Absolutely Wonderful

Steve worked on my case for two years and was phenomenal. He kept me up to date on the happenings of my case and always made me feel like my case was his number one priority. Steve went above and beyond what I would've expected from a lawyer. He explained the processes of what was going on, what was ...expected of me, and always answered whatever question I might have had. Even after my case was officially done with, he provided me with resources to help me figure out how to smartly handle the outcome. I would recommend Steve to anyone who needed a lawyer.

Highly Recommended

I reflect as many, many months ago I stared at this exact website pondering whether to pick up the phone to call an attorney or not. My wife, my mother, and I had just been in a terrible car accident... but it was the first week of the accident. Who knew the horror and health problems we would al...l face over the course of the next year or so. I, after reading Steve Caya's positive reviews, reluctantly decided to reach out to Steve to make an appointment, even though at the time I wasn't even sure if we would need an attorney or not. Fast forward over a year later, and please... allow me to say that, although the circumstances have not been what we would ever have hoped for, that having Steve in our corner and calling the shots has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. The man is reputable, knowledgable, and has been an incredible resource for us from the beginning. You won't regret it-- pick up the phone and call him now.

Win one for the team

I've known Steve for almost 4 years now. He was referred to me by a friend after a terrible car accident that i was involved in. I can honestly say if you are involved in any type of accident this is the go to guy. It was a great time working with him and he listens. He offers great advise and he rea...lly knows his stuff and doesn't bow down to the other guy. Although I was going through a tough time Steve and all of the staff at his office kept me up beat and positive. When it was all said and done Steve and his staff got me more money than we were expecting. I highly recommend Steve and his staff for all of your attorney needs, along with the all the other attorneys at Nowlan and Mouat. They All did a great job!

Couldn't ask for more

Steve did an outstanding job representing us in our personal injury claim. After our original attorney at another firm got cold feet Steve took over and led the way to about as good an outcome as we could have possibly achieved. Along the way Steve was extremely proactive in explaining the good, the ...bad, and the ugly of the legal process. And he made what was a very difficult and unpleasant situation for us as bearable and streamlined as possible. We really appreciate all that Steve did for us and absolutely recommend him for anyone in a similar situation.

Professional and Hard Working

My mother was involved in a car accident with serious injuries in 2013. We have never been in this situation before and looked to Atty. Steven Caya for assistance. Steven and his staff (particularly Sarah Odalen) took care of everything. There were so many bills—hospitals, doctors, specialists, su...rgeries, therapy, etc. and they kept track of it all. The process was explained very well and we were always kept up to date. Every phone call or email communication was met with immediate response. We were always treated with kindness, understanding, and respect throughout the whole process. Thank you to everyone at Nowlan & Mouat for all of your hard work. We highly recommend Atty. Steven Caya for all of your personal injury needs as he will treat you like a member of his family and work hard for everything you deserve.
