Sean did a great job representing us in a business matter. I would highly recommend. Very hard to find an attorney who is honest, responsive, knowledgeable and affordable. Also he's just a great guy!

Sean is literally the best lawyer I have ever worked with. HIGHLY recommend for any civil or family law case. I cannot thank him enough for helping me. His response time is unmatched; any other lawyer I’ve worked with takes a while to respond, if they even do respond. I never once waited more than a day for a response, often times recieving one within the hour. Sean uses practical, logical analogies to help you understand the often times difficult-to-navigate legal jargon. He approaches your case with a sense of realism and professionalism, and provides a strategy that allows for the best possible outcome. Often times we picture lawyers to be cutthroat and aggressive; Sean’s approach seems to be more passive aggressive, allowing for the opposing side to dig their own hole and offering an your side the opportunity to stand out as the logical, controlled side of the case. 5 stars is not enough to rate this extraordinary gentleman.

I’m currently in the process of a custody battle and Attorney Sean Ruppert has gone above and beyond for my family and I. Mr.Ruppert pays attention to detail and works extremely hard on his cases. He cares about all my thoughts, suggestions, feelings and questions. Mr. Ruppert is an extremely compassionate attorney, who can empathize with clients that have sensitive details involved in their case such as myself. I would also like to add that I have got the outcome I desired in my case because I trusted Mr. Ruppert as my family law attorney. I am very satisfied with my entire experience and continue to trust Attorney Sean Ruppert with my family law needs!

Did a great job even with a judge that seemed to be the roughest to be Infront of this side of the state.

Adoptions

I would never recommend this law firm to anyone. We've been trying to adopt our granddaughter, with consent from both birth parents, for almost two years. We had the lawyer working our case, up and leave the firm, and we had no idea. Nobody told us, and finally after not hearing anything for several months, we reached out, to find they left the firm. This same situation occurred a second time with another lawyer, leaving the firm, and we once again weren't notified and had to call to find out. Then we're charged for calling. The retainer we paid to have the adoption done, was ran through, because the previous two lawyers hadn't filled out or filed paperwork correctly, and we were charged again, for their mistakes. Now, since they've wasted our original retainer fixing their problems, they are demanding another retainer fee, just to schedule our court date. The adoption isn't being contested, and we're stuck paying more money, because of their firms' turn over and poor communication.
