      Review Stephen Rogers

      Good attorney

      Posted by

      I have used his services multiple times. Sometimes he can be terse and has a busy schedule, but he has provided services always as agreed upon and with successful outcome, and for less money than other lawyers have quoted.

      Only A Lawyer Knows Who Is A Good Lawyer

      Posted by

      I have had the good fortune of working with Steve on a number of cases going back almost 30 years. He has been co-counsel with me in Florida and elsewhere. I am fortunate that my clients can afford to hire high caliber attorneys and they defer to me in choosing co-counsel, where necessary. Unhesitatingly, Steve is the hardest working, most innovative, and one of the best lawyers I have had the privilege of working with in all of my 45 years of trial practice.

      Working with Steve Rogers

      Posted by

      Steve Rogers is a phenomenal attorney. I have known Steve personally for over a decade and never once thought I would need his professional services. However on one of the darkest days of my life I found myself in need of his help as a lawyer. I really never considered calling anyone else and Steve was there for me every step of the way. It would be my hope that no one ever need an attorney but if you do, Steve Rogers is your man.

      Attorney Stephen J Rogers; Integrity and Diligence

      Posted by

      I have known Mr. Rogers in a legal capacity for some time. At one point, his professional assistance not only was needed but the peace of mind in being guided by someone who understood the ramifications better than I could just cannot be overstated. On at least two occasions, my first thought was to call him. That always proved to be my best choice. He knows the law and how it can affect you better than anyone I know. I not only WOULD recommend him, I HAVE several times. You can't chose better.

      Recmmendation for Steve Rogers

      I have utilized the services of Stephen J. Rogers on several occasions over a period of 15 years related to family law, child custody and support.

      Excellent Counsel Recceived from Stephen J Rogers

      Posted by

      Mr. Rogers represented me during my protracted martial dissolution matter. Throughout the entire process he clearly outlined the procedures, filings and settlement sessions required under the law. He provided straight forward guidance as the case proceeded from discovery to resolution. Even as the opposing side became increasingly hostile and began employing an array of legal tactics, including five changes in opposing counsel, Mr. Rogers was steady, clear and candid in his responses and pursued the best course of action to take. In the face of my ex-spouse and her array of attorneys, intentionally escalating the financial costs of the proceeding, I felt Mr. Rogers billed fairly and worked hard to keep my costs reasonable. Throughout multiple settlement and arbitration attempts, and an eventual emotionally charged three day trial, Mr. Rogers was composed, made clear arguments and represented my case concisely to the Court. I highly recommend Mr. Rogers to anyone looking for a no nonsense attorney with great experience who takes the time to understand your case.

      Experienced, Knowledgeable Legal Representation

      Posted by

      I hired Stephen Rogers to assist me with my divorce in 2013 and again in 2014 for a separate legal matter. I found Mr. Rogers to be very knowledgeable of the law and thorough in his representation of me. In both stressful situations I faced, Mr. Rogers reassured me and protected my best interests. I trust the expertise of Stephen Rogers and highly recommend his legal representation.

      very professional and reasonable

      Posted by

      Mr Rogers did a very good job in my case everything that he promised he fulfilled. Very good courtroom conduct and very knowledgeable. the fees were very reasonable and he even let me make payments

      Bad Experience

      Posted by

      This lawyer failed to communicate. My emails and questions were left unanswered. I scheduled a phone call and he never called me! I spent all of my savings but it still wasn't enough for him to finalize my case. He did not achieve the successful outcome that was discussed on our initial consultation. I was forced to hire a different attorney in the middle of the process. What a disappointment.

      For any divorce or post dissolution matter in Martin or St. Lucie County, Steve Rogers should be your first call. Steve's office prides itself on being available for their clients, and then, doing what's necessary to get the job done. Every client ever referred to his office has called to thank us. He is well respected by his peers and the judges, and it is no wonder why he was one of six considered by the Governor's office for a circuit court judgeship.
