I hired Stein and Ward LLC to be my DUI attorney. Steven Ward was the one who argued my case and I couldn't be more pleased. I never had to be present they handled everything on my behalf which is great since I am from out of state. I hired them because I was told they were the best DUI lawyers in...

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Ward tried several cases (non-jury) before me in Roswell over the years. I found him to be Honest, Ethical, Skilled, Prepared, and a very effective advocate for his clients. I would be very comfortable with him as my own lead counsel in the defense of a DUI case."
"I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer. I have know him for many years. He is an outstanding lawyer who not only knows his way around a courtroom but takes care of his clients as well. You can't go wrong hiring this man."

"Steven is one of the most pleasant and professional attorneys I have had the pleasure of working with. He is an extremely knowledgeable and dedicated advocate for his clients. I highly recommend him."
"I cannot speak highly enough of Steven. He is an exceptional person and an even better lawyer. Steven is extremely well-respected by Judges and Prosecutors. As a result, he's able to negotiate deals that many other lawyers just cannot. However, when he is not able to negotiate a deal that is acceptable to you, there is not a lawyer that you will find who is more willing and capable of trying a DUI to a jury. I'd hire Steven in a heartbeat if I were charged with a DUI."
