Steven’s practice focuses on family law and the crossover issues presented between family law and his other areas of expertise. Now in his third decade of practice, Steven’s legal experience includes family law, civil litigation, trusts and estates, conservatorships and guardianships, bankruptcy, real estate, and alternative dispute resolution. The overwhelming majority of his cases, however, involve child custody and visitation, support, property and debt division in divorce, and post-judgment litigation of these issues.
A native of New York City, Steven earned his undergraduate degree from Brooklyn College and his law degree from the University of Miami. He is admitted to practice in California and before various federal courts in California and Florida.
In 2001, Steven obtained a post-graduate Master of Laws (LL.M.) degree from the University of San Diego, focusing on the law of taxation. This course of study focuses on tax planning, analysis, and litigation, and has proven invaluable to his family law clients and as a resource to other attorneys at Cage and Miles.
Steven is an active member of the San Diego County Bar Association’s family law section and the San Diego Family Law Bar Association. An endurance road cyclist, mountain biker, and motorcyclist, Steven spends most weekends on two wheels enjoying San Diego’s roads and trails, often cycling with the Challenged Athletes Foundation Cycling Club - an organization that provides opportunities and support for athletes with physical challenges. When off the bikes, Steven enjoys time with his wife (a pediatric nurse), their children, and the family’s rescued Labrador/Coonhound mix, in search of a decent bagel or slice of pizza.

Wish I would have handled things myself.
This very simple divorce that cost me $5000.00. Wish I would have handled it myself. I don't feel the legal given was any thing more than I could have done for myself.
Cindy, although disappointed by your review, I am relieved to learn that you were dissatisfied not with my professionalism, integrity, competence, or responsiveness – but rather only with the cost of the services provided. A two-star review may be how you feel about the fees you paid but I don’t think it’s a fair representation of our firm’s work or the results achieved. I understand that it’s sometimes difficult to see the value of legal services – especially when a case goes smoothly and your lawyer doesn’t have to enter “warrior mode” (this coming from an attorney who has also been a family law client). Sometimes the mere presence of counsel makes things run more smoothly than they otherwise would. Imagine a store owner closing up shop for the day and saying “I don’t know why I paid that security guard so much – nobody tried to rob us today!” I’ve reviewed all of your billing and have found nothing unnecessary. I’d be happy to talk with you offline if there is a substantive aspect of the representation that you feel was unsatisfactory.
