Excellent Lawyer

He's very honest and will do everything he can to help in our behalf. But we're have to do our part in the case too! He can make it happen! Best lawyer in Amarillo!!

Professional representation, honest, fair, and worth your money!!

We hired Steven a few months ago on two separate occasions. It was a no brainer after other attorneys asked me what my address was to that I could use my house as collateral due to a $100,000 retainer fee! Steven's retainer in both cases was reasonable. Steven represented my son and carried a very ...professional demeanor. He represented him to a degree of fairness with the justice system. He managed to get a felony dropped down to a misdemeanor! A felony would have haunted my young son forever. According to other attorneys there was a slim to no chance of dropping the charge to a lessor charge. He also advised me into requesting a cash bond before I retained him! He stepped in when we needed him the most. After everything settled, he filed a motion and allowed us to receive our entire cash bond minus a $50 processing fee! He answered our phone calls and emails in a very timely manner. At times it was after hours. He listened to our request and used his defense skills to the highest degree. He knows both side of the "system." He has earned our respect as an attorney and overall as an individual who cares about his clients. We would hire Steven in a heartbeat if ever needed in the future!

My mother and I went to visit Steven Denny, he was up front, honest, and he explained every question we had, he was very thorough on explaining. I would use him in the future, if ever needed, and recommend him to friends and family.

You made me feel like I had to take the prison plea bargain even when I told you I didn't do the crime . Or I would get 20 yrs

I was represented by him and I'm very upset I learned a lot after the fact . He advised me to take x amount of yrs wich was more than 3yrs but less than 8 and not to risk 20yrs he didnt tell me that there was no physical evidence and no witnesses in the case also that the reports of assult filed on m...e were made online there wasn't even pictures or officers to witness any injury he never returned any calls from family or friends that had information and evidence to help improve my case .. thanks for the help. - victim of a public defender

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.
