An Attorney with Knowledge

Peggy Stevens represented me with my social security disability benefits case . . . . I'm so glad I chose her for this job, she was honest, straight to the point, and kept me updated regularly. Peggy had two jobs with my case, my benefit dealings and my impatient behavior. She handled both very we...ll. So, for you first timers, this is not an overnight process, it takes a lot of time and patience. Peggy does her hob well. Had I known my first round with another law firm would become an epic failure, I would have called Peggy L. Stevens/Stephanie A. Johnson Law firm first!!! This will be your one stop shop, you will feel the confidence immediately. Thanks again, Peggy!

Outstanding Attorney

I've known Peggy for several years. Whenever I have a situation whereby I cannot take a case, Peggy is the first attorney I will call to refer the client. She is honest and caring and always goes the extra mile for her clients. She is an exceptional attorney.

Effective. Experienced Professional. Honest.

Peggy won my case and was a honest and professional throughout the process. She knows what she's doing and she's good at it. I can't recommend her enough.

Peggy's help with my case

I was initially given Peggy's name as a referral. After meeting with her, I hired Peggy to represent me in my disability case with Social Security and my experience was very satisfactory. My case was very successful, as my case was approved. She certainly helped to reduce my stress through out the... case as she handled the the paperwork and forwarded any necessary paperwork for me to fill out, to me, with the instructions on how to fill them out. I would certainly hire her again if I had the option or needed her expertise.

A Winning Attorney

I have known Peggy for several years and cannot speak more confidently of her lawyering skills, intellect, and most importantly, her ability to produce and win. I have witnessed Peggy successfully work a Personal Injury case one day, garner custody of a child for a deserving parent the next and help... a client successfully wade through the nightmare of the Social Security process yet the next day. I proudly endorse Peggy.
