About Steve
Biography
I was born in Argentina, and was brough to the US as a child. My family came from Hungary, Italy, Spain, Cuba and Argentina. I went through the immigration process and felt what it was like to not belong. I also learned that this country offered lmitless possibilities, as long as you were willing to work very hard for them. This is what got me where I am, through Stuyvesant High School, UNC Chapel Hill and Georgetown Law, and what propeled me to launch my own law firm in 2004.
My goal is to help good people realize their unique versions of the American Dream, just as I have been able to do.

Unresponsive, lack of communication and professionalism
I paid for one hour consultation and he left in the middle of the meeting, giving a poor advise regarding a straight forward case. Serious lack of professional communication, did not address our concerns and barely answered our questions.
