Great experience with Stephen!

My husband and I had a rather unfortunate experience with another attorney while trying to obtain our Wills and Power of Attorney documents. We went to Stephen for assistance, and he was very empathetic to our situation and knowledgeable about what needed done to ensure we had the correct documents ...in place. We are really wishing we had just gone to Stephen to get things done right the first time around -it would have saved us a headache! Stephen and everyone we dealt with at his firm were extremely friendly, professional, and responsive. I highly recommend Stephen, and will certainly go to him for any future legal needs. Thank you!

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.
