Working relationship review of Stephen G. Jeffery

I have worked with Mr. Jeffery on numerous occasions over the past 20+ years. Project work includes working for him on environmental projects where data generated is privileged and confidential and with him as part of an environmental team. I have always found him to be innovative, extremely knowle...dgeable about relevant environmental regulations and laws, timely, and honest. I would recommend him as an environmental attorney for any client or situation that requires the best but at a reasonable cost.

I am a client of Stephens for Dnr appeal hearing

Dnr has been accepting operating permits for concentrated animal feeding operations even when it is shown they are acting against the peoples needs to protect themselves and their environmental natural resources from potential pollution . Stephen has represented us against this giant issue and has ga...llantly put every best effort to protect us from this potential pollution by appealing dnr and helping create positive reform and protection against these cafos. He has true grit and fierce determination . In the appeal hearing i felt Stephen could have been the teacher of the other attorneys. He is all about respect and focused on achieving the goals we set together. I strongly recommend Stephen ! As his client I am very impressed with his abilities to bring about positive change.

Excellent knowledge of Environmental Law

Our companies have used Mr. Jeffery for many years for your environmental law needs. He is personal and always makes certain that we understand his advice. Mr. Jeffery is very knowledgeable regarding Missouri law. He is able to maneuver through the solid waste regulations and streamline our needs t...o blend with our county regulations. He is well known at the state level and has a good reputation for thinking outside the box to complete projects while, at the same time, streamlining his work to keep on task.

Strong Legal Charactor, Trust and Team Player for Environmental Compliance

I have known Steve for over 20 years (while in private industry and consulting) and have utmost respect for his legal knowledge, personal character, and overall client management. As a consultant, I have recommended Steve as outside environmental counsel to two of my top clients I have worked with fo...r over 8 years - they are very satisfied, respect his business development skills, legal knowledge, and no - nonsense approach to simple and complex environmental compliance issues. This adds to my credibility as a consultant in utilizing strong legal counsel, and consider us a great team!

  • 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.
