Regret contacting him

We had a very time sensitive case which required prompt action. We contacted Mr. Steiner and he told us he would take our case. He asked for documents which we provided by email and by delivery. He advised us not to answer the other side until he determined the best course of action. He called an...d left emails and told us he was putting together a fee agreement and he would get it to us soon. He repeatedly told us not to be concerned we had plenty of time and he was handling it. Weeks went by and still no papers were filed on our behalf. He then started ignoring our emails and phone calls, refusing to respond at all. By this point we were too late and the other side filed for a default. It altered the course of our case and forced us into a loss. He was dishonest with us and only resounded after we went to his office and Picked up our documents he said he had read. He then changed that story and began making up lies try and justify what he did to us. Everything from computer problems, to his phone was out, to he had a new receptionist, all lies. From our experience he greatly lacks morals and ethics.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked on a multi-plaintiff, heavily litigated case with Paul as co-counsel. He is one of the smartest lawyers I know - but humble, which is a rare combination in our industry as we all know. I'd co-counsel again with him in a heartbeat and highly recommend him to clients and counsel!"

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
