Best of the best

From the moment I met Steve, I knew he was the right person to handle my divorce. He is straight forward, honest, and dedicated to doing what's best for his clients and their families. We ran into a complication on the day of my divorce, with my ex trying to renegotiate a signed agreement, and Stev...e handled it with so much confidence, that I was certain things would go my way. He even made a few jokes that helped ease the stress of that day, which I appreciated greatly. The judge ruled in my favor and I walked away very happy with the outcome. I cannot say enough great things about Steve and his paralegal, Jo. They worked very diligently on my case, and were both professional and kind. I would recommend Steve a thousand times over.

Only the best!

Going through a divorce is not easy, to say the least. From the moment I walked into Steve's office, I knew that I was in excellent hands. First and foremost, Steve has your interests are heart. He is brillant, trustworthy, hardworking and dedicated. His para-legal Jo is just as outstanding. The...ir teamwork makes the process run as smoothly as possible. There is no else that can do a better job.

Thorough, on point, honest

Steve handled a couple of post decree modifications for me. From the initial consultation through the conclusion I knew I had hired the perfect attorney for the case. He was upfront about costs, took the time to fully understand the nuances of my particular case, negotiated on my behalf with vigor ...and was ultimately able to settle all the outstanding issues with a result that exceeded my expectations. Jo is fantastic as well! Highly recommend Steve.

Absolutely wonderful team to have in your corner!

Going through a divorce is anything but fun, and believe me, you definitely want Steve and Jo by your side! Steve was recommended to me by someone that actually used to be a divorce attorney. I had a rather difficult case that also involved a child with special needs. From my very first phone call... to Steve's office I was treated like I was his #1 priority. His assistant Jo, is amazing! The two of them balance each other perfectly. Steve is very meticulous. Nothing gets past him. Nothing. If I wouldn't have hired Steve for my divorce, I'm certain it would not have ended anywhere close to how favorable it did for me and my children. Steve and Jo will always be there for you, they will always have your back. If you have to get divorced, do it right. Steve and Jo are simply the best and I am so grateful to them for accomplishing what they did for me!

A Team You Can Count On!

Steve and Jo are absolutely the team you want behind you at one of the most difficult times in your life! They are compassionate, answer all emails/calls, extremely organized, explain every detail so you understand what/why and will ALWAYS have your back. After going through the divorce experience,... I can sleep soundly knowing every nook and cranny has been covered. I feel like Steve and Jo are not just my divorce team but my family!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have known Steve for about 10 years and shared office space with him for about 5. He is smart, aggressive when he needs to be, dedicated to his clients, on top of matters, well respected by the courts and opposing counsel. He is a straight shooter who I would hire in a second if I needed services of a domestic relations attorney. I refer clients to him regularly and all feedback I get from them has been great."
