This Attorney Was Recommended by Others - Glad I Hired Him, Too

Working with Steven August during my divorce was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. He is truly a high value attorney and the outcome he achieved for me was worth every dollar, and remarkably, he wasn’t even the most expensive lawyer I’ve retained. In fact, he delivered the best results at the... lowest cost, which says everything about his skill, integrity, and commitment to his clients. Steven has an exceptional emotional IQ. He consistently made me feel at ease, even during the most stressful moments, and he handled every detail with calm confidence. I often compare him to other attorneys I’ve worked with over the years, and he stands out as the absolute best. What is the price you pay for peace of mind? With Steven, that peace was priceless. He is not only an outstanding lawyer but also a genuinely kind person. His legal assistant, Jo, is equally wonderful - responsive, thoughtful, and always kind. Together, they make an incredibly supportive team. I would recommend Steven August without hesitation. If you want expertise, compassion, and a lawyer who truly delivers, he is the one to retain. -Brook H.

Best Divorce Attorney and Human Being When Going Through Divorce

The divorce process isn't easy, but working with Steve and Jo was more than what I could've expected. I was not always emotionally at my best and they were both incredibly patient with me, made sure that I understood the process, and were both very aware and supportive of my needs. They made an intim...idating and confusing process proceed as seamlessly as possible and showed true humanity during this challenging time. Jo was available in the office for any questions I had and was always empathetic and supportive. Steve also went above and beyond what one would expect from their attorney to give me and my family the best outcome. Their experience is immense and their care for their clients is evident. I would recommend Steve and Jo to anyone seeking a divorce attorney with experience, incredible skill and kindness and empathy throughout the process. They are good people who genuinely care about the process and the people who they represent.

A wonderful and caring, divorce attorney who gets the job done!

I worked with Steve on my divorce for many years. Throughout the entire time he was always on top of things and always felt like he had my best interest in mind. When things were complicated, he always seemed to figure them out in a way that made me feel incredibly comfortable with the plan, which t...hen resulted in a great outcome. His assistant Jo was a pleasure to communicate with, and she always seemed to get things done in a timely fashion. I feel very fortunate that I used Steve and his staff for my lengthy divorce and I’m very happy with the outcome. I would recommend Steve without any hesitation to anyone who is looking for a divorce lawyer.

Savior

I was referred to Steven Lee August by a friend after complaining that my divorce has been dragging for over 2.5 years. 3 month later I was divorced thanks to Steven August and his team. They made the process so easy and efficient and gave me the best resolution possible. I absolutely would recommend... them. Absolutely the best!!!

Great Service

I called Steve for a consult on getting a divorce. I had so many questions and concerns that I felt overwhelmed at the time. Steve was great, he set my mind at ease and answered all my questions. He was very professional throughout the proceedings and was able to negotiate a fair agreement with my ...ex’s counsel. He and his team are amazing at the services they provide and are always friendly. I highly recommend their services.

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."
