I know attorneys can get a bad rap, but I can tell you that without a doubt Sean Breen and his associates have the highest level of integrity you will find. Divorce and child custody issues can be very intimidating. It was so helpful that Mr. Breen has an extensive knowledge of the laws, he also has the ability to stay calm, cool,and collected at all times. I know he prides himself on fast results and keeping things amicable when possible, but will fight the fight when necessary with dedication

It has been a pleasure to deal with Sean and the staff at Manweiler, Breen, Ball, & Davis. I have been in a ongoing high-conflict divorce for an extended period of time due to circumstances beyond my control. Sean has been professional during the whole process. I have appreciated his ethics, integrity, and his heart to go the extra mile. While the process is not comfortable, I know that Sean has fought for me and the safety of my Son. I highly recommend Sean.

Sean has been able to communicate details and specifics to me so that I understood exactly what is going on. I was able to get into mediation extremely quickly and visits with my children returned within 7 days. Sean has been on the ball with my case and replies to any questions in a speedy manner! I appreciate all the effort that he puts forth.

Sean is very upfront and to the point. He keeps you aware of the amount of time spent with him and the amount of time he has spent on your case. He is fair and always wants what is best for his clients.

I highly recommend Sean, Ashley, and the staff I worked with throughout my divorce process. They were professional and pleasant to work with. Sean explained everything clearly and honestly, while being compassionate and kind. He's very knowledgeable and ambitious in fighting for his clients. Divorce is stressful, emotionally & mentally draining, and to have a highly skilled attorney like Sean on your side is a blessing and makes it much more bearable.

Mr. Breen knows what he is doing. His experience in family law and his presence in the courtroom made me very confident in his abilities. Issues pertaining to your children and custody can give you a lot of anxiety. Sean understands the concerns you have as a parent, and addresses them fully, explains them clearly, and fights for what is right. I highly suggest anyone that needs help with custody to seek his services, it is well worth it. I owe a lot to his abilities.
