Ryan Francis Stephan

Let me say I've sought out the assistance of this firm on 3 different occasions and I was never let down. This last time around it was a bit more involved with frequent visits and conf calls. When I tell you that they are great people to work with you can bet on it. Andy, Ryan and Anna were always on top of the matter along with updates all in the time. They are awesome at what they do and I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND this firm to address your needs. Thanks again team for believing in me and seeing me thru it all. P.S. Anna has great candy treats in her office if you need a chocolate fix!!

I consulted two employment attorneys with a question about unpaid overtime. Ryan Stephan was calm, no hype, and the clear choice. My question developed into a class action lawsuit which took 2 1/2 years to payout. It was Ryan's assistance and persistence that enabled the payout. He was professional and kind from beginning to end. Even though he's in Chicago, he handled our California based case. I highly recommend him.

Ryan looked over a non compete I was in. His response time and expertise were truly helpful. Highly recommend him!

Ryan was the lead attorney on my case. He was very helpful in putting me at ease about my situation. His strategy was extremely impressive, and I was amazed at how he put together the details to argue my case, which resulted in an extremely satisfying settlement. He listened to my input, and calmed me during some very stressful times over the course of the case. If you want results beyond your expectations, hire him and his team!

I spoke to several lawyers prior to my relationship ending with this former employer, then afterwards several more. Ryan listened to ALL of the details without making any assumptions. He took the time to explain all of my options. He wasnt rushed or short with me as many of the other lawyers I spoke to were. He helped me feel supported at a time where I felt powerless. He gave me hope and then delivered on his promises to me. Ryan Stephan is honest, kind, compassionate, and helpful. It's been a pleasure working with him and I will be referring anyone I can his way. Excellent work. Very professional Thank you!

I was referred to Ryan. I work for a large national company and needed someone to speak to for legal advice. Ryan was different in every way when i compare him to past lawyers I've had to deal with. From the very start he actually listened to my story....the whole story! He never cut me off or tried to rich me off the phone and made me feel like I had to wrap it up. He listened and he then gave me some legal direction as I was unsure what to do. He never pushed me to hire him and after a couple calls I knew he was someone who really just cares about helping people. He always made himself available and after each call I felt so much relief I can't even tell you how that was needed. I know if i ever need anything or if anyone I know ever needs legal guidance that Ryan is the guy to send them to. i can't say enough good things and he knows the law! He didn't string me along and was very upfront with my choices and educated me with different outcomes so i knew ahead of time the different way things could go. I've never met an attorney who makes you feel like they will drop whatever to help you and that's how i felt like with Ryan. When you are going through something at your job where you feel you need to seek legal counsel it really helps to have someone who makes you a priority. Thanks Ryan for everything!!!! Lissy

Everything I expected and more. From the first rime I spoke with Ryan he gave me a confidence about this case I didn’t have before. Ryan explained to me everything we were going to fight for, and that’s exactly the way it went. I strongly suggest looking into this law firm if you have any discrimination situation arise. This is the firm you want to deal with trust me. Thanks for the honesty and the quality in which you handled my case.

Ryan has been so good to me. We worked together to come up with a plan and he delivered. He is easy to get in touch with, compassionate with the emotional toll taken per your situation, and he delivers fast results. I am so pleased with the work done. Thank you Ryan!

I want everyone to know that finds this review that Ryan Stephan is hands down the best lawyer you can have on your side. He has helped me numerous times and has never failed me. He is accessible, professional and highly skilled. If you are looking for the best of the best you need to speak to Ryan!

In 2014 I was searching for an attorney to represent me in an employment case (misclassification and tortous interference). Ryan Stephan contacted me and after talking to him and reviewing his firm's website and their extensive experience in this area, I decided that he was the right attorney for me. Ryan and his team were always there to support me and my case, was attentive and responsive to every inquiry I had, and performed their responsibilities diligently. We won a portion of my case and I believe we would have won both parts of the case if we did not have to go before an arbitrator, per an agreement I had signed with my employer. If you are looking for an attorney that will go the extra mile, then I highly recommend Ryan Stephan and his firm. They are results oriented and THAT IS WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!

I reached out to Ryan roughly 3 months ago to tell him about my situation. He was excellent with his fact finding and we had 3 phone conversations and then met in person at his office. From there we reached a settlement about 2 months after first contact and I received my payment this week. Excellent customer service and he is true to his word throughout the process!

Ryan and his associated Katie represented myself and other employees of the bank in obtaining overtime pay.

The law firm, Stephan Zouras, handled a matter for me that was very problematic - I cannot be too specific because of the nondisclosure agreement, but suffice it to say that they came through for me FAR beyond my expectations - TWICE, in TWO separate cases. I will DEFINITELY use them in the future if I ever have any similar cases against unfair employers. Anyone that thinks attorneys are not accessible needs to hire this firm. Every staff member (Kerry, Ryan, many others) was polite, and professional, understanding, kind, and sympathetic. Thanks again, to all of you on my settlement!

Ryan worked me while I was part of class action against a former employer who was in violation of various labor laws. he was very pleasant to work with, my overall experience with the firm was very positive and I highly recommend him and his team. if you want the outcome you're looking for then he's your guy

Ryan and his firm's reputation of Class action, Employment, labor, and wrongful termination law is recognized and respected by several other firms. Ryan was detail oriented and discovered additional offenses made by my previous employer. He guided me through the process with empathy, honesty and experience. Ryan was able to quickly settle my case with results I had expected.
