DISMISSED!

I never thought that I would need a lawyer but when I did, I researched and decided to go with Atty. Bloom. The initial phone call and office visit made me feel not alone. He was sympathetic to my dilemma. He’s very knowledgeable and attentive to my concerns. I am not much of a writer but I feel ...that people need to know what a great lawyer Atty Bloom is. My case got DISMISSED!

No worries with Steven helping you

I never had to court for my offense. Steven took care of everything, got my case dismissed, and put me at ease throughout the entire process. Thanks Steven!

Promising Lawyer!

Steve is AMAZING! From the start he was supportive, reassuring, and sounded the most promising of multiple lawyers I've discussed my situation with. He was able to get my six-month DUI class reduced to a three-month class with absolutely no community service. He was also able to get my fine reduc...ed as well! Mr. Bloom has great connections in terms of getting your SR-22 at a reasonable price so you could definitely ask him for some guidance. He was reliable, showed up to my two court dates, and handled everything perfectly for me. I'm grateful to have had Mr. Bloom on my team and would not know what I would have done without him! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

"When I first started practicing law, I was lucky enough to land a job at the same defense firm as Steve. I shadowed him in court to learn the ropes and was immediately impressed by his knowledge of the law. Even more impressive, however, was how he seemed to be everyone’s best friend. From other lawyers to the judge, to court personnel, everyone was always happy to see Steve. This ability to connect with people is extremely rare; particularly in the legal profession. I have witnessed Steve work miracles for his clients time and again, and have had the good fortune of working with him on a number of cases. Whenever I need advice or a second opinion on a case, my first call is always to Steve. If you need an attorney in Orange County, stop looking and do what I would do if I ever found myself on the wrong side of the law…call Steve."

"I have known Steve for many years. We worked together at a criminal defense firm before we both started are own firms. I personally witnesses Steve try two serious sex cases with multiple counts. I was very familiar with the facts as I consulted with him on one case and the other I referred to him. Steve got NOT GUILTY verdicts in both cases along with some hung counts that were dismissed. It was my professional opinion having practiced for almost 20 years that the evidence was overwhelmingly against Steve's clients- BUT HE STILL WON! Steve knows when to be aggressive and when to be amicable when litigating a case. He is well liked and respected by the Judges, the district attorneys and fellow attorneys throughout the county. If I got in trouble I would hire Steve!"
