Excellent lawyer, prompt in response time
Mr. Steenson is a very knowledgeable Attorney. He is fair with his prices and he is straight forward when explaining the legal system and possible outcomes. Since day 1 he prepared us for what is to come and continues to be available when needed.

Outstanding Attorney
There is not enough space on this review page to say all the good that I would like to say about this Attorney. He is absolutely outstanding. I contacted him through a referral from another attorney for what I believed to be a VOP for my son. I called him on a Saturday morning & received a return ...
"I endorse this lawyer because he's simply (1) a good guy, sincerely nice and great to talk to and (2) he enjoys his job and he's a true pro: he's prepared for court and has the skills to defend you if you're accused. I've represented co-defendants along side attorney Steenson and he was a great advocate to have along your side in criminal court. If you go with him as a client, you're in good hands."
"I have watched Derek go to the proverbial mat for his criminal clients the last two years. He simply could not work harder for them."
