Excellent Referral

I am a Certified Financial Planner in Scottsdale, AZ who refers business to estate planning attorneys with some regularity. Several years ago I was looking for a new estate planning attorney to refer business to as I had become very frustrated with an overall lack of responsiveness and high expense ...from those I had been referring business to. So I called every Martindale rated attorney in Scottsdale. Steve Fox was one of two attorneys in Scottsdale to return my call within a few days time. Since then I have referred clients of mine to Steve with regularity and have been extremely impressed not only with his, and his staff's, responsiveness, but also with the way Steve has priced his services. When it came time for me to get my estate plan done, I asked Steve to put it together for me. Steve is an excellent estate planning attorney. He is one of the few in Scottsdale with an LLM (which is like a special degree in tax for attorneys); remember that estate planning is really a tax code issue. He was also a former employee at one of the big national accounting firms (more tax experience). I do not know if he has a CPA as well or not. Finally, unlike most of the other estate planning attorneys in Scottsdale, Steve is relatively young (I think he is currently 40/41). Which means that he will be around for a while to keep your estate plan in order for the inevitable.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
