"Attorney Ruth Estep is an amazing attorney with experience in all aspects of family law.

"I have known Ruth Estep for over 7 years. We were on opposing sides re a family law matter; while we did not agree on the reasoning/approach to the various issues of this case, we did find common ground and did always respect each other, something other attys seemingly find difficult to do when there is 'litigation'. I endorse Ms. Estep as an atty who is competent and capable."
