our philosophy
Family Law
with Sean R. Whitworth
My office never forgets that the person sitting across the desk from me is not just another client but a person who has come to us for help, and this means that the moment you walk into my office you have an attorney at your side advocating for your interests, and if this means aggressive litigation that is fine. However, if your issue can be resolved with less financial costs and emotional burdens I will seek this path. Regardless of which approach best meets the needs of your particular issue, this office will handle your matter with the personal attention it deserves.
