Reviews:
Review from Attorney Wade Coye: I have worked with Sean McCormack on Worker’s Compensation matters and have found his skills are excellent. He’s a go to person to work with on complicated matters, and I highly recommend him for co-counsel arrangements.
Review from Brandon Bonney: I have been a client of Sean McCormack for a while now. Top notch representation! He answers all questions quickly, thoroughly and most importantly, accurately! Workers Compensation is a complex journey, Sean and his team work hard to make sure things stay on the right track every step of the way!
Review from Dan Z: I’d like to thank my attorney Sean McCormack and his team for winning my case. This was a workers compensation case which was due to work injury in Orlando Florida. Sean and his team, Lesly and Nicole, were amazing. They were always available anytime I needed to ask a question, even if it was for a simple update. They always kept in touch with me, which was such a help and relief. I would definitely recommend them to everyone. And just to be clear this was a case that was turned down by a larger firm here in Orlando who is always on tv. It just goes to show you that you should never pick an attorney by their advertising budget. Colling Gilbert Wright were amazing. Thanks Sean for standing alongside me and winning my case.
