Everything I could ask for

I heard about Stefanie from a friend. Being a guy some of the people in the courts looked at me very unfairly. Me having full custody of my children for nearly 3 years with very little contact from their mother. Ths referee was going to give her 60/40 custody over me. Without going on and explaining ...the entire process because it is a very long case. Stefanie was there for me no matter what. She put my kids first and what was best for them. Their safety was our biggest concern. With ups and downs with the case Stefanie was right there to explain the situation the best she could to me. She faught against the referees suggestions and I still at this point have full legal custody of my kids. Without Stefanie I dont know that things would have turned out this way due to gender alone. She has proved my case and I couldn't be more grateful. Shes an angel in a office and court room lol. I couldn't and wouldnt ever recommend anyone else for a case like this. I knew from the first time I talked to her crying my eyes out to her of my situation. The recommendation was ridiculous and she calmed me down and explained to me what to do. All in just our first phone call. From that moment I knew she was the one for this case. As a parent there is no price you can put on you children's head. There isnt an amount that I wouldnt pay to assure their safety. There isnt anything I wouldnt do for my kids. This is probably one of the hardest times in my life and I have a guardian angel walking me through this process. Stefanie thank you so much for all of your hard work and your dedication. Thank you for putting my kids heartbeats in front of all else. You truly are are great person. Thank you. Chris W.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
