Jeffrey Bruce Steinback

Seems like the most empathetic guy in the world, but he will disappear for months at a time and claim that there was some emergency.. I hired him and did two years I sat around in a holding cell while he delayed things over and over, claiming he was sick, or had surgery, or his daughter had crazy th...ings happen to her.. he did not represent me well in my dealing with the government. He put his own relationship with them ahead of his client. I would not trust him.

In my opinion, Jeffery Steinback is the most brilliant Defense Attorney that has ever lived. What stands out the most about him is his genuine ability to take on Clients who deserve a second chance. In my experience, this man has saved my life. Effectively and efficiently, I have watched him master... the art of negotiation in a fair and honest manner, and unlike most lawyers, he does this from his heart. While nonjudgmental and openminded, Mr. Steinback is also an incredible judge of character. He believed in me when I did not believe in myself and he convinced others to do so as well. He is incredibly busy and his services are always in high demand. I do not know much, but I do know this.. god for bid the time comes in ones life when they need to contact Attorney Jeffery B. Steinback, the ones who deserve a second chance will surely be granted one.

WANTED A LOT OF MONEY, WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A FLAT FEE, THEN KEPT UPPING THE MONEY...DID NOT RETURN PHONE CALLS, DID NOT RETURN EMAILS, ASSISTANT DID NOT CALL BACK EITHER, ALMOST NEVER CALLED WHEN HE DID SAY HE WAS GOING TO CALL. JUST DOES PLEAS...SO EXPECT EVERYTHING TO FALL INTO THAT PLACE......NO CHANCE TO GO TO TRIAL AS HE ONLY "NEGOTIATES"....OVERPRICED AND NOT WORTH IT IN MY OPINION...STEER CLEAR OF THIS LAWYER IN MY OPINION. ALSO LIKE TO RECOMMEND IN MY OPINION OTHER GROSSLY INCOMPETENT LAWYERS THAT HE SAYS HE GIVES CASES TO AS WELL. WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY, SO WATCH OUT AND ASK A LOT OF QUESTIONS AS TO WHAT YOU WILL GET FOR YOUR MONEY...OR YOU MAY GET LITTLE..ALSO NO TIME ACCOUNTING FOR THE TIME SPENT EITHER. EVERY EXPERIENCE FOR ME WAS BAD WITH THIS GUY...AND HE IS ALSO ARROGANT AND SELF IMPORTANT...THINKS HE KNOWS IT ALL. IN MY CASE, IMAGINE THIS, HE DID NOT EVEN BOTHER TO REVIEW ONE DOCUMENT OF THE PROSECUTION, NOT ONE, AND THE PROSECUTION HAD OVER 44,000 DOCUMENTS AND 5 YEARS OF INVESTIGATION....HE SAID THAT BASED ON HIS LONG YEARS OF EXPERIENCE ALONE, HE DID NOT HAVE TO LOOK AT ANYTHING!!!! IMAGINE THAT!!!! HE JUST TOOK THE PROSECUTIONS WORD FOR EVERYTHING...DID NO VETTING OF THE CASE LIKE IT WAS HIS FIDUCIARY DUTY TO DO BEFORE RECOMMENDING A COURSE OF ACTION...HE EVEN ASKED ME TO WAIVE THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS ON THE MATTER...WHERE THE PROSECUTION COULD NOT CHARGE ME FOR THIS OFFENSE...HE HAD ME WAIVE IT SO THAT THE PROSECUTION WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO CHARGE ME WITH!!!! INSTEAD OF TELLING THE PROSECUTION THAT I WANTED TO GO TO TRIAL!!!!! SINCE THE PROSECUTION WOULD THEN HAVE NO CASE TO TRY!!!! HE FURTHER STATED THAT HE DID NOT WANT TO ANGER THE PROSECUTOR BY ASKING TO REVIEW DOCUMENTS, THAT THE PROSECUTOR WAS ANGRY ALREADY THAT THIS MATTER WAS LONG ON THE DOCKET..ANGRY??? WAS THE PROSECUTOR SUPPOSED TO BE PLACATED BY MY LAWYER OR WAS HE TO BE CHALLENGED???? THINK ABOUT IT...IN MY OPINION THE LAWYER WAS TOO LAZY TO EVEN CREATE THE APPEARANCE OF INVESTIGATING MY CASE SUCH AS ASKING TO SEE THE DISCOVERY MATERIALS OF THE PROSECUTION, BUT HE NEVER DID...AND THEN WHEN ACCOSTED ABOUT THIS HAS CONSISTENTLY STATED THAT THE PROSECUTOR TOLD HIM HE COULD CHARGE OTHER OFFENSES......JUST LIKE THAT TOOK HIS WORD...AND DID NOT KNOW THAT THE PROSECUTOR ALREADY HAD WRITTEN A LETTER STATING THAT HE KNEW OF NO OTHER OFFENSES THAT WOULD BE CHANGED! HE THEN WANTED TO WITHDRAW FROM THE CASE WHEN I TOLD HIM THAT THIS CONSTITUTED INEFFECTIVE COUNSEL...AND THAT I WANTED MY PLEA WITHDRAWN DUE TO HIS INEFFECTIVE COUNSEL////HE PROMISED TO REBATE TO ME A PORTION OF THE ENORMOUS FEES I PAID HIM, AND PROMISED OVER AND OVER TO PAY FOR A NEW LAWYER BUT THE PROMISES WENT UNFULFILLED.... YOU ARE FREE TO USE YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT AND INTERVIEW THIS GUY WELL BEFORE RETAINING.... HE HAS HAD A NUMBER OF HIGH PROFILE CASES AS PLEA BARGAINS...UT REMEMBER THEY WENT TO JAIL....SO THINK ABOUT THAT....THE ONES ANNOUNCED ALL WENT TO JAIL AS FAR AS I KNOW...ALSO NOTE THAT HE DOES NOT HAVE A WEBSITE....OR INFORMATION ABOUT HIMSELF....VERY LOW PROFILE INFORMATION ABOUT HIMSELF NOTHING REALLY DISCLOSED SO USE YOUR OWN RESEARCH WELL...AND BE SMART ABOUT ASKING QUESTIONS AND INSISTING ON A WRITTEN RETAINER AGREEMENT OUTLINING WHAT HE WILL DO FOR YOU IN THE SERVICES HE WILL PROVIDE. I WOULD NEVER EVER CONSIDER USING THIS GUY OR RECOMMENDING HIM TO ANYONE AT ALL CHECK HIM OUT TO YOUR SATISFACTION OR YOU MAY BE SORRY LIKE ME. -

I had a particularly difficult federal criminal case, and Attorney Steinback handled it superbly. What impressed me (only years later as I understood the possibilities present to him) was that the venue questions (fed/state, if state which state?) and the mens rea were significant and, if litigated,... probably precedent setting. Also the case had national exposure. Attorney Steinback, though was a zealous advocate for my interests. Those interests were for the case die and to not even proceed to indictment. Because of his efforts that is exactly what happened. The weak, overreaching case being built by the federal prosecutors looking to make an national example case of my situation was slapped back. Because of this I have enjoyed years of quiet anonymity. These years of quiet anonymity are the most valuable thing I received when I retained Jeffery Steinback.
