I highly recommend Steve who handles personal injury, traffic and criminal cases. He was very patient with explaining the process of handling my case from start to finish. He is very knowledgeable and definitely is someone I recommend to represent others!

The Best of The Best

I unfortunately got myself into a bad situation with a DUI and a high speeding ticket during the same stop. I came across Steve’s 5 star profile and read testimonials and knew he was the one. He contacted me almost immediately after I submitted a request to talk further. Steve made the entire pro...cess unbelievably easy and stress free. He answered every question I had and always in a timely manner, and often times I didn’t even have to ask questions because he was so detailed the information he provided. He kept updated throughout the entire process without me having to ask and was always available via email, call or text. He took ALL the stress out of what was originally an EXTREMELY stressful time. He got me a great plea deal, unsupervised probation, and my speeding ticket (which was very high) to a non moving violation. Keeping my record in great shape. He was also very kind and patient.

Best Attorney in KC Hands Down

Steve is probably the best attorney out there. Saved me a whole lot of time for a case I had. I could not have asked for more, almost put me to tears knowing he got me an outstanding deal on closing my case. If you want someone to work you case with supreme confidence, Steve is the man to get the job... done. Experience attorney, I highly recommend you will not be disappointed.

Best lawyer around!

I highly recommend hiring Steve as your lawyer, I've used him plenty of times since I turned 17 and could not say enough great things about the experience. If you have any problems would traffic violations this is the man to call!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
