Disappointing

Turley is an ambulance chaser, when in court he actually made things up to say about my ex that were not true. I understand that his job was to make me look better but I don't believe in fabricating information, just to win. I ended up having to fire him because I just didn't feel like his behavior w...as ethical. My ex is not a bad person or a bad mother and I don't feel that it was appropriate to attack her integrity to accomplish my goals. Just stick with the facts, there was no reason to twist things around. No wonder attorney's get a bad wrap, thankfully not all of them act like this.

Amazing

Stephen Turley is a phenomenal attorney. He has been my attorney since 2014 and has represented me in court multiple times. He always has my best interest at heart. He is incredibly smart and fights for what is right. He will continue to be my attorney for as long as I need him. I wouldn't hesitate o...ne second to refer anyone to him!

Highly recommended, very professional

Stephen advised me on several legal topics over the past few years, including estate planning and family law. He is very knowledgeable and his advice saved me many headaches. I greatly appreciate his professionalism and his explanation of the process. I trust Stephen and recommend contacting him.

Very unprofessional

He sent me paperwork for a hearing. Then went it was final the paperwork had another costly item that was not in original paperwork. When I called to question the item, he wouldn't let me tell him my side of the story. He was snotty and unprofessional.

All business

I hired Stephen a few years ago and he really took charge of my case. He was able to represent me and get everything I was seeking. Thanks again!
