Absolutely Incredible
Suzanne absolutely saved my life! I can't imagine where I would be without her. I got myself into a difficult place and someone recommended that I call Suzanne. The moment I spoke with her, I felt at ease. She calmed my fears and gave me a detailed plan on what we were going to do to fix everything. In all honesty, I left her office in tears of relief. She has been by my side every step of the way, and has never failed to answer any of my questions or hesitated to explain what was going on. The legal process isn't the easiest thing to understand for someone who's never dealt with it. That lack of knowledge can be scary. But with Suzanne there, I wasn't worried. She was always a call or text away. I recommend her to absolutely anyone who needs help. She will set you on the right path and work with the most dedication to get you where you need to be.

Best Money I've spent in a long time!!
At first I thought, Suzanne, was a bit high for the cost to obtain her services, but after working with her on my sons case, I couldn't have spent the money on a better lawyer. She did such an amazing job, was always available any time I needed her and answered any question. Look no further for a defense attorney as she'll be your one and only stop. If I EVER need another lawyer in TX she'll be my first and last call!!! I would HIGHLY recommend her. Do not listen to the one bad review she got on Google; that person has her mixed up with someone else. If I could give 10 or more stars I would.

Case Dismissed!
Suzanne is way more than an attorney, she is an advocate and champion for her clients. Her legal approach is extremely effective and she is an "out of the box" thinker. Once she had all of the details related to my case she said, "Not every case is worthy of a dismissal, but yours is and I will fight for this", and she did. My case was dismissed and I will forever be grateful to her!!!

My Guardian Angel
When I was first reached out to Suzanne I felt an immediate connection. A feeling that this person truly cares and wanted to help me. I reached out to a few more attorneys thinking it would be best to do my due diligence but it was a done deal after our initial discussion. She takes on a personal, life and love style approach. An approach I would think not many attorneys would do. She was upfront, honest, didn’t try to give me a sales job, but more importantly gave me things to think about. It was legal therapy. Or maybe…therapy from someone with a law degree. She touched into the root of my problem while trying to get us the best outcome from the situation. I was hopeless….lost…sad…ashamed…stressed. Talking to her just made everything seem ok. That this wasn’t going to define the rest of my life. And amongst all the life and love changing experience on a personal level, we got a great result from my charge. She’s a pro. You will not be disappointed in her. Her door is always open and I never felt I was bothering her or being a nuisance. She will work for you. She cares. She will make you not feel ashamed. And at the end of the day, you’ll need someone like that on your side because the clerks and people at court in Denton county do not! I’m so glad I lucked out and found her. I got a great person…a friend. Hope you do too.

Better then amazing
If your looking for a lawyer that actually listen to you, that goes over & above for her clients then CALL HER! You get a smart lawyer who truly cares to help and fights for what is right! She has helped me at my lowest time in life when I felt that nobody cared to listen and I would be stuck dealing with consequences that the gov system over looks. She has passion, heart, motivating, dedicated, and strong at what she does! Call her and you won’t call anyone else!

An excellent, holistic lawyer who knows the situation is more than just the charge
Ms. Stevens was referred to my family when one of my children was charged with a felony. From start to finish she worked with us on assembling a plan to work with all involved parties. She made sure as parents we knew what we needed to do to assist with the case. She worked with my child to prepare them to engage with the state in a positive and appropriate manner. She worked with the state to make the appropriate accommodations in the bond order to keep them engaged in their education. Above all Ms. Steven's was accessible and patient working with us to understand what was needed to cope with and manage the situation.

Best lawyer in Texas
I first met Mrs Stevens while I was in custody in the county and from that day until the day my case was resolved everything she told me she would do she did she was very hands on with my case and accessible anytime I had any questions or needed to meet to discuss my case she fought for me as if I was a member of her own family and made sure that she did everything to make sure my case turned out favorably for me I believe in her and would recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer.

Suzanne is the best of the best!!
Spent roughly 7 hours speaking with this woman the first time we met and it was incredibly worthwhile. She turned an unfortunate situation into a valuable experience. Suzanne is a deeply invested and spiritual individual, she’s personable, passionate, and thorough. Everything you would hope for in an attorney, and some! She’s gives life changing advice and truly cares in a way that is second to none. I am eternally honored and grateful to have found her!!

The best attorney in town.
I have never met anyone like Suzanne Stevens. Not only did she help me with all my troubles. But I have never trusted a lawyer. Until now! She went to the mat for me. She was always there for me if I had questions. Not only that! She really cares for me. In a time when everyone else left me. She was always there for me and still is. God bless you Suzanne.

Best Lawyer I ever HIRED!
Mrs. Stevens is hands down ONE OF THE BEST LAWYERS I've ever had the pleasure of meeting/hiring. I was in a really bad legal bind when I first met Mrs. Stevens and I had spoken to numerous lawyers before her and none of them gave me much hope for my particular situation unless I was willing to spend a whole lot money, but right from the very start of our conversation. Mrs. Stevens has an uncanny way of making a person feel everything is gonna be okay and she really cared about my situation. She never rushed my time with her and never looked for ways to over charge me with made up work or phone calls to make extra money off me as a client like some lawyers I have dealt with in the past. She went ABOVE & BEYOND her normal call of work to make sure my legal matter was handled quickly and efficiently. And now a year later after dealing with this matter for nearly 6yrs, I am VERY HAPPY TO SAY...my situation is ALL CLEARED and Mrs. Stevens even managed to keep all this off my record. I would refer Mrs. Stevens to ANYONE in need of legal help and would rehire her in a heartbeat if ever in need of legal services again. Thank you so much Mrs. Stevens, I couldn't have done all of this without you!

A Lawyer Who Works For You!
From the first moment of retaining Mrs. Stevens, she was laser focused on me. My case was only a piece of my issues. She helped me to solve my issues that led to getting into legal troubles. She gave me specific advise she believed would help us with getting a better deal from the state. She was 100% correct. She works her butt off for you, but she expects results from her clients as well. Her way of practicing law paid off for me and I'm in a much better place in my life than I have been in decades. I cannot recommend her enough!

The BEST attorney, hands down.
I don't usually take time to write a review but I found it very necessary to do so. I was charged with assault. I had never been in any serious trouble so I decided to find a lawyer. She was there 100% of the time! Day or night. Some parts of the case were complicated, she did everything to help my side of the story be heard! She cared about me, my family.. I will NEVER go to another attorney!!

Compassionate, hard working and amazing!!
Suzanne is amazing person and lawyer! She helped us in a tough situation when we were from out of state, she worked quickly to ensure we returned to our family promptly. She was extremely compassionate and immediately jumped on the situation which had a huge impact on our lives. We truely felt like she cared and was there to help fight for what was right in a situation that should not have occured in the manner it did. It was amazing what Suzanne was able to do in such a short time for us, our lives would be very different right now if we would not have found someone so spectacular. We would highly recommend her to anyone, she will walk you through everything and put so much into the fight for you. Can't say enough about how great she is!!!
