About Steven
Biography
I work hard for my clients, but I also spend time with my family. I have two toddler boys and a beautiful wife. I attend church regularly and I'm a believer in Christ. These are the reasons I do what I do.
I defend those that can't help themselves and those charged with heinous crimes with passion because that's what God has given me the ability to do. And I fight for the rights of parents during a divorce because I know what's a stake in these matters.
I am an avid Alabama Crimson Tide Fan which is really the only hobby I have time to enjoy. The University of Alabama will always have a special place in my heart because that's where I met my wife, a beautiful sorority girl I fell in love with the moment I saw her. We started beautiful family together and Alabama helped make that happen. Roll Tide!

I hired Mr. Eversole years ago to represent me in my divorce. He took my money and performed no services at all. Would not give a refund or answer calls. I learned that recently that his license has been suspended and this makes me so happy! I never received my money back from Mr. Eversole but I knew...

Lackadaisical... at best
It took him 3 weeks to meet directly with his client. Refused to personally inform his client of court continuance and pending charges. Attempted to ask for MORE money after nearly a month of MINIMAL work on the case. He was great at RETURNING calls, which is the only reason I rated him 2 stars inst...

Replied last July 14, 2017I am sorry you were disappointed with our services. However, it's very difficult to comment on anonymous complaints or reviews because I am not sure who or what this is about. If you are who I think you are, your brother was continually kept updated on his case. His case was in Grand Jury, not much going on during the Grand Jury Process. Also, we had to travel out of t own to court on your brother's case three times, met with him in jail, and filed numerous motions for a very nominal fee because I wanted to help him. Once the case goes to Grand Jury, it starts the Circuit Court Process which is the trial by jury stage. Obviously that was going to cost more money. And if I remember correctly, you and your parents wanted to keep me on the case but could not afford my services in the Circuit Court jury process. I also waived thousands of dollars off your bill for the District Court Process. Again, I am sorry you were not happy with our services. If you'd like to contact me offline I'd be happy to discuss the situation further and try to remedy any dissatisfaction you may have. But I do dispute your rendition of events and I worked very hard for your brother, lots of time was spent on the case as well, as you saw on the meticulous invoice that was provided. I hope your brother is doing well. God Bless.

I am delighted with the result of my case
Steven is a great listener, works incredibly hard, and brings an energy that is hard to match. He treated me with the utmost respect and answered all of my questions. His flat fee is also fair based on the other estimates I received. He was very detailed and took his time to make sure I understood ev...
