About Steven
Biography
I am the principal attorney at The Henry Law Firm, P.A., a boutique family law practice established in 2008. This law firm purposesfully distinguishes itself by providing detailed and thorough information to each of its clients so that every client is educated about their specific family law matter and the process involved through the court system. Our goal is to reduce client anxiety by providing the highest level of commitment and dedication to our clients’ various family law matters.
Prior to founding the firm, I worked as a senior attorney in Kansas City, Kansas for a state wide non-profit, public interest law firm dedicated to assisting low income Kansans with essential legal services in the areas of family law, bankruptcy law, and social security disability law. My responsibilities included supervising the legal work of pro bono attorneys, and I especially took delight in mentoring law school students who served in an internship capacity.

Amazing lawyer!
I highly recommend the Henry Law Firm, P.A. for any child custody situations in or around Overland Park, KS. When our family was faced with an unexpected child custody situation, Steve immediately accepted the case when all other firms turned us away due to the urgency. The Henry Law Firm, P.A. displ...

Replied last November 27, 2021Thank you so much for your thoughtful and kind words of endorsement. Your review of our child custody services is quite appreciated. **All potential clients should understand that one client’s successful result is no guarantee of achieving the same result in a different case. Each client's case is reviewed and analyzed on its own unique set of facts and circumstances. No two cases are exactly identical.

Excellent service, extremely knowledgable
Steve has done an excellent job of laying out expectations and defining a legal strategy. I've learned the value of a partnering with a strong attorney as opposed to considering an attorney as someone you hire to drive an outcome. Steve knows the laws in his field, understands the players and can o...
