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!

Smart. Reliable. Down to earth

From the very beginning of my process Steve made me feel very at ease. He was on the ball with everything he needed to be. Whatever needed to get done. GOT DONE. He is very good at making you feel comfortable and trust me when I say that you are in great hands if you have Steve backing you. He is ext...remely personable and will make you feel super at ease with any concerns or questions you have. My advice. Hire Steve!

Great attorney, Great office staff

Steven Sico helped my family during a trying time. Mr. Sico and his staff were always available for our questions, took their time with us and always got back to us immediately. Mr. Sico laid out legally what would happen and it happened just the way he prepared us for. I highly recommend Mr. Sico... and his staff.

Excellent Laywer

Steven is awesome He has helped me with two cases of harassment which was very difficult to deal with. He is very professional, very caring and patient and his secretary Connie is terrific. I highly recommend him.

Divorce

Hi my name is Laura I had a divorce that went horribly wrong. Other lawyers didn’t want to take the case cause they said it was a mess. I found Steve on the internet. When I met with him he looked over the papers and said “I like a challenge” you cant begin to imagine how happy I was. Steve is kin...d and has a lot of patience and knows what he is doing. Steve tells it like it is. He won’t promise something he can’t do. Very upfront and always returns calls and emails. He knows the law ,he is great at what he does. His assistant Connie is wonderful person as well. They make an excellent team. I highly recommend Steve as a lawyer Thanks again for everything Sincerely your client forever Laura

"I Have had the pleasure over the last few years of knowing this attorney. Mr. Sico goes above and beyond for his clients more than any other attorney I have ever seen. Mr. Sico does not treat his clients as file numbers, but rather as friends. In addition, the knowledge and skill I have observed him displaying in the areas of bankruptcy, real estate and family law are second to none. It is my pleasure and honor to make this endorsement of Mr. Sico."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
