Susan Marie Stephanoff

I highly recommend Susan Stephanoff. She is a very knowledgeable and strategic divorce attorney. More importantly, she is extraordinarily compassionate and takes her role as legal counselor to heart. She spent time listening and learning about my goals and specific situation before providing advice, ...ensuring that my long-term objectives were met. Divorce is difficult. Having a trusted, compassionate and warm legal advisor to call upon made it much easier. Call Susan today – you won’t regret it!

I could fill a book on how much I appreciate Susan in having her represent me as my divorce attorney. She listened to my concerns and was honest in giving me the full scope of what could happen. She was never arrogant, impatient or used legal terms...I didn’t quite understand. Susan always called... me back and immediately responded to my emails and texts. She was also surprisely affordable! Best of all, I genuinely liked her as a person and would recommend her in a heartbeat to to any family member, friend or colleague! Going through a divorce was so emotional — to have an attorney like Susan at my side was so incredibly comforting!

My divorce case had been lingering for almost 2 years. It got dismissed after 18 months so I had to refile in August. Our magistrate suggested that we use a court appointed mediator and I was totally against it. My soon to be ex-husband had worked with several counselors and mediators and had non...e of those sessions were successful. But my attorney suggested that we give it try and reminded me that I had nothing to lose since we wouldn't be charged. The court appointed Susan and she was ideally suited for our case as she understood the complexity of owning multiple rentals since she also owns property. She patiently listened to both sides and surprisingly remembered everything we said... "mind of steel". When there were gridlocks, Susan made suggestions that we agreed upon. I guess having someone new on our case with a fresh perspective made me want to give more to get this resolved. She pointed out that the longer this continues to drag on the more we lose. Susan got a lot accomplished in 6 hours and needs to be commended for her patience, compassion, experience and intelligence. I am pleased that we had her on our case and with any luck, we will be divorced by the end of year!

Susan was my divorce attorney 5 years ago, in a drawn out case with my very difficult former spouse. She recommended careful decisions which sheltered the best interests of my children and I, and the measures taken protected us then, and protect us still. Can't say I recommend the process of div...orce.. but if you have to however, this is exactly who you want in your corner. When push came to shove, she stood strong and tall on my behalf, with unwavering integrity and commitment.. I feel like the little kid on the playground with the right friend at lunchtime now.

I recently underwent a long, and messy divorce. Susan was very adept at securing the best possible outcome and was very knowledgable, friendly (yet aggressive), and results-driven. This woman saved me and my children from an abusive husband and protected my assets. She filed every motion on time and ...has got to be one of the most organized and intimidating women I have ever met. Her presence literally filled the courtroom. Also, her office was very convenient and well maintained, as was her staff. Even when she went out of the country, I was still able to contact her. I have recommended her to multiple friends who also have had great experiences. If you're looking for the best possible divorce attorney in the Cleveland area, then look no further!
