This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

HIGHLY recommend!!

Ms. Stromfors and her legal team are excellent. I hired her to represent me in a severance matter against an abusive ex-husband—one of the most difficult and frightening experiences of my life. From the very beginning, Ms. Stromfors made the process feel manageable and far less overwhelming. She h...as an exceptional depth of knowledge in juvenile and family law, and it showed at every stage of my case. Just as important, her empathy, professionalism, and interpersonal skills made me feel supported, heard, and protected during an incredibly vulnerable time. She explained everything clearly, prepared thoroughly, and advocated fiercely for both me and my child. I am deeply grateful for her dedication and expertise. I would highly recommend Ms. Stromfors again and again to anyone needing a skilled, compassionate, and powerful advocate.

Child Trafficker

Stephanie stood outside the courtroom and told my attorney if she did not give father sole custody now, that she would put my child in foster care. She throw papers at my face while I testified and spewed a theatrical dumpster load of laws causing me and my childless harm that continue to this day. S...he has done this scam for decades and I personally know several of her victims. Class action is coming...

Thank you for your comments. Given the confidential nature of my involvement in your case, I will respond to your concerns here in a general fashion. The Family Court appoints a Best Interest Attorney (“BIA”), pursuant to Rule 10, Arizona Rules of Family Law Procedure, in cases where there are allegations of abuse or neglect by one or both parents against a child in the family court matter. The BIA does not represent either parent nor does the BIA represent the child or children. The BIA is appointed solely to represent the best interest of the child. Typical to this type of case, when someone has alleged abuse or neglect against a child, the parent or parents have one or several impediments to his or her ability to parent. As such, these impediments can make it difficult for a parent to have accurate insight regarding the possible causes of abuse or neglect to a child which, in turn, can result in a parent’s inability to act in the best interest of his or her child. Therefore, my role as a BIA is to act independently of either parent to investigate the allegations, interview the children, and collect relevant collateral information. Based upon the information I obtain, I will advocate for the child or children’s best interest in the family court matter. I can appreciate a parent may not agree with my position in a case – it is not unusual for a parent to feel defensive or in conflict with the BIA because the parent does not agree with the BIA. Please keep in mind, however, as the BIA I am required to give notice of my position, file pleadings and submit evidence just as any parent must do. I am not appointed as a mental health expert, the Court cannot consider my position as “evidence” and I do not give the Court recommendations. As such, I must litigate my position and meet the same burden of proof as any party to the action must do. Although I may take a position which appears adverse to a parent’s position, my consistent goal is for the children to have a safe and healthy relationship with both parents, to the extent each parent is able to do so. Further, I advocate for services and interventions to assist a parent to improve his or her relationship with the children. Although I have not been involved in your matter for several years, I encourage you to reach out to us to address concerns specific to your matter to the extent we can address them. In the alternative, you should express your concerns in writing to the Court in order that all parties have a forum in which to address his or her respective positions. I wish you the best of luck.

The best lawyer!

We hired Stephanie to help us with the adoption of our son. She did an outstanding job but was not our first lawyer. Our first lawyer was fired shortly after retaining her due to personality conflicts. We explained the situation to Stephanie and she was very understanding, kind, and caring as well as... being a very competent and diligent lawyer. Would definitely hire her again.

Fantastic Family Law Attorney !!!

Ms. Stromfors and her team were always incredibly informative, communicative, and reliable. Ms. Stromfors was always very honest with what to expect and did not sugar coat it. She did not set unrealistic expectations. She got me results that were better than I was hoping for. I hope I never have ...to hire a Family Law attorney again but if so, I know exactly who I am calling.

"I endorse this lawyer. Stephanie has excellent cross examination skills. I watched as she examined a county employee with questions that caused pregnant pauses prior to answers such the answers really didn't matter. Stephanie had made her point purely through her superb crafting of the questioning."
