Outstanding lawyer

Mr. Reed did exceptional work on my divorce case. He was highly knowledgeable about the law, the judges, the options, and the local legal climate. I felt like Mr. Reed and his legal team had everything under control all the time. He made sure I was always well prepared for the next step and there w...ere virtually no surprises. Mr. Reed and his team were very caring and responsive, and kept everything amicable with the opposing lawyer. Most importantly, there is nothing I wish I could go back and handle differently.

Guided the case with confidence and professionalism.

Steven Reed and his team was my immediate choice after realizing I was in over my head regarding court procedures and tactics. He led me through the process with determination, confidence, and understanding of the emotions involved - I didn't need to be concerned about anything court-related and tha...t was worth the investment, which was very reasonable and fair. I highly recommend Reed Law Group to anyone seeking law representation.

Recommendation of Steven A. Reed

Steven A. Reed handled my recently settled divorce case. I would recommend the Reed Law firm for several reasons including care and concern for the clients well-being, reasonable cost and making sure the client was educated and prepared for each step in the process. Most importantly Steven guided m...e through the mediation process with the utmost professionalism. What is a very stressful and emotional time was made much more manageable by having Steven's guidance and support.

If time is an issue or concern...

If time is an issue or concern... Look no further! Reed Law Group had my case turned around in less than 24 hours! I am not sure where i would be today without this group!

The best of the best

Steve is great and so is his legal team! Helped me through a traumatic child support hearing. My ex has taken me to court almost every two years for every little thing trying to get even with me for divorcing him. I have used this law firm every time and ALWAYS came out on top! He is a little hig...her in price but you get what you pay for and I got my money's worth for sure! No one wants to go to court, but if you do, you want the BEST! Thanks Reed law firm!

Mediation lawyer | Dec 08

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I recently used Attorney Reed to mediate a child custody matter. I am not an Ann Arbor lawyer. There is always a bit of anxiety when you choose a mediator that you are not personally familiar with, but I must say, my anxiety was wholly misplaced. Mediator Reed did an excellent job working with both parties and aide them in making an agreement. This was not a simple case to resolve, and he did it! I would highly recommend him to any attorney seeking a domestic relations mediator in the Ann Arbor area and beyond!"

Litigation lawyer | Sep 14

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I fully endorse Steve. I have frequently been opposing counsel to Steve and I respect Steve’s trial skills. I know that Steve will be prepared, ethical, make well-reasoned legal arguments, and not waste the Judge’s time with trivial matters. Although having Steve as opposing counsel is always an intellectual challenge, I look forward to having him as opposing counsel because he knows what he is doing and makes the trial process work smooth and efficiently by closely following the Court Rules and Rules of Evidence."

Family lawyer | May 09

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer. Steve Reed is one of the premiere attorneys in Washtenaw County. He understands family dynamics and family law. Steve also has strong ties to various experts in the field from psychologists and evaluators to accountants and private investigators. Every case seems to get the same level of careful attention from Steve. In fact, while an attorney may have a very busy practice, a client's case is the "only" case to that client (and Steve knows that). Steve constantly tracks appellate decisions and is always current on the law. Because of this, we often have animated discussions about cutting line issues. While he is a zealous advocate for his clients, Steve also does mediation. In the midst of high conflict, he sees solutions. I recommend Steve highly."
