Never refer again

I have worked in family law for over 25 years. When my cousin needed an attorney, I recommend Karen. I would NEVER recommend her again. She was a complete disappointment including her office and paralegal staff. Stay clear of her!

Ms. Steger is Amazing!

Ms. Steger is extremely intelligent and well informed in her area of law. She makes her clients feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident. She was very successful with my case which turned out to be much more complicated than either of us originally anticipated, but because of her expertise in all a...spects of family law, I know I couldn't have hired anyone who could have advocated better for my family and me. I have recommended her to friends and do not hesitate to recommend her as an attorney. She also is careful not to waste your money by doing or recommending unnecessary work, but if you feel the need to speak with her, her office personnel will work to accommodate you by fitting in a phone or one-to-one conference.

Would absolutely hire Karen Steger AGAIN!

In January, 2012, my divorce was finalized, with Karen Steger serving as my counsel. Karen listened to my needs and understood the urgency of them. She and her staff were not only professional, but supportive and helpful throughout the entire process, which lasted well over a year. It was an extremel...y stressful situation and Karen put my mind at ease from my first consultation with her. In April, 2014, I was faced with a modification to my original divorce and once again, Karen proved to be more than successful in her representation of me. I was scheduled to go to trial in August of 2015, and Karen arranged a settlement prior to that time. Even though she and her family were faced with a personal tragedy of their own, she was concerned with saving me unnecessary court costs and legal fees. Karen made my settlement a priority and her professionalism was unwavering. Should I ever need a family attorney again, I would, without hesitation, hire Karen Steger!

Exceeded Expectations

The measure of any lawyer should be results and outcome. In my case, I faced a mountain of lies, paperwork, misrepresentations, unsupported accusations, and an attempt to abduct my children to Europe, never to be seen again. Attorney Steger expertly navigated the legal landscape to persuade the jud...ge of my cause based on merit, facts, evidence, and the truth. The outcome was victory and my children were saved from abduction because of Ms. Steger's excellence in representing me. Please accept this unsolicited recommendation without hesitation or reservation for any prospective client needing legal representation in the field of family law. Ms. Steger saved my family. I now have my children to enjoy, and continue meaningful, significant, and fulfilling relationships for the rest of my life.
