About Stephen
Biography
I have been an attorney for 32 years, 29 of them with Faraci Lange, LLP. I have been managing partner of the firm for the past 20 years. My practice consists of civil trials of various types, mostly complex and serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, but also including buisness and environmental and mass tort cases. I have been selected to the American College of Trial Lawyers and the American Board of Trial Advocacy, two invitation-only organizations. I have also received Martindale Hubbell's highest rating, AV.
