Stephen K Chen

If you don't believe there are good lawyers in this world that are not just out for money, then you haven't met Stephen. I needed a good lawyer for my contentious divorce and Stephen was my number one pick based off reviews and after our consult, I knew I wanted him on my side. I liked how he was... straight to the point but also offered compassion and words of encouragement when things got tough. He even told me how I should compile discovery to make it less work for him and ultimately less expensive and I really appreciated that. His billing was extremely fair for his level of work and he didn't nickel and dime everything. He also took us down the path of least resistance and most cost effective. I never had to initiate anything or reach out asking for updates because he was always on the ball and has lightening fast response times. He did everything he could to keep me out of court and he not only did that but we settled on a number that was below my max. I'm forever grateful to Stephen for guiding me through these rough 9 months and leaving me in a good spot for the next chapter of my life. If you find yourself needing a family lawyer, please do yourself a favor and meet with Stephen first. I cant recommend him enough.

Stephen Chen and his services are impeccable! When it comes to family law, there are often a lot of uncertainties, fear, and trauma surrounding the thing most precious to us all...Our children! Stephen is an extremely skilled and thorough attorney, who somehow has also maintained the ability to encom...pass empathy for the requirement to even need his services. Which alone is a foreign and lost skill with MOST high-priced attorneys! They always tend to make you feel like they're doing you a favor, even though you may be paying exasperated costs for their services! But not with Stephen! Stephen assisted my family with recovering our abducted child who had been whisked to another State; a state unwilling to consider the already sole legal and physical custody orders previously obtained in California, many years prior to the abduction. Stephen did not leave my family's side until all required legal formalities were met, and our loved one was returned. How can you put a value or determine the cost on the safe return of your abducted child? You can't! But Stephen's costs and expenses, and itemized explanation of costs, only relieved an already traumatic situation! He's just the BEST! Professional, Thorough, Communicative, Comparably Priced, Great Follow Up and Follow Through...And absolutely the attorney YOU NEED to help you with your difficult situation! Don't believe me...Just schedule your consultation and thank me later!

Divorce is not easy but hiring Stephen Chen was the best decision I made. He listened carefully to what I wanted and effectively obtained a favorable outcome for my case. No detail was overlooked in my divorce settlement and Stephen ensured my interests were protected. Stephen addressed all my concer...ns and questions, always responding promptly to emails and phone calls. He demonstrated an ability to respond with patience and provided guidance based on his professional knowledge. I would highly recommend Stephen for any area of family law!

After a brief consultation with Stephen, I knew he was the lawyer for me. He explained the separation and divorce processes and prepared me step by step as to what to expect. He provided me with valuable, honest and accurate advice. He was professional and supportive. He did not waver and maintained ...a strong work ethic throughout the process. From the beginning, I trusted him and knew my case was in good hands. Getting through a divorce is a difficult, nerve- racking and painful experience ( at least it was for me), but I knew Stephen was there for me representing my best interest. He kept me focused, answered my many questions, emails and phone calls, and effectively dealt with the endless paperwork, emails, and negotiations. I highly recommend Stephen.
