Excellent attorney!

I retained Stephen for my divorce when my wife left. He is very smart and easy to understand. He is pleasant at all times and knows the laws. He helped me get "primary physical custody" of our 2 children and she was ordered to pay child support. He also helped to get my kids back when their mothe...r filed a protective order against me for alleged "family abuse", and took the kids for 2 weeks. I could have no contact. Stephen represented me and was able to help prove the allegations to be false and I got the kids back. I would highly recommend Stephen!

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.
