About Stephen
Biography
With 20 trials underneath my belt, I can confidently say that I am an effective and dynamic litigator. I have successfully litigated matters from the smallest child custody matters to dividing businesses and assets worth millions of dollars. You will find me to be a thoughtful litigator, who is aggressive when necessary. I will work with you to develop a case plan to either settle matters in the early stages or to aggressively litigate the matter to trial in the most effective manner possible. I strongly believe that a case is won through proactive planning and executing this plan with precision.
My goal in any case is to make sure you are comfortabe and that your voice is heard. I strive to provide excellent communication with my clients, to timely respond to their inquiries, and to do my best to ensure this complex process is understandable. While the divorce process can be heartwrenching, I know that a successful attorney will help you through both the highs and lows of the litigation process.
