Masters Criminal Justice Administration

Attorney Stewart Foster Salwin is Seriously a Very Atrractive Guy. . He is very considerate, Very kind, and Very generous. He handled everything for me and kept me calm while they retrieved my purse and When he had to refer me to the Family Justice Department for the Diversion Program and for the ...Court Date he answered all the questions for me because I froze up. If you want to see how Justice is done in Arizona, and you are from Out-Of-State; Hire Him. He is probably the most Mature and most Handsome/Honest/Calm Attorney you will ever meet in Arizona or Elsewhere. Kudus: Cynthia Z Kaye

Employment Investigation

I was being investigated for harassment at my work, and I felt like everybody was out to get me. I called Stewart because he seemed like an experienced attorney, and just talking to him helped put my mind at ease. I hired him to represent me during the investigation, and I am very grateful to have... had a successful outcome. I give Stewart all the credit for helping me out of a really uncomfortable position, and making me feel like I was back in control of my life.

Sexual Harassment

Stewart’s work in my case was absolutely impeccable. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Communication with Stewart was a total breeze, and he was very informative about all of the steps with in the lawsuit and made me feel comfortable. He did a wonderful job at educating me on everything I wa...s entitled to. Stewart was very sharp when it came to standing his ground and sticking to the bigger picture, with factual statements, not only following law, but with in my case as well. During mediation, Stewart made me feel very protected, he had no problem reading the situation, and would always step in to redirect when things started to become irrelevant to the case. Stewart maximized the settlement, never folded. I highly recommend using him! You won’t be disappointed!

Not only did he exceeded all expectations, he actually showed genuine concern for me and made me feel comfortable with the entire process. Highly knowledgeable in his field and was very aggres...sive dealing with my employer. However was very down to earth, patient and was easy to talk to when dealing with me and answering all my questions. Highly recommend!
