Able to provide clarity during a very difficult time.

I hired Steve after our initial consultation call. Even during the initial call he took his time to listen to my full story and explain his next steps. He was very prompt on answering my questions and delivered answers when he said he was going to (something I have had issues with past lawyers givi...ng false timelines). He was able to read through all the documents I sent to him and then was able to explain to me in non-lawyer lingo what all the documents meant. When dealing with will/trust/estate issue when a parent passes is hard enough, then you add Covid and being out of state and it can get very frustrating. Steve was able to explain to laws and next steps I should be taking. He was a very efficient and detail oriented, which brought a lot of relief and clarity to me during a difficult time. I will be contacting Steve in the future for any lawyer needs I have back in Illinois (hopefully I don’t need to contact him again :). I would recommend Steve to anyone in his area looking for a an efficient & ethical representation.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
