Stephen K Chen

I had the privilege of having Stephen as my counsel during my divorce and custody proceedings. Stephen was compassionate and professional from the very beginning. He was friendly and gracious, knowledgeable and experienced, and a superb communicator. I could tell from the first consultation that h...e genuinely cared about me and my kids, and clearly set the agenda for future proceedings, which provided hope, and helped rein in the overwhelming fear and confusion during this difficult time. Unlike some other attorneys who had insisted on going to trial and ready to fight without knowing my story and understanding my priorities, Stephen was always looking for creative solutions that would allow me and my ex to have a fair and satisfactory agreement yet maintain dignity and respect for each other. This foresight has bore fruit as I am able to have a great co-parenting relationship with my ex. Having said this, Stephen has my total trust had we had the need to go to trial. In fact, it might have been due to Stephen’s impartial and articulate dissection of our case that persuaded my ex to pursue a friendly settlement. Stephen always had the big picture and long-range perspective in view. This was particularly assuring when at times when I was overwhelmed by pressure and threats. Stephen provided the empathetic yet sensible legal advice and “pep-talks” to get me back to my sound mind. I hope you do not have to go through the pain and suffering of a broken family, but if you are, don’t go through it alone. I wholeheartedly recommend Stephen Chen to be your advocate.

Stephen Chen handled my case with great skill and put my worries at ease. He is very responsive to inquiries and simplifies complicated matters through email or over the phone. Truly a trustworthy and professional divorce & family lawyer that I would recommend to all my friends and family. He has con...tinued to help and provide me with good counsel, even after my initial matter had been settled.

The other reviews here perfectly describe my experience with Stephen Chen. He is trustworthy and I have complete confidence in him which gave me such a peace during what is such a stressful time. It just felt good knowing he was handling things and was taking care of everything. I had another lawy...er before him that I was not happy with at all. Once I switched to Mr. Chen it took a burden off my shoulders. He is easy to talk to and really listens. He also is very informative. Part of the stress came from not knowing how everything worked and what could possibly happen and why. He explains everything in an easily understandable and calming way.
