Stephen Joseph Horvath

I hired Mr. Horvath on a strong recommendation from my professional association representatives. Mr. Horvath typically specializes in Employment and Labor law, specifically with peace officers, and government employees, but he is also very skilled in criminal law as it pertains to people in the previ...ously stated occupations. Based on the charges as filed, I was facing the possibility of 8-18 years in state prison. Mr. Horvath identified several areas of concern with the charges initially filed against me. He invested a great deal of attention to the strategy he would employ and spent several hours during our consultation explaining his approach. Once I retained him, his communication was excellent. He promptly responded to my questions and concerns via telephone and email. On the day of my arraignment, Mr. Horvath spoke to the DA and conveyed his concerns with the charges. Both gentlemen spoke at length. At the end of the day, Mr. Horvath worked out a deal with the DA that allowed me to plea to the misdemeanor offense and pay a fine. He was careful enough to consider the impact this would have on my employment with the government. In the end, the outcome was extremely favorable considering the severity of the initial charges. This was a victory for both of us. I am forever thankful to Mr. Horvath for his kindness and his skill. He is an excellent attorney and I recommend him to anyone who needs the best representation.
