Worst Lawyer Experience Ever You Will Be Frustrated if you Use Him

Met with Mr Trahey who I was actually referred to. He treated me condescendingly and there was zero communication unless I pressed for it. Timing delays caused extra paperwork and time on both sides. Mr. Trahey didn't even respond to the initial case so I was fighting a pending default judgement. I a...greed to the fee then heard nothing. Later I found out it was up to me to call and pay first. He never send instruction after I agreed to the fee. Then he wanted additional fee above the flat rate he first quoted. Charges $50 just to read a simple email. You will be sorry if you use this lawyer

Experience could not have been better

Mr Trehey is the most down to earth, understanding and reasonably priced attorney I could have ever hoped for. I called around for help. Other lawyers quoted thousands of dollars before having the details of the case. One told me it would not be worth the cost. A few didn't return my call. Mr. ...Trehey helped my son get his property back from the police department. He answered all our questions and understood our need and reasons. He is wonderful. Mr. Trehey is now my family attorney who I will turn to for wills, trusts and anything else that comes up. I refer Mr. Trehey to anyone who needs legal advice / Services. Thank you Mr. Trehey

WON MY JURY TRIAL

We went through a Jury Trial in which 3 police officers testified against me and Attorney Steve Trahey won our case! Thank you Trahey Law Office.

We won!

Thanks Mr. Trahey for taking on a major auto manufacturer in my sexual harassment case and obtaining a large settlement!

Excellent Representation

I was impressed with the attorney. He was knowledgeable about the law and different scenario's regarding my custody case. The support staff kept me informed on upcoming events and documents reviewed, from start to finish and if there was a question unanswered I would receive a response by the next ...day. I felt they cared about my case and would help in any way necessary to achieve the overall goal agreed upon.
