Expert in the field

Mr Nordhoff is reliable and experienced, and handled my complicated case exceptionally well. His cost is well worth his expertise. He’s efficient, very respectful, and very knowledgeable. I am beyond, and forever, grateful for Mr Nordhoff. His patience, his confidence, and his understanding meant ev...erything to me, all while maintaining a very calm demeanor throughout my entire case!

#1 Divorce Lawyer in Orange County!

Steve Nordhoff is the #1 divorce lawyer and best choice in all of Orange county for family law! Choosing an expert divorce lawyer is not easy in a sea of choices in Orange County, but I can assure you Steve Nordhoff is the RIGHT answer. I did my due diligence when picking my lawyer and interviewed ...several- but the minute I met Steve his expertise, confidence, skills, and professionalism outshone the rest by far! Steve Nordhoff is not only a strategic genius the way he navigated this whole process, but he did it with such grace and still was able to maintain professionalism w opposing counsel. Mr. Notdhoff and Maria were VERY efficient on getting back to my calls, emails, and multitude of questions I asked along the way. Steve really helped me to maintain composure and confidence throughout this intense process, due to his high-level of experience, confidence and strategy he guided me along this process with. Steve Nordhoff is priced very fairly and doesn’t waste anyone’s time. I will refer anyone and everyone I know who needs the BEST divorce lawyer to Mr. Nordhoff!!

Grateful to have hired Mr. Nordhoff

I entrusted Mr. Nordhoff and his law firm to represent me in my divorce and child custody evaluation. From start to finish, Mr. Nordhoff was knowledgeable and calm. His guidence, experience and professionalism, helped me get through one of the most bitter and unstable times in my life with grace and ...dignity. I, unequivocally, recommend him and his law firm.

Great Divorce Attorney

Steve Nordhoff did a great job dealing with my angry, intimidating ex husband. He was patient and professional. He was able to get me great spousal support and was fair in his dealings with both sides. He was honest and hard working. I was very impressed with his research into the retirement accounts... my ex had. He gave me great advice. I would recommend him to any of my friends.

Divorce

Steve was referred to me by a Real Estate Attorney that I've known for over 20 years. Since then I have referred him to a handful of colleagues and friends. All, including myself, have been more than satisfied with his services. Steve's knowledge of divorce, finances and etc., are far beyond most att...orneys. Prior to hiring Steve, I had interviewed 3 other divorce attorneys, Steve was by far the most competent and knowledgeable. Divorce is a stressful situation, so when you as a client are not being level headed, he does a great job of keeping you on the right tract. Lastly, I always felt like his advise was based upon what was best for me as his client vs what may have been more advantageous for him. I have and I will continue to refer him to anyone who is in need of a good attorney.
