Efficient, empathetic, successful

Stephanie guided me through my divorce with a level of empathy, effectiveness and clarity that made this ordeal manageable. She was clear, direct and thoughtful in every response and interaction. She ensured we focused on the right thing at the right time, which minimized anxiety and confusion, des...pite the challenges of my situation. I would recommend her to anyone.

Very satisfied client!

I am extremely happy with the legal services Stephanie and her firm provided to me as I was going through a divorce. From initial consultation, through to representation and successful resolution of my matter, Stephanie and her staff provided outstanding legal guidance, support, and encouragemen...t. Stephanie was always aware of the “person” she was helping, not just seeing them as a “client”- adding a personal element to her work that was both refreshing and greatly appreciated. She and her staff handled my matters timely, expertly, and always kept me fully informed of what was happening with my case. Stephanie was also readily available for any questions, responding personally and promptly by email or phone on several occasions. The firm’s fees were, in my opinion, reasonable and were always clearly explained. I highly recommend retaining / hiring Stephanie and her firm if you have legal issues they can assist you with.

Impressive Advocacy Skills!

From the first time I met Stephanie, I felt very comfortable discussing my post-divorce issues with her. Her professionalism, knowledge, & execution of the law is remarkable. I could not have asked for a better lawyer, Stephanie was incredibly easy to work with and showed great patience with me d...uring my added health issues to the emotional one and Covid locked-down. She guided me through every step of the way via emails, texts and phone calls. If you are looking for good legal advise or someone who will fight for you, I highly recommend Stephanie Palo. P.S. she still follows up on my health.

Exceeded Expectations!

From beginning to end, Stephanie guided me through the entire divorce process. Her patience, understanding and compassion greatly reduced my anxiety and stress levels. Her knowledge and professionalism exceeded all my expectations and made me feel comfortable through some very trying times. I wo...uld highly recommend Stephanie to anyone seeking out council going through divorce.

Very satisfied client

Through my extremely, difficult and costly divorce, at first I hired a good fiend of mine who I always trusted him. Unfortunately he over charged me, dragged the case, and simply made it more complicated. After interviewing few lawyers I end up with Stephanie. The case took over two years, and the fi...ght was really challenging with my ex spouse who had unlimited financial support to drag the case and made so hard for me. Through the two years working with Stephanie, she did every thing possible for the best out come, and results. I’m very thankful to have Stephanie as y council. She is honest, fare, knowledgeable, sharp, accurate, and professional. Stephanie was always on time during all court appearance, answers all phone call and e mails within hours, accurate billing with no unnecessary charges, honest, and fare. I strongly recommend Mrs. Palo.

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.
