Handled some estate matters - impressed

Mr. Martin helped my brother and I with estate issues during a difficult time, with the loss of a parent. He was very easy and pleasant to talk to, and we thought he was very fair with fees. This was the first time I have hired an attorney, and he left us with a very positive impression of his profes...sion. If the need arises again, I will be contacting him first.

Best Contract Lawyer in the Metro Area

Mr. Martin has prepared both contracts for myself and my father's business. As well as, given us some of the best legal advice we've ever had. Do yourself a favor and protect your interest. Call Steve. You will be treated with respect and given the best representation the STL Metro area has to offer.... I almost proceeded into a home sale by owner with a contract full of holes. Mr. Martin gave me the advice and paperwork I needed to make sure me and my family were protected. The contract provided to my father has stood the test in the courtroom more than once. Steve is the best there is.

Consult

Contacted Mr Martin for initial consult on a landlord/tenant ESA situation and his advice was so thorough I felt I should pay him for the free consult. He's been through all situations and gave real life advice and suggestions! I will definitely be using him for all my tenant issues going forward!...!

Excellent Legal Services

I contacted Mr. Martin for his assistance on reviewing a recent MO. supreme court ruling that could have a significant affected on my small business. He was quick to respond and did a comprehensive review of the case facts for me. I was very impressed with this knowledge, ability to find the facts of... the case and discuss with me some of the evidence used in the case. He also ascertained for us how this ruling might affect our business practices. I am very pleased and highly recommend Mr. Martin for legal advise.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Steve was immensely helpful as I prepared for a hearing far outside my area of expertise-- I was handling a proceeding for a family member seeking to evict a tenant, and Steve walked me through what I needed to know. No bill, no expectation of compensation; merely a professional courtesy that I greatly appreciate."

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"One cannot overstate the technical prowess and thorough knowledge that Mr. Martin brings to the table whenever he is hired on a matter. Good quality legal work begins behind the scenes, in well-ordered files and legal theories. Mr. Martin taught me the importance of both in my time working under him. I highly recommend this attorney."
