Compassionate

I hired Mrs Stefanou for custody and child support issues. She went up and beyond her duties. She was very informative and I felt she truly cared about my case. She was a good listener and compassionate, it was a pleasure to work with her.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • 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.
