I do not usually do reviews on businesses or products, but Sean O'Neill and his legal team deserves this to be made known to others looking for legal advice. A short back drop of my legal interaction with O'Neill Law Firm is necessary for all who read this to understand my 5-star rating. My 3-year legal involvement with this law firm fought against one of the best law firms in the La Crosse area and the financial assets of a multi-millionaire family. O'Neill Law fought every step of the way for my family's financial assets. A "legal deck of cards" was stacked totally against my family, and I had to trust O'Neill Law to bring about "the best in the worst case scenario". Sean and his legal team worked for multiple years around the clock on my case to soften the financial and psychological impact this was having on my family. Sean's honesty, professionalism, clear and consistent communication, and amazing legal creativity was worth EVERY DOLLAR I WAS CHARGED!!! Without Sean and his legal team, I believe that the financial and psychological results could have been devastating. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and God Bless you Sean O'Neill and your super legal team.

Sean was not my lawyer however he was my boss's divorce lawyer. Sean worked tirelessly hours on his case fighting for my boss to keep his his business and won. Behind every owner are employees. When an owner goes through a divorce everyone goes through it. Everyone worries about their jobs. Sean made it so my boss was able to keep his business and to top this cake I bought in at 50 percent owner after all said and done! When my now co partner retires I will take on this business. Because of Sean he saved it. He saved our jobs and I now have a retirement plan. If you need a divorce attorney who will fight for you and I mean FIGHT hire Sean. He even emailed back on Sundays. The man never stopped. Thank you for helping my dream come true though all of this Sean!

Sean is very knowledgeable of the law. He won’t steer you wrong. He’s a straight shooter. He’ll tell you what you need to do and what not to do in your situation. He won’t waste your time and he doesn’t nickel and dime you. I’m glad I found him when I did. I’ve only gotten positive results with his counsel. I would recommend him to anyone.

I can’t say enough good things about Sean and his staff. I had a very messy divorce. I worked with another lawyer for seven months and he did very little for me except continually remind me that Wisconsin was a 50/50 state and that even though I brought significant assets into the marriage while my ex had, none, I earned about three times more during the marriage, and we were only married for a short time, I was going to have split everything 50/50 with him. He pressured me to agree to a very bad mediation deal.
Luckily, before having the judge finalize the mediation agreement, I came across Sean‘s reviews on Google. I wasn’t just looking at how many stars he was given but I read what people wrote about him. People repeatedly commented on his commitment, his dedication, and going the extra mile. I made an appointment for a consultation with Sean. Within the first five minutes of our meeting, he said, “Let me show you what the law actually says, I have had to educate other counsel and judges about this.” He printed off the actual law where it states that Wisconsin is a 50/50 state after consideration is made for the following items, which included length of marriage, what each brought into the marriage, and the length of the marriage.
After talking a little more, he asked why I didn’t have a restraining order and I told him that my previous lawyer told me it was 50/50 whether I would get it and that it would be inflammatory and work against me even though I felt very unsafe and threatened. Sean appeared very upset after hearing this, and disagreed, but continued to be professional and not bad mouth the other lawyer.
Sean was very brave about taking on my case this late in the game with a fast approaching court date and so much information to take in. Also, my ex hired a lawyer who I had heard said is the best divorce lawyer in La Crosse. I wholeheartedly disagree, because Sean definitely is the best.
I am still in awe of the commitment Sean made to helping me get a fair trial and a great outcome. I would see emails from him sent on weekends and in the middle of the nightat times. It was so reassuring to know he was on my side and so determined. He blocked out several days of his calendar so that he could familiarize himself with my huge stack of documents. As soon as I retained Sean as my attorney, I finally felt like I could relax and let him take care of it. I knew that no matter what happened with the results of the trial, I would be satisfied, because I had the best representation I could possibly have.
My hearing went on for two days. Sean was relentless in his effort to get me a fair trial and justice. In the end, the judge decided to divide the assets 80/20 in my favor. I did not get everything I wanted, but that never happens in court. It was about $70,000 that Sean saved me based on what my previous attorney was forecasting with a trial outcome.
In some ways, more importantly, Sean gave me the opportunity to tell my story and have it validated by the judge. He was so committed to making it clear that I tried so hard during the marriage and that my ex was dishonest and completely took advantage of me. It seemed that Sean felt a moral obligation to not let my ex take more from me and to have his greediness and dishonesty exposed.
I will also say that his staff was very friendly and hard-working. Sean went out of his way to try to save me money when he could by having me do some of the legwork if I wanted. He kept me consistently updated on status and promptly responded to all of my messages. Hopefully I will never need counsel again, but if I did, I would definitely retain Sean again. If it were possible to give him 10 stars, I would

He was unable to do what I asked. And everything that he did do the Court ordered prior. He changed nothing. I essentially spend $4500 for an attorney to do as little as possible, be disrespectful, and he thinks he did something. I thought I was paying for a service. Please thoroughly check prior to hiring and attorney. If I would have looked at public records ...I was not impressed.

I was referred by a friend who was given top notch representation by Attorney O'Neill and I've received nothing but the same so I'll just say if you need a reasonably priced, fair, and damn good attorney then look no further you have one in Attorney O'Neill!

Sean Oneill is a great attorney, in this case I used him for family law representation, we met for a consultation, he explained to me in detail all of what was to be expected during this unfortunate situation, as I am not familiar at all with anything to do with family court. Very professional, Great paralegals working with him. One of his assistants even watched my son for me outside the court room during a court date. I would absolutely recommend to friends and family, 5 ⭐️
