Very personable lawyer

I had a potential claim that I needed a consultation on, and a lot of law firms that I contacted were just passing up on my case after the initial intake, yet Stephen took time in order to speak with me and understand my case. He gave me insights that I haven't considered before, and also gave me rec...ommendations on how to proceed that regarded my goals for my case. Thank you Stephen

Smart, Honest, Compassionate

Stephen helped me last year with a legal issue. It usually takes time for an attorney to understand your situation and the intricacies of your case. I was really impressed with how quickly Stephen understood the salient points of my case. That combined with his years of experience, negotiation and co...mmunication skills helped resolve my case to the best possible conclusion for me. Stephen is also VERY empathetic. I never felt I was dealing with a 'business man' throughout our engagement. Thanks Stephen!

Brilliant, Honest, and Astute Lawyer

I would highly recommend Stephen if you are looking for a knowledgeable, prompt and a honest lawyer.  I have utmost confidence in his abilities and would hire him in a heartbeat to represent me in any future legal dispute. I met Stephen after being put in a bind in a legal dispute by another firm wh...o mishandled my case. He was a breath of fresh air in his pragmatic approach to the case. He understood the essence of case instantly, applied his legal knowledge and years of experience to give honest options to resolve the case. He was mindful of my legal needs and financial cost in all decision making. I was fortunate to find Stephen. He is my savior. He is well versed with employment law, has superb negotiating and communication skills.  He is a genius with numbers but at the same time is empathetic and understands emotional implications of any dispute. He combines these skills well and helps you make the right decision to resolve a dispute. For these reasons I would recommend him without reservation.
