What an amazing and empowering experience it was working with Stephen Blackburn! I fully recommend him without reservation. Before working with Stephen, I spoke with a couple other Attorneys. It was very clear to me that Stephen was very experienced, capable, and... that it would be VERY easy and comfortable working with him. He proved me more right than I could have know! I could go on and on about how accessible he is, trustworthy, and an absolute pleasure to work with. He exceeded expectations at every step.
I put off reaching out to a lawyer for help because I had a false stigma in my mind that working with a lawyer meant that perhaps I was taking overly-aggressive action. After that first conversation, it was clear that I didn't have an advocate up to that point, and I needed one. Stephen took the reins, and my stress level dropped to ZERO. He gave us frequent and timely updates.
He educated us along the way, explained our options, and gave us the space to decide what was best for us. We never felt that we would be judged or pressured to do otherwise. Talk to Stephen, and I bet you'll see and feel what I did.
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.”

Attorney Stephen Blackburn is dedicated to helping families where a love one has been killed as a result of an accident caused by the negligence of a third party. He can help you recover the loss of companionship, loss of consortium, loss of support and other damages allowable by law. Cases involving wrongful death are sensitive and difficult for a number of reasons, but rest assured that Mr. Blackburn will endeavor to understand the issues surrounding your case, and treat you with respect.
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.
