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!

Review
I hired Eversole Law to defend me in a criminal case. They never created a proper defense for me and tricked me into pleading guilty in order to get a trial by jury. They then abandoned my case on the trial level because I refused to pay additional fees for a trial which were not agreed upon. I ma...

Replied last July 14, 2017We are sorry you were unhappy with your results. Please feel free to call Mr. Eversole at the office to discuss. Clearly based upon your review Mr. Eversole did not represent you in this matter. At one time we had numerous lawyers working at the firm, and neither of the lawyers you mention are employed by the Firm. However, your review has some logical inconsistencies. You say we would not represent you in Circuit Court after you appealed a Municipal Court case but then you say Mr. Fancher represented you in Circuit Court. That makes no sense. Also, when you stipulate from Municipal Court to Circuit Court you technically plead guilty but the trial in Circuit Court is de novo, meaning that plea means nothing unless you lose at Circuit Court which apparently you did. Again, I sorry you were not satisfied with the Firm's representation, not many people are when they lose criminal cases that involve punishment. However, we are always available to discuss with anyone their dissatisfaction in hopes of making things right. Mr. Eversole no longer has other attorney employees and would be happy to speak with you. We did make a switch and eliminate numerous lawyer employees because Mr. Eversole wanted to be able to intentionally lower the number of clients the firm represents in order to give the best representation possible, and Mr. Eversole now represents every client himself. Please call the office if you wish to discuss further and we will do anything we can to help rectify the situation.

Dedicated to client's rights!!!!!
I don't even know where to start. Eversole Law should have been the first firm I hired in Alabama and not the last. I needed Steve to help with an appeal from the Family Court to the Court of Civil Appeals and despite the horrible decision from the Court's. (on every level in my case) Ashley, Steve...
