Stephanie Leigh Steele

Our experience with this firm was disappointing and frustrating. What should have been a relatively simple estate with very few assets ended up costing nearly $20,000 to close out. Highway robbery for the service they provide. In addition to being expensive, they moved very slowly. The only thing ...handled quickly was the constant demands to replenish our retainer. So if there is one thing they're great at, it is billing. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this firm to anyone to handle any legal matter. In hindsight, I should have never hired them. By the time I realized what a pain they were to work with, we were in too deep to fire them. Learn from my mistake and find another firm.

WARNING - DO NOT HIRE THIS LAW FIRM This law firm was hired to handle my Son’s Estate. It was a terrible experience because the law firm does not file paperwork on time. My son passed away in February - and the law firm forgot to file for the initial Letter of Testamentary, which delayed the e...ntire case. When I called Steele Law Firm in April, and asked why no movement was happening on the case, they blamed it on the court system. So I called down to the Cobb County Probate System, and they had no record of this lawyer even starting the case. The case was finally started in mid April - which was 2 and a half months after my son died. Failure to file paperwork caused major and costly delays for the estate. And the problems continued to escalate with further delays, no knowledge of my son’s case, and lies from this law firm constantly blaming the probate court system. (The problems are not with the court system - the problems are due to this law firm’s failure to file paperwork and failure to keep the court updated.) Stephanie Steele was fired from the case, and the case was turned over to another law firm - that has handled the case properly, smoothly, and timely ever since. WARNING - DO NOT HIRE THIS LAW FIRM

Worst experience ever with a law firm. My case was simply submitting an uncontested Will with one sole beneficiary – and Steele Law Firm made a mess of my case. Steele Law Firm failed to file necessary paperwork on time with the court system and failed to submit court cost fees – causing the court... to stop my case. Administrative staff was unorganized and incompetent. Anytime I called or emailed – staff was clueless as to what stage my case was in. I also received emails - instructing me to complete steps that had already been completed in the past. I even received a phone call - halfway thru my case – asking if I would like to “Become a Client of Steele Law Firm.” This law firm still did not know I was already client of theirs – even halfway thru my case. I finally had to release Steele Law Firm – and hire another attorney to finish up the case – resulting in thousands of dollars lost, stress, and time lost. Bottom line is – do not use Steele Law firm. I do not wish this horrible experience upon anyone, especially after just losing a loved one.

Stephanie is a class act. She is very soft spoken, very supportive and very consciencious. She doesnt talk much but she gets the job done. I remember when I first filed for divorce I was having a melt down Stephanie quickly called me on the phone to calm me down stating: You need to let my worry ab...out the divorce for you. Isn't that why you hired me? I thank God for guiding me to her direction. I am very satisfied with the outcome of my divorce. I will highly recommand Stephanie to anyone who is looking for an honest, fair and dependable family/divorc lawyer.
