I am very pleased with the service I received while working with Sean on a custody modification. He was very responsive and worked diligently to reach a resolution in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to recommend Sean and his office of professionals to others.

Working with you was a great experience. It went way smoother than I could have imagined. You would definitely be the first person I would go to for any legal issues in the future with my baby boy. Thank you , you are amazing. I felt like you cared about my case as much as I did.

Working with Mr. Breen was my first experience needing a lawyer. I was referred to his firm and 2 others. He was the first to call me back, within an hour of my initial message. He explained the process thoroughly and quickly. He didn’t sugarcoat anything and was very up front about the amount of money I might spend as well as what my expectations should be for the hearing I was summoned to. He had a little over 24 hours to prepare from my initial call. He was kind and thorough, his questions during the hearing were thoughtful and prepared and his years of experience was obvious. I would recommend him and will use him again if the need arises.

Sean Breen was hope I was looking for in my very protracted scary and unjust custody case. Not only Mr Breen was able to successfully defend and achieve satisfactory resolution when the odds were slim, his calm resolute and empathetic demeanor helped to alleviate an inevitable stress and worry germane to such cases. I will recommend Mr Breen as an excellent family law attorney without any reservation.

Mr. Breen and his team are the superior law firm in the Treasure Valley. I choose Mr. Breen for his wealth of knowledge in the field of law and his immpecable counsel. Mr. Breen explained all different scenarios and created a plan of action. He guided me through the sizable decisions with the upmost care and benevolence. Without doubt, his service in the military lends to his razor sharp professionalism and forethought. My outcome was excellent. This is the lawyer you want in your corner!

As General Counsel for a large regional title company I have to hire private counsel in many states. Sean is one of the very best and most diligent attorneys I’ve every hired. I highly recommend him for civil and commercial litigation matters.

As a lawyer myself, I seek the best representation when I need a lawyer for a problem outside my professional expertise. Sean lived up to every aspect of the sterling reputation he and his firm have earned in the legal community. Prompt, pleasant, and most importantly, knowledgeable and capable of providing an excellent result, Sean was outstanding. I will definitely call him again if need arises.

Sean helped me through a very difficult divorce case. I watched him in action during depositions and in a trial. I was very pleased with his professionalism and expertise. There was a clear difference between our case and the opposing attorney's. Sean came to trial prepared. He is very intelligent and I really appreciated his pre trial phone call to calm my nerves!
