About Stephen
Biography
With over 35 years of legal experience, I am a dedicated, tenacious and creative attorney. I believe in pouring myself into everything I do and am committed to improving and maximizing my skills so that I can serve my clients to the best of my abilities.
Over the course of my career I have had the opportunity to perfect my skills inside and outside of the courtroom and truly enjoy both sides of practicing law. In my private practice I currently focus on representing injured individuals and their families in personal injury and worker’s compensation cases. I get great satisfaction from serving a diverse group of clients and regardless of the kind of case you are involved in, I promise to provide you with personalized, focused legal representation.
Outside of the office I am, first and foremost, a family man. I am a dedicated husband and father. I enjoy traveling and interacting with people who share my interests and values. I am intellectually curious, love books and am especially interested in foreign languages and the science of linguistics. In fact, I am fluent in Chinese, Japanese, French, English and Spanish.

Failed to represent
Stephen Dial was on my workers compensation case for only one month and did nothing on my case except to file a $10,000.00 LIEN on my case! Hopefully, the judges will see what he did.
