Commercial real estate lawyer | Mar 10

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

Mark Barnes

Litigation lawyer | Aug 09

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Steve recently helped a client of mine navigate sensitive issues arising in a "corporate divorce" (one founder and investor in a promising development stage company feuding with the CEO and other founder of this company) inside an Ohio company. He was responsive and practical in his advice and guidance and the matter was resolved without litigation. I endorse Steve's counseling skills in pre-litigation planning matters."

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.
