Caring and understanding

During the time of loss due to injury caused by the negligence of others--the process of finding the best advocate can be an overwhelming and daunting task for those seeking justice for their loved one. With tragedy, this task seems almost unfair that one would have to go through this on top of ever...ything else. I thank God that friends of mine who are also lawyers pointed me to the Maher Law Firm for help. Honest, Integrity, thoroughness, professionalism, expert, care and understanding are just a few of the adjectives to describe Steve and his team. They will get at the truth and deliver victory in holding those responsible to the consequences of their actions. For me, there is none better than Steve Maher. I highly recommend him.

President/CEO 800 Adept, Inc,. and President/CEO of Adpetel, Inc.

I have known Steve Maher for 4 years. He represented my company in a very difficult Intellectual Property case in the Federal District Court - Orlando Division. Steve prepared vigorously for all eventualities. The Jury Trial lasted 6 weeks, he was excellent in Direct examination as well as Cross exam...ination. Steve delivered a brilliant closing argument that resulted in a Jury Award of $25,000,000.00 Steve a is a very articulate, personable individual who makes every effort to understand the case and find brilliant answers. Steve has also represented my company in general corporate issues. I would recommend Steve in the strongest possible terms for anyone who wants a winning lawyer on their side on any legal issues. He is tireless when it comes to representing a client. Juan F. Sierra

Absolutely the Finest Attorney in Every Respect

Steve Maher is compassionate and caring. He is a winner in every sense of the word. He is like a pit bull when fighting and will not give up or rest until justice is served. If given the choice, there is not another person I would want advocating for me or my family. Any defense tactics or attemp...ts to not take responsibility for a wrong doing will be met with integrity and power probably not bargained for. Steve has the most incredible team and resources and ability. You can count on him to use the latest in technology and every tool available and every tactic to fight for you.

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.
