About Stephen
Biography
I am an experienced litigator in both civil and criminal law for over fifteen (15) years. I have prevailed at trial in numerous felony cases in which the defendant was wrongfully accused. I have experience and expertise in civil rights, and I have brought numerous cases against law enforcement agencies for police misconduct in which I have obtained settlements for my clients. I have obtained and collected six-figure judgments for small business owners in contract dispute cases. I have successfully represented clients in divorce matters, some of which proceeded to trial, in which large marital estates were at issue and/or where custody and parent-time issues were fiercely contested. I have obtained six-figure settlements in personal injury cases. I have brought lawsuits against major oil companies and I understand oil, gas, and mining am also seasoned and skilled in motion and appellate practice. I am currently in-house counsel for Mile High Contracting, a leading communications utility installation contractor for the Wasatch Front. I am available on a limited basis to other select clients for litigation or consultation.

Negotiating with the Prosecutor from Hell!
Steve Spencer was attentive, creative, and prompt. He was able to negotiate a deal with the prosecutor from hell. He was able to get me the best deal I could have hoped for in a very unfortunate set of circumstances. I would highly recommend Mr. Spencer for any of your legal issues.
