About Stephen

Mr. Blackburn started his own personal injury practice in 2003, having worked for one of the largest personal injury firms in the state prior to law school.  Through that prior experience, Mr. Blackburn learned that injury victims need more than an initial interview and a case manager to help them through the painful process of rehabilitation after suffering serious injury from a car, motorcycle or truck accident. When you hire my firm, I work for you, and with you, every step of the way through recovery, settlement or if necessary, trial.

Accordingly, Mr. Blackburn has developed a policy and practice where he personally fields every phone call that comes into his office, personally meets with those who want to learn more about their rights, and continues thereafter to communicate on a regular basis with those who become clients.

Mr. Blackburn continues this practice today and enjoys the direct and regular contact he has with his clients. While there are occasions when Mr. Blackburn simply cannot answer the phone because he is either in court or with another client, you'll find his approach and "open door" policy refreshing.

Away from the office, Mr. Blackburn is married and has five children, with whom he enjoys exploring the Owyhee Desert on ATVs, geocaching, camping, fishing, shooting and most other forms of outdoor activity.

Review Stephen Blackburn

Very Helpful and Diligent Lawyer

Posted by

I was involved in a motorcycle accident in 2008 that changed my life as I knew it. I hired Mr. Blackburn to help me and couldn't have made a better decision. Over the last couple of years, Stephen has become a friend, but has maintained his professionalism with respect to the work that needed to be done on my case. He made sure to check up on me during times he knew were especially hard on me - listening to my predicaments and helping me to see the alternatives when I couldn't see them myself. Stephen never gave me false hopes, but gave me a realistic outlook on my case. My situation from the start seemed very bleak at receiving any kind of settlement at all, and I pretty much wrote it off. Stephen did not. He was very diligent and persistent that I not give up because he wasn't going to, and after two years Stephen came through for me, getting large medical debts waived or reduced, and enough of a settlement to get me back on my feet again. He even reduced his fee to help me out, telling me that I needed it more than he did. That's a rare quality. I have no doubt that I made the right phone call when I called Stephen Blackburn and I will always recommend him to others who find themselves in hard times after getting injured through no fault of their own.”
Stephen Blackburn's response: Very kind of you, sir. I trust things will continue to go well for you!
