Super grateful!

Steve August and Jo were super helpful and a pleasure to work with. They walked me through every step and answered all of my many questions. Divorce is a stressful process but they made it that much easier. I came to them through two friends’ recommendations and I would definitely recommend working w...ith them to anyone else !

Don't go into a battle for your life with a squirt gun

When you're fighting for your future, use the sharpest weapon you can. I can't say enough about Steve and paralegal Jo. They are smart, strategic and responsive. Steve has a cool head and a kind heart but don't mistake his compassion for your situation because he's fierce against opposing counsel. W...ould not do battle without them.

Grateful

Steve August is smart, hardworking, responsive, kind and calm. Steve successfully removed my spouse from participation in a trust intended for the children and also worked to ensured that I received half of the marital assets. Steve handled all interactions with my spouse, shielding me from uncomf...ortable interactions. I am grateful for Steve's careful consideration of my feelings and concerns during this emotional and unsettling process I would be remiss if I did not mention Jo, his paralegal. Jo is a key link and handles questions and concerns with speed and kindness. On several occasions when I did not respond quickly or accurately Jo patiently reached out to help me complete the necessary task.

Steven August

Steven August was highly recommended to me by my step-daughter who was also in the process of divorce. From the very time I met Steve and Jo they made me feel comfortable and assured me that they would give me the best possible service....and that is exactly what they did from start to finish. Jo, h...is paralegal, was great! She never made me feel like a bother. She was so kind and helpful and totally on the ball! Steve took charge from the moment I met him. He answered every question, explained the process and was so impressive and assertive in court. He always had my best interest at heart and defended me every step of the way. I was so proud to be represented by Steve! He and Jo make an awesome team. Thank you for all the time and effort you put into my case!

The BEST!

I had post decree issues that arose and Steve was the perfect choice. Steve exudes professionalism coupled with kindness. In addition, he never wavered in his commitment to my case. He remained calm, confident and never let a detail slip by. Most importantly, he prioritized my children's needs. ...Jo is amazing and just her voice let's you know all is ok and handled. Steve is extremely intelligent yet not arrogant. In the end, Steve and Jo were the perfect strategists and I had a favorable outcome.

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."
