He's a gem! Highly recommend!

Steven Coon!!! I would give Steven ten stars if I could exceed the standard five star rating. I had the privilege of working with Steven on a juvenile criminal matter that he successfully closed on 01/30/2026. Throughout the past several months, his compassion, expertise, and responsiveness never wav...ered. From the beginning, I felt confident that Steven had my son’s best interests at heart, treating him with the same care and concern he would give his own. He’s a calming soul which is essential alongside a big personality like me. Steven navigated every step of the process - hearings, pre-trial, rebuttals, and a county transfer with exceptional skill and professionalism. Steven has a very welcoming demeanor and commitment to transparency. I always understood what was happening and what to expect next. Working with Steven erased all of my stress. I would choose Steven again without hesitation and recommend him personally. He’s a gem! Appreciate you!

Professional, Personal, and Responsive - Highly Recommended

Mr. Steven Coon represented me in a lawsuit related to a contract dispute. As someone who has never been involved in a lawsuit and had limited funds to defend my case I am thankful that I was referred to Mr. Coon and that he agreed to represent me. With the opposition possessing far greater resourc...es, I believe many in my position would have eventually given up based on the attrition a legal proceeding can have on a person - mentally, physically, and financially. Thankfully, Mr. Coon was able to counsel me throughout the process providing information, education, and expert guidance in the pursuit of a successful closure to this matter. While I am certain there are attorneys that are equally professional as Mr. Coon, I doubt that many of those attorneys possess the personal intercommunication skills like Mr. Coon which helped us develop a strong relationship of trust and a legal strategy that was agile to adjust as the legal matter evolved. I wasn't just a case number or client ID to him. If he were a doctor we would call this an excellent "bedside manner" and Mr. Coon could have been equally successful as a physician had his path taken him in that direction. Mr. Coon was also incredibly responsive to all of my emails, calls, and texts. In most of those requests he responded the same day or early the next day. I believe for my specific legal situation, Mr. Coon was the right attorney from the right-sized law firm to represent me and my interests professionally and efficiently. I never doubted a single invoice from Mr. Coon who I felt provided exemplary legal representation at an hourly rate that provided very good value for the services rendered. I cannot emphasize this final point enough - had I engaged a larger firm which often has commensurately larger invoices I would have likely had to end my legal defense due to financial reasons. Instead, I am pleased to report that Mr. Coon represented me and my legal matter through its successful completion and final outcome. This would not have been possible without Mr. Coon and his counseling throughout the process. Thank you Steven for agreeing to represent me, your professionalism, your counseling, and your legal expertise. I will not hesitate to engage Mr. Coon and his law firm for any of my legal needs in the future. I highly recommend Mr. Steven Coon.

Prompt and Communicative

Steven assisted me with a car title issue. He responded very promptly to all calls and emails. He explained the situation, the process we'd go through, and answered all of my questions. There was no delay in completing paperwork or filing, so my issue was resolved as quickly as it could be.

Until I saw the above reviews I had decided to just leave my bad fortune alone in the past but since seeing the above reviews It has given me inspiration to open up about my experience with Steven Coon. Steven Coon was actually physically shaking when he tried to handle my civil case in 2011. Even th...ough I won my civil case he actually made circumstances worse in a case that a day-one public defender could have handled with flying colors. When I attempted to consult with him following two primary's testimony he got all shook up and told me he couldn't concentrate. I had to hire a new attorney to clean up his mess. When I tried to discuss follow-up and/or repair to my case he only insulted me and made denigrating statements. He attempted to sway me from reporting him to the board of professional responsibility with veiled threats. All in all I should admit that this outcome has mostly been my fault because I knew he was no good following two short interactions and I hired him anyway. This guy appears to have way more ego than intelligence and I can see from the above reviews I'm not the only person who knows it. Don't make the same mistake I made. This guy worked in a "Legal Service" for eight years taking phone calls. Hire an attorney whom has tenured and actual experience in a private law firm.

Replied last July 27, 2018

My former client was accused of domestic assault by his adult sister. His sister filed an order for protection against him and he hired me to represent him at the evidentiary hearing. We won. My client sent me an edible arrangement he was so pleased with the outcome. My client was subsequently criminally charged with domestic assault and interfering with a 911 call related to the same incident. My client's new criminal lawyer tried to get the charges dismissed based on the OFP decision, which the judge declined to do. So my client calls me up demanding that I contact the OFP judge and request she change some of the language in the order, and I explained that we really can't do that. My client then informed me that he was recording our conversation and intended to file a complaint against me and I discontinued the call. I do not know what the final outcome of the criminal matter was, but winning the OFP certainly did not hurt his defense and his review is nothing more than personal attack.
