After consultations with several recommended attorneys, I chose Steve because of his calm demeanor, clarity and attentiveness; I know now that made a very good choice. It is with great gratitude that I write this review, enthusiastically recommending this good man as an advocate, should you have the... misfortune of needing a divorce. Steve and his kind, competent paralegal, Jo Ellen, very patiently supported and guided me through times of fear and confusion, answering my many questions as I processed through my divorce. I am eternally grateful to both of them. Steve remained calm and respectful at all times— to everyone; his respectful manner is constant and noteworthy. His steady peacefulness kept me calm and gave me confidence, knowing that he was in my corner. Steve is an intelligent strategist who is focused and dedicated to his client’s best interests; his attention to detail and evident effort in preparation are sublime and translate to a favorable outcome in court. As I watched him work on the day of my trial, it was clear that Steve loves what he does and he does it very well. I was stunned and pleasantly surprised with the outcome of my divorce--I never expected such generously positive results! Thank you, Steve, for advocating for me.

I have immense gratitude, respect and appreciation for Steve and Jo. I did not know where to turn when my husband wanted a divorce. Several recommendations pointed one direction: Steve August. In the most trying time of my life, I found great reassurance I was in the best hands possible to handle e...very aspect of my divorce. Steve and Jo guided me in every aspect of this journey. There were so many details to address in my situation - many of them seemed overwhelming and confusing to me. I was reassured knowing Steve would leave no stone unturned. The attention to detail in every aspect of representing me was impeccable - focused, hardworking and driven to reach an outstanding settlement for my future. Both Steve and Jo were always attentive to my questions and concerns making me feel comfortable and reassured I would be ok. They are truly the best. I wish I could leave a 10 star rating.

Getting divorced can be challenging, sad and frustrating, to say the very least. I remember asking around for “the good guy”. I wanted to be fair and yet strong. I wanted to be protected and smart, but to “do the right thing” I knew 28 yrs ago that I married the right person and believed that for a v...ery long time until one day everything changed. The day I decided that I needed to be divorced I knew that I needed someone in m y corner. I needed someone with a soul, not the guy you hear about that takes you for a ride and before you know it, the situation is out of control, both in emotion and cost. Thank God I found Steve. He was everything good I was looking for. He was tough and strong when I needed him to be. He listened when I needed him to listen. He trusted me as I trusted him to do the right thing. Steve is a family man himself so he understood where I was coming from and wanted to help me resolve my exit the right way. He was able to reason with my spouse, something I hadn’t seen anyone do in a long time. He did his job to the final degree. I must say he couldn’t do all of this without his awesome assistant Jo. She was conscientious and finitely detailed. She was kind and supportive. I never thought I would write a review on what a “good outcome” of a divorce would look like, but here I am doing so.. Thank you Steve and Jo. I am grateful that you both know your way and you guided me to where I needed to be in the end. I walked away knowing no matter what that I did the right thing.

Not only am I a client, but I am also an attorney. When I was blindsided with divorce, Steve was the first person I called. Although I initially thought the divorce would be collaborative, I quickly realized that would not be the case, and the process would be even more difficult. Steve was fa...ntastic through the whole process. He kept me fully informed, provided great service (all of my questions and concerns were very promptly answered in a direct and straight forward manner), and gave me great advice. Most importantly, he listened to what I needed, set the priorities to get those things accomplished, and put me first. He was direct, effective, compassionate, and efficient. While divorce (especially with kids) is traumatic, having Steve in my corner allowed me to preserve my relationship with my kids, get the custody arrangement that I wanted, move forward in life, and maintain financial stability. Thanks, in large part to Steve, life did move forward after separation and divorce. I do not wish the grief of the end of a long marriage on anyone, but if they must face it for any reason, Steve should be their first call!!!

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.
