Name(Required)

More than twenty-five years ago, Sean began his legal career at a law firm that specialized in defending railroad, intermodal and commercial carriers. From this experience, Sean gained important insights into the inner workings of insurance and transportation companies. More importantly, he learned how these companies respond to catastrophic accidents, analyze claims for settlement and prepare for trial. He took that knowledge and began a career the pursuing justice against those trucking companies, whose negligence caused catastrophic injuries and death.

As an attorney, Sean has successfully argued motions and appeals and has tried cases to verdict in multiple state and federal courts. One of his trademarks is his ability to analyze complex fact patterns and to develop creative legal approaches favoring his clients. That expertise and his “out of the box” thinking often leading to solutions to problems others have missed are just two of the reasons he attracts clients and referrals to the firm.

For the past ten years, Sean has dedicated his practice to the representation of these families that have suffered catastrophic injuries or have lost a loved one at the hands of negligent transportation and trucking companies. Sean uses his past experience and knowledge to evaluate, plan, and prepare cases to secure the best compensation for each of his clients. He has been involved in trucking cases in more than 25 states and has helped his clients obtain more than 100 million in settlements and judgments.

When Sean is away from the office, he spends most of his time with his family. He and his wife, Emily, grew up in Atlanta and attended the Marist School. Emily is employed as an Occupational Therapist by the Gwinnett County School System in the Special Education Department. She works on a day-to-day basis with special needs children and is active within the community providing further assistance to families of special needs children. Sean and Emily have two children, Emma and Hudson.
