Stephen K Chen

Prior to retaining Stephen Chen, I worked with three other attorneys through a divorce and just shy of a decade of subsequent post-judgment motions, during which time my custody agreement grew steadily so lopsided that it ultimately became barely manageable. In just one action and court appearance, ...Stephen Chen was able to clearly present a fair justification for addressing these inequities, yielding a result that leaves me much more confident that I will not be blocked from playing a meaningful role in my son's life--which is really all that matters. The cliche I heard most commonly about lawyer selection was that you should find a "pitbull," but in my experience what you need in fact is a lawyer who can exercise tact and discretion, but can bust out a little pitbull when needed. Stephen Chen neatly struck this balance for me, and I will continue to work with him in the future.

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.
