Phenomenal defense!

Hired her services twice. The first time she took care of everything and explained everything that was required of me, without sugar coating anything. She explained the prosecutors perspective and made sure to answer any and all questions I had for her. The end result was better than I could've ever ...hoped and she made sure to keep in touch with me throughout the entire process. The second time I utilized her services she has come to feel like a motherly figure for me in the legal system. I cannot thank her enough for keeping an open mind and caring as much about my freedom as close family and friends. I felt very reassured with her as my defense. There have also been multiple instances where I have been applauded for choosing her services by the local Bloomington residents.

Great lawyer

I was looking at 12 years in jail for an offense i didn't commit. she explained the rules at trial, explained the risks of trial and the possibility of plea bargaining. I went to trial and the jury decided I was innocent in 1 hour. Stephanie doesn't sugar coat but I had the information I needed a...nd made a good decision. I would recommend her to any one who needs a good lawyer

Did a really good job on criminal charge.

She is very detailed and knowledgeable about the law. Explains the procedure. I felt like I had someone in my corner. I first got her name from another attorney who did not do criminal law but then I got her name again from a second attorney.
