This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Stephen defrauded my 88 year old mom who has dementia

My sister who defrauded my parents of their home of 39 years in order to pay for her divorce hired this attorney to help to defraud my mom of her only asset. My mom has dementia and doesn't know what year it is or who the president is. This scumbag attorney rewrote her will that she had for over 20 y...ears. In order to defraud her out of all of her assets and her heirs of their inheritance. He and my sister are both guilty of undue influence

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
