Steven Richard Louth

Steven Richard Louth has received positive reviews for his work in criminal defense. Clients have praised him for his professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to achieve favorable outcomes. As a previous client (Kenneth Martin) I will mention that he is not afraid to go to trial and has a stron...g track record of winning cases. Steven 's empathy and willingness to listen, even when some cases did not fall within his area of expertise are impeccable. - Sincerely Mr. Martin.

I hired Steve because my case was complicated. I needed someone to do research on how is it a cop shows me a photo of the bumper of my car in contact with a beat up hyundai. I knew 100% that there was no way I did this. The charge: 12 pts. I hired Steve because he said he would visit the scene of t...he crime, so he could see the subsidized housing complex, the other cars in the street, a visual of the renters, and a good history of the car accidents on that road. He didnt make it over, he decides from the 911 call that the caller whom he'd never met was right and I was wrong . I felt trapped with an attorney who I had given 3000$ and he had promised one thing and did the other. In court he bargained down to 2 points telling me "This is a win". I couldn't believe it. I told him of a situation 2 yrs prior of being blamed for something, and was told I had to plead guilty. He said, "...and you don't want to do that again. ". Steve had left no time for us to converse recent events and driving history to give him a bigger picture. So I went from having a good driving history with an excellent insurance to having no insurance to drive anymore. I work in health care and a masters degree. I'm very aware, vigilant, and honest. I tried to pick an attorney who is similar. This didnt happen.

I am compelled to write a review for Mr. Louth, consummate attorney, because of the extremely thorough and professional services I received from his office and from Mr. Louth directly. I liked him right away because he is confident, cerebral and very detailed. He met with me in person, numerous times..., and was able to listen to my needs and concerns. Above all, perhaps his best quality was his courage to take the issues straight on, even in a case where I was up against the wall. Other attorney's I met for my case, on the first impression, advised me to lay down, and just swallow a hard pill. Mr. Louth WORKED to find the solutions and was not afraid to call out the authorities on their inconsistencies. When I thought the case was over, Mr. Louth submitted a motion to correct the record, and improve the outcome of my inevitable penalties which were lessened thanks to the extra labor he put in on my behalf. I am very much a satisfied client and urge others to at least meet with Mr. Louth when in search of competent legal services.

Failed to communicate on all levels. I had no idea how bad it would get but "that's the system", and he works for "it", not for you. I was denied proper representation and forced to admit to crimes I did not commit as he carelessly advised it was for the best and nothing would come of it. Now having ...met other people who's life has been negatively affected by such careless handling I feel it's appropriate to say something. Unfortunately there are lawyers who will make someone out to be a criminal because its easy and profitable, so if you go with this one be prepared to lose your rights, your family, your reputation and your own ability to care because you will be left with absolutely nothing but lifelong debt, a deep sense of being violated, mislead, and forgotten. If you are innocent stay with a public defender as they will actually work out a deal that doesn't cost you everything. Be very careful as the system and everyone who works for it does not care about you they care about their paycheque.

From our initial meeting to the very end, Steven and his sons were very polite and reassuring. They make you feel like they're going to do their best to get the best outcome for you. I never felt uncomfortable with anything. Communication was never an issue and they were always on top of everything. ... I was originally charged for Driving While Under Constraint and a few other related charges. Steve was able to get the very best outcome for me and I couldn't be happier!
