Representative Cases

  • COMMONWEALTH V. MH, When police claimed our client had caused a fatal head-on collision while under the influence, he was charged with DUI and Murder, facing life in prison. Despite having fled an accident scene littered with opened alcohol containers, Sean secured the client’s pretrial release while he challenged the government’s evidence and enlisted the help of a renowned accident reconstructionist. On the eve of trial, we were able to negotiate probation on reduced charges avoiding all prison time.
  • COMMONWEALTH V. EP, Our client’s nightmare had only just begun when his 4-week-old son stopped breathing in his arms. Doctors found bleeding on the baby’s brain and fractures in multiple parts of his body. After the region’s preeminent forensic pediatrician issued a devastating report that the injuries were intentionally inflicted by our client, he was charged and faced 10 years in prison. By meticulously investigating the child’s whereabouts for every day of his young life, and raising substantial medical questions about whether the injuries were caused by a stroke in the womb, Sean was able to negotiate a resolution which would have eventually dismissed the charges. But our client persisted in his innocence and rejected the offer. After a taxing week-long trial, our client was exonerated and reunited with his son after nearly 2 years.
  • CW V. JBT, It was a tragedy caught on tape at a bar, as our client raised a 45 caliber pistol to a man’s chest and shot him at close range. The two were friends, and while the man lived, he will likely never walk again. Refusing to believe our client never meant to pull the trigger, the government charged him with Attempted Murder and Assault. After a years-long legal battle, the case culminated in a trial that amounted to a legal dissertation on the concept of intent. When the jury announced that it had ac (Jefferson Circuit Court 2022)
  • COMMONWEALTH V. A.D, In a recent case, our client was pulled over on suspicion of DUI. Although she admitted to drinking, had an open bottle of wine in the car, and “failed” the field sobriety tests (according to officer), she gave us enough to work with by refusing the breath test. With his client’s nursing license on the line, Sean tried the case. The jury deliberated just 10 minutes before returning a verdict of Not Guilty.
  • COMMONWEALTH V. R.B., Absolutely nobody (not even us at first) believed our client, with a long history of drug trafficking, possessed a substantial quantity of narcotics for mere personal use. But after a year of litigation, many “spirited” confrontations with prosecutor and judge alike, and some teaching about the value, quantity, and business of this particular drug, Sean helped his client avoid a 20-year sentence. We are thrilled in knowing that our client successfully completed probation and is now 5 years clean and sober.

Sean Pharr really expelled my preconceived notions on lawyers. My case was complicated and in a small town in Kentucky I had never even been to. The district attorney was very hard to track down but Sean stuck it out with me. He didn?t give up, he always stayed honest and gave it to me straight which I valued most. He didn?t try to tell me what I wanted to hear and he went out of his way to ensure that I would get the answers I needed. After a year of battling over a case that was almost 7 years old, Sean got my case dismissed without me ever having to come to Kentucky or appear in court. I would highly recommend Sean, he wont steer you wrong.

I got myself into an unfortunate situation, and was new to the Louisville area. I turned to the internet to research "the best" criminal lawyers. The previously posted reviews encouraged me to contact Sean Pharr?s group, and I am happy that I did so. Someone contacted me almost immediately after I submitted my information, and helped to put me at ease. Sean was great to work with, easy to talk to, and was extremely reassuring and understanding in this stressful situation. I am very pleased with the outcome I received, and cannot recommend Sean Pharr enough!!

Sean just helped me resolve a very complex divorce case involving fraud from the other side. The case has been dragging out since 2015 and I had four different attorneys representing me at different point of times. What I really liked about Sean is his forward thinking ability which gave his client the comfort that he is managing the ultimate outcome of the case instead of reacting to the other side. Additionally, Sean has been very responsive to my questions and he offers very thoughtful and thorough advices.

I was represented better than I could have ever imagined. My needs were put first. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Mr Pharr fought hard for me. He went above and beyond and did everything they could to ensure a good outcome. I couldn't have asked for better. I can't say enough good things. Honest, reliable, professional, and get the job done.

I hired Sean as my lawyer in a case in Louisville regarding my dui, he was very thorough throughout the whole process and helped in every way possible, from answering questions to getting me into the program that I?m currently in. He makes sure that everything is explained in depth and that you understand to the full extent. 10/10 recommend Sean, and will continue to have him as my lawyer moving forward.

Pharr Law Group was the greatest choice of representation I could have gone with. Sean and his paralegal, Laura were professional and got the job done. I cannot speak highly enough of Laura as she was able to help me from start to finish. I was in need of help with a child support/child custody case and was very nervous and scared going into it. From the start they were very reassuring and very upfront and honest about the process. They were able to answer any questions and concerns as they came up and were always responsive and quick to get back with me. When it came down to what mattered the most, court, everything went according to plan. They really knocked it out of the ballpark! Once again, all expectation of court and how the process would be were well explained to me which in the end eased my nerves. With all that being said, I was awarded 50/50 custody with my children. This was one of the greatest feelings I have ever had! So, if you want a lawyer that will get the job done and a law group that will help you out throughout the process, do yourself a favor and call Sean Pharr. I know if ever needed again I will reach out to them. I can never thank you all enough! Thank You!

Meeting Sean Pharr was a blessing I?m a single mom on felony probation and i was looking at my 3rd revocation hiring but, without meeting me or talking to me our first court date he knew more about my case than I did and Well by the next court date I had a new violation and could be serving my 15 years over being lazy and dumb smh not to mention skipped the po and well just messing up all together and I?ve been in the courts over 9 years and I?ve had to use plenty of lawyers for him to be able to look at give me a step by step understanding on what it is I need to do and what it is he is going to do meant so much for me and my family. Sean by far was the only one I?ve had that I didn?t need my papers with me or explain my whole life story to but he was straight to the point and 100 successful so if your needing someone to represent you call this guy.

To be frank I found myself in a terrible situation because of my own bad decisions while struggling with addiction to opiates. When I contacted Mr. Pharr I was facing 40 plus years in prison and had basically gave up on myself and any hope. Through Sean?s expectational work as a criminal law attorney I was able to be offered a favorable conclusion to my case while still being able to make an amends for my past wrong doings. Today, because of Sean?s work and dedication I am over 1 year clean and sober from all mind and mood altering substances. I am employable again and work full time. This man helped me to see that where there is breath there is hope and has offered me a miracle and a new lease on a life I can be proud of.

"Thank you so much to The Pharr Law Group who so graciously and was so willing to help me with my ticket and charged me a VERY REASONABLE price compared to other places and got to work right away. Literally, the next day, his office emailed me. Pharr Law Group I couldn't believe it. So, now after just 1 month, Sean goes to court FULLY DISMISSED after I complete my Traffic School. This was a speeding 95+mph. Since then, I went to the DMV and am driving again with a clean slate and 0 points on my record. Sean Pharr and his team at Pharr Law Group are AMAZING. DEFINITELY WORTH EVERY PENNY. THANK YOU, SEAN! I am forever in your debt and will never forget! You came through as promised. You will be recommended by me forever!!! Great job!!!"

Sean was highly recommended by a close friend. Not only did he meet those expectations but also exceeded them. He was very professional, answered every phone call and text message no matter what time of the day or night it was. He attended every meeting and court date on time.He made my case feel like a priority and not a burden. I told him what I was looking for at the beginning and he got it done for me. His wealth of knowledge on different aspects of law was impressive and he is truly appreciated for his work.

I was accused of FELONY child abuse and assault, incarecerated for twenty two months.there was an extensive investigation which took course over those many months.finally Sean Pharr flew in expert to testify on what he had found through said investigation. On said trial the expert proved other causes of brain injury (perinatal stroke) during a jury trial. The jury selection showed odds stacked against me involving allegations against a baby, he continued to try to explain to me that he was a good trial lawyer. Well as i waited for the verdict i had my doughts until i stepped back in the court room and recieved a not guilty on all counts... All thanks to the wonderful and amazing Sean Pharr. I Will never be able to thank him enough for what he has truly done for me and my family.

I met Sean through a mutal friend when I was going through a hard time with my current lawyer . Within minutes of sitting with him and his team he had my entire confidence. I had been fighting this case for almost two years at the time while looking at a very lengthy sentence but Sean was confident that we get a better outcome. He was very communicative with me and responded in a timely manner, which means everything when you have high anxiety like me . He went to bat for me, brought my case some hope and walked in the courtroom like he owned the place. My case was a lose/lose but he still got more done in a month than my previous team had. I was okay with the outcome , but he wasn't so he went to bat for me again and fought to get the truth of the matter out in the open and got me free. I'm glad to put it behind me and gain a friend in the process . He checks on me to see if my life is still going in the right direction and has built a bond with my friends that showed up in support of me, which means everything. If you need a lawyer to be direct and passionate along with getting the best results , go with Sean.

During the course of the court dates we learned that my son also had charges in Campbell County. Sean agreed to take on this case, with similar charges and began working toward a resolution. This case has been difficult and frustrating for all of us due to the slowness of responses from the County Attorneys office. Sean worked diligently making phone calls, sending emails, making personal visits to the prosecutor and even the judge?s secretary to get his case in front of the judge. It was very obvious to me that this case would have taken a much longer time to resolve had it not been for Sean?s persistence. While the resolution of this case was a little less positive than the other case (because of county practices) Sean was still able to work toward a plea deal that avoids prison time for my son. He has contacted my son at times to find out how he was doing and to get updates on cases from other counties that my son was facing. He has been very conscientious and hard working on this and both my son and I have very much appreciated his help through a difficult time.

Sean Pharr handled my complex case masterfully! With multiple felonious charges and a lengthy criminal history, I was certain I was headed to prison. With Sean's expertise, knowledge, and dedication I was able to put all this behind me and get my life back. I cannot say enough good things about this attorney! Although he had to travel several hours to get to me, he was always there. He returned phone calls promptly and always took the time to answer any questions I ever had. I would most definitely recommend his services to anyone looking for a caring, competent attorney!!!

Mr. Pharr is by far the best attorney I ever had the chance of having. My criminal history goes back at least fifteen years. I?ve been in a lot of trouble I thought for sure this time I was on my way to prison. I violated my probation over four times and they should have revoked my suspended sentence, but with his help and dedication to my case he got it extended two years. I would recommend him to anyone. He is very professional, friendly and extremely dedicated to his clients. If you need a great attorney Mr. Sean Pharr is the way to go!!!!!

Very positive experience with Sean. Being at the wrong place at the wrong time got me into some legal trouble and needed good legal representation to help in any way possible. Charges were Kidnapping-Adult, Robbery 1st. Pharr Law Group came to my aid and managed to get me on then off HIP, keep me out of jail, reduce my charges to Unlawful Imprisonment & Criminal Mischief with unsupervised probation for 5 years instead of 20 years in prison, and even helped with a small traffic violation after the case was over. Not to mention his continued generosity with legal advice regarding to probation and its conditions. So, I believe it?s safe to say you?re saved with Sear Pharr at Pharr Law Group! Highly recommend!

This has been my first Time to ever retain Sean for legal services, and I had to do so while incarcerated on an HIP return/violation? I was in desperate need of a good legal counsel and I was given his number by a friend? He quoted A very reasonable price for the court dates I had coming up and to also put in a motion to get me out of jail, which of course, was my main goal at the time? And Within 2 to 3 days I was released from jail back on home incarceration waiting for a revocation hearing. I didn?t feel good about My upcoming hearing at all? However, Sean and the attorneys In the firm that I spoke to completely put my mind at ease and took a lot of worry off my shoulders... Which was a big deal to me and my family, when you are constantly worried about your freedom it puts so much stress on everyone? It made me feel better to have an attorney that cares and was doing everything he could to get me The best outcome possible.. Court was this morning, and it literally couldn?t have went better! I am super grateful he has been able to get me an even better outcome than I imagined! I am completely off of HIP now and he got my diversion reinstated, so I didn?t get revoked at all? Also in my district case I had a motion to revoke in, on 365 days for a old shoplifting charge, because I caught a possession and paraphernalia charge which is what the revocation hearing in my circuit court was about also? I don?t know how he did it, but he got that motion to revoke pulled, and my 365 days are gone also! Needless to say, he helped give me peace of mind and get my freedom back as well? That is priceless? I would definitely recommend him to friends or family!

You will struggle to find a better individual and company to represent you than Sean Pharr Law Group. In my time of need regarding my child custody case Sean and his team assisted me in getting equal time with my child. For someone who was new to anything legal binding, Sean and his team made it very clear to me how everything was going to play out and it made me feel better that I understood what every decision and paperwork meant when filling it out. At the end of the day Sean and his team gave me everything I could have asked for, they fought for me day in and day out, and they made it clear that they cared about my case which gave me reassurance that I had a lawyer that truly cared. I recommend Pharr Law group 100%.

I reached out to the Pharr Law firm to help assist in a drug paraphernalia charge that occured while driving through Christian County in Kentucky. Being that I reside in Chicago they helped arrange all court appearances to be handled via zoom. Sean also notified me of a fast one the courts were trying to do by having me stand trial immediately rather than following the legal steps. Sean corrected this, and handled my case in a superb fashion. He asked what i wanted to achieve with the outcome and he delivered within reason.

Additionally, Sean has been very responsive to my questions and he offers very thoughtful and thorough advices. Review for Laura Lane, Sean's paralegal. I cannot say enough good things about Laura. I was never as comfortable and confident about my case until the day I started working with Laura. She is extremely smart and knowledgeable, and she communicates in a way that put your mind at ease. This is what I really needed after the case has gone the wrong way for a few years. With Laura's help we were finally on the offense side and started make progress towards the eventual settlement. When Laura left her old firm I made the decision to "follow" her. Laura is not the typical paralegal you will experience. Her extensive legal experience and dedication to the case has been a game changer for me.
