Knowledgeable and Caring

Mr. Strain talked with me for over 20 minutes and helped me understand many aspects of our landlord/tenant situation. He told me that much of his work has been "from the tenant side" but, obviously, an attorney must be able to view circumstances from all angles and he advised me about "the landlord ...side" very competently. I highly recommend Mr. Strain to anyone who needs legal assistance.

Excellent, zealous lawyer

I've been dealing with Mr. Strain for about 6 months now, and I have to say I couldn't be happier with my choice of attorney. He's very honest, straight-forward, hard-working, and his rate is very reasonable considering how hard he works to please his clients. He really does a good job of listening... to his clients, taking in their story of their problem, and then immersing himself into that situation, which allows him to be a very zealous advocate for that client. I run my own automotive performance business, and hired Mr Strain to help me through a case involving a customer who was upset about a project taking too long. If this lawsuit went badly, I could easily go out of business from it. There was a lot of gap between my wants and needs, and my customer's, but Mr Strain and the opposing attorney helped work out a solution that worked for both parties, and we're currently working on solidifying the terms so we can settle. In addition to this case, I have found myself contacting and consulting Mr Strain from time to time as issues come up with my business including Better Business Bureau complaints, customers committing fraud, and also to help me write better paperwork, documentation, and website-posted policies for my business to help make my business more law-suit proof. If you run a small business, eventually you find out you can't make some customers happy, and sometimes they're unhappy enough to threaten legal action. Having a good lawyer on your side when these issues pop up makes all the difference, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to hire Mr. Strain to help defend my business.

Easy to work with and very thorough in explaining the process!

Steven was great to work with from beginning to end. He was incredibly thorough in explaining the options I had in my case and the process we chose to take. He is professional, friendly and very knowledgeable.
