Great Service

Steve and his staff were knowledgeable and extremely easy to work with. They kept us informed and helped us navigate smoothly through a rough spot in our life. I would recommend Steve and his team to anyone requiring a defense law firm.

Great job

The whole team was friendly and helpful. Steve was very thorough in explaining things and efficient in getting them done. I like the communication by text and email which was convenient. Overall, they made an overwhelming experience MUCH easier to handle

Get the Lawyer the truly has your back!

If you need a defense attorney I would go with Steve Rice. I just got out of court today. The results were the lowest possible sentence considering the situation. When you don’t trust your own judgment and need someone in your corner, he’s the guy. Definitely money well spent. I couldn’t have done t...his myself. Thank you Steve!

Would hire again (but I hope not to...)

Mr. Rice listened to and addressed my concerns and got me the deal I wanted.

Outstanding service

Steve and his team went above and beyond on my case. Steve worked hard on my case to prove my innocence. He cares about his clients and not just about money. Steve is very ethical and respects his clients wishes and does everything he can to help them. I am extremely happy with my choice to use this ...law firm. I would recommend Steve and his firm to anyone looking for a criminal defense attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
