This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Problem? This is Whom I Call

Steven Wood has served as my legal counsel for nearly 20 years. First engaged as private counsel for plaintiff in civil litigation, and later as family counsel in estate planning and elder care issues, I have been impressed with his dedication and service in every realm. Mr. Wood allows and encourag...es client participation, assuring my voice is heard and concerns voiced through his. With integrity and a genuine passion for the law, Mr. Wood successfully represented me through depositions, mediation, and trial. He is adept in assembling legal teams, expert witnesses, and appearance in multiple counties across the state. At a time in my life when trust was difficult to extend, Mr. Wood proved himself steady by every measure, and in this continues. Thank you Steven!

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.

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.
