Best Divorce Lawyer Around

Steve is an absolute savior and a pro at what he does. Feeling like we were stuck and had no where to go with a very messy divorce, Steve comforted us throughout the process and made sure we were heard every step of the way. Steve is kind, responsive, and makes you feel like you are his number one pr...iority. He doesn’t beat around the bush and tells you like it is. He will give you his opinion, if wanted, but will always explain all legal matters to you in a way that you understand to make sure that you are happy and satisfied with your decision. Honestly, we thank Steve every day that he took us on as clients and that he did what he did for us. If anyone is getting divorced, I recommend Steve first and with the highest regard.

Right choice for bankruptcy lawyer

I waited a long time to finally start the bankruptcy process because I was worried about the process. To be honest Steven and his amazing team made the process completely simple and easy. They handled everything for me and made sure I had everything I needed and was fully prepared for the process. I ...am so thankful I chose Steven as my lawyer to assist me with my bankruptcy. I can finally begin building my credit again thanks to there help.

Steve is as good as they get

Steve helped me with some very complicated legal matters that had been accumulating for several years. He knows what he's doing and understands the ins and ohts of the legal process. He's very fair with pricing and does not waste time and bill like some attorneys I've worked with in the past. Steve i...s also a stand-up guy. No games. Thank you, Sfeve!

Steven is a very informative, very responsive, and very empathetic with his clients.Before going into any hearings, he made sure I knew as much as I possibly could. He answered every question with detailed responses and he truly knows what he is doing. He’s been in this profession for a long time and... he doesn’t let you go into that court room unconfident. He took my very complex case and gave my family peace in such a short amount of time. Highly recommended!!

Saved my life

I am writing this because I was once in your shoes. Researching a lawyer that made me feel like I could breathe again. Reading reviews and thinking “okay is this individual the right one.” Mr. Sico who I now call Steve was referred to me by another attorney who advised me “your case is above m...y head.” I called Steve and immediately felt relief. I remember saying this is the one. Steve picked up on things that no other attorney found, he asked questions and provided paths that no one else recommended. I was in a dark place, my world was completely upside down. Unbeknownst to me, I was involved in a “flip home” with con-artists who purposely left me holding the bag. When Steve found out how low I was in my life, he immediately protected me. I cried in his office the first time I met him in person, I was completely broken. He told to “enjoy the weekend and don’t even think about this situation.” I was in shock because for months this was all I thought about. Let me tell you, I enjoyed my weekend for the first time. Steve and Connie both checked in on me regularly, not as client, as a friend. He truly cares about his clients and he fights for them. He would contact me with information and I would listen to him, trusting his guidance. I remember one proposed deal and I wasn’t completely happy but I said to myself “okay, we have to do this.” Steve knew I wasn’t completely happy. And I now know Steve wasn’t happy with it either. Steve never expressed this to me, he just fought. A few weeks later he called me and told me the new deal, the one we originally wanted. I wanted to hug him through the phone (even in a covid pandemic). All he said to me was “Valerie, enjoy your weekend.” Heck my weekend, MY LIFE. I was originally going to wait to write this review until the case was done. Although I know I don’t need to because he will fight for the outcome I deserve. I trust him that much. In closing I want to express if you are reading this and you are also in that dark place, CALL STEVE. I’ve been there, scared and innocent, with no direction because nothing prepped me for the evil in this world. I hope this review reaches you because this truly is the review I needed to see a year ago. I can’t thank Steve enough, he saved my life. I also can’t leave out Connie, because that sweet soul would check on me too!
