This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great Attorney!!

My wife and I felt extremely comfortable from the very first time we met Stephen…something that doesn’t often happen with most attorney’s. He was professional, knowledgeable, compassionate and really paid attention to the details so he could give us the best advice throughout this whole process. ...We could not have asked for someone better to handle my brothers disputed estate. At one point during our 6 ½ months of working together on this, he actually made himself available during his wedding weekend and his honeymoon. Think about that…have you ever worked with an attorney that would go that extra mile for you? So, if you want an excellent attorney who is also kind and honest, Stephen is the guy who will protect your rights and fight for you to get the justice you deserve. Our thanks to Stephen and his entire staff for being there for us when we really needed it. Sincerely, Kristy & Debi
