Law Offices Of Sean P. Stokes, Pllc

DISAPPOINTING experience with Mr. Stokes. We were already prepared with exhibits, etc... for a trial & we hired him mainly to expedite court procedures. It took months longer than we expected, as he had no filing or mediation actions until months later, 2 days before our scheduled hearing. And he was hired for legal advice (he rarely responded to emails or phone messages). And, he was paid to honor our requests. Instead, he scolded our requests, argued, & did what he wanted. We reached out to him several times, letting him know the stress of waiting for a discussion with other party was causing our family much unneeded anxiety. He didn't seem to get our priority & he never responded & never kept his initial promise. He didn't even do any court doc. filings, the other party's lawyer did the drafting. Regarding the drafted order, we had no time to review & it was emailed to us, night before our trial. Order humored the other party's lies (other party is still defaming us on social media!). We signed last minute order just for "dismissal purposes". Although, it defeated the purpose of us showing our innocence & proving other party's purgery & abuse! For a family lawyer, Mr Stokes sure didn't seem to understand family needs. He got paid thousands of dollars for doing not much.
