Former client

Steve Echsner is one of the very few lawyers I have ever dealt with who not only represented me because he cared but was always accessible, his Legal Assistant is extremely knowledgeable and as professional as he is, but he also never focused on the money rather he focused on the law and applicabilit...y to my situation. This resulted in an extraordinary outcome. He is a man of integrity, intelligence and extremely good at what he does. I would recommend this man to anyone for any legal issue and if he cannot help you, he won't stop until he gets someone to help you - it seems he treats the case, no matter how large or small, as if it were himself as the client - this is rare in the legal world and I admire and respect him for his professionalism.

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.
