. When I am asked by others for a good lawyer in Florida no other name comes to mind other than Sean McQuaid. I really hope this review helps other people who are in need of a great lawyer. This lawyer is the real deal, I honestly believe that going to any other lawyer is a waste of time and money. When your future is at stake there is no time to waste, call Mr.McQuaid, he will help you.

Sean has gotten rid of my SR22, after several lawyers telling me that there is nothing they can do for me. He resolved this issue within a few weeks at a reasonable price. He has always made time to communicate with me on the cases and made sure to keep me in the "loop". He is the only attorney I will ever hire in the future due to the fact that he is very passionate and has so much knowledge about what he does. Sean is very professional and I recommend him to many of my friends and family.

It was certainly my good fortune and sincere pleasure to have Sean McQuaid accept my case. He was very kind and warm and made me feel comfortable immediately. Sean always kept me informed and updated without my having to follow up. Also, it's important to know that Sean always returned my calls quickly and never kept me hanging. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sean and the staff at Battaglia, Ross, Dicus & McQuaid!! Just for example; as I was leaving the lobby a lady stopped me and asked what I thought of the team, as she was new. I told her she did a great job selecting them and she would not be sorry, as I was elated with my outcome! I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Sean for a superior job!! Thank you for taking the time to read this review.

I t is hard to express my gratitude for this outstanding lawyer which I was privileged to know. He worked tirelessly on my case which spanned for 7 long years .His skill and and tenacity of getting of over numerous motions which took us from city court up to U.S.Court of appeals for the 11th Circuit and a ruling from the Supreme Court of Nebraska Also on my team was STEPHEN WEIN AND TIMOTHY WEBER, and to the outstanding staff of BATTAGLIA ,RUSS ,DICUS and SEAN MCQUAID.

Before speaking with Sean, I had spoken with the 5 or 6 most highly rated and respected attorneys locally regarding a simple misdemeanor charge. He was the only one who thought a dismissal would have been an option, the others all wanted me to accept the charge and bill the same amount of money. Sean was passionate about the case and indeed secured the dismissal. Very glad to have made that last phone call to Sean's office. I would recommend him highly to other prospective clients.
