Stephen C Palmer

Mr. Palmer represented me a few years ago for a couple of different domestic relations issues over a period of about 6 years. In each case, he was open about the possible results and gave solid, reasonable advice. Although emotions ran high in my dom rel case, Steve steered me on a conciliatory cour...se that helped me work with my ex-husband in a better way than I had been. Not sure if he's still doing family law, but I highly recommend him nonetheless.

With Steve you have a professional that draws upon his many years of experience to develop his strategy to insure the best possible outcome for his clients. Without going into to many details, I will say this to any man that finds himself having to contend with a divorce, your best decision is to hir...e Steve! After that sit back, let Steve do the job you hired him to do, and I can guarantee that in the end you will feel the same way I do today. Steve, I just want to thank you one more time! You are a pro and it shows in so many different ways! I pray I never find myself having to content with another divorce, if I do guys, I will absolutely have Steve representing me and you should take my advise hire Stephen C Palmer you will be glad you did!

I retained Steve as my divorce lawyer, as he was recommended to me by a friend. I have nothing but great things to say about Steve and his Paralegal. Steve knows exactly what he is doing and does not miss any details concerning alimony, property division, retirement funds etc.. Steve consistently enc...ouraged me and gave me his best advice during my entire divorce process. Steve and his team were always quick to respond to my many questions and handled my divorce with professionalism and care. I greatly appreciate all of their hard work and looking out for my best interests from start to finish. I would highly recommend Steve and his team to anyone.

I retained Newberg Law's, Stephen Palmer, to prepare and file a motion, an order, and supporting documents. Due to his negligence, the motion was never filed. When opposing counsel made me aware of my attorney’s error and I confronted Mr. Palmer regarding his failure to complete the task, he offe...red numerous and varied explanations finally blaming it on a “paralegal error.” When I asked that he remove the charges related to this admitted error, he refused. Additionally, I was billed attorney time for a settlement conference for which Mr. Palmer failed to prepare, to which Mr. Palmer arrived unprepared, which Mr. Palmer attended without properly or professionally representing my interests and providing guidance, and which concluded with unsatisfactory results due to Mr. Palmer's poor performance. I have not yet disputed several thousands of dollars which I had paid Mr. Palmer previous to learning of his negligent business practices. I continue, however, to dispute the charges associated with the most extreme negligence on his part, which only became apparent as our professional relationship developed, and after I gained the fortunate perspective of receiving alternative, competent representation. To this day Mr. Palmer continues his refusal to credit my account for any of these disputed charges. Sadly, since that time I have learned of multiple former clients of Mr. Palmer who were similarly mistreated, e.g. Mr. Palmer billed for work that is not performed, did not prepare, and yet continued to bill his clients. Each of those individuals needed to hire subsequent counsel in order for their cases to be resolved, after the resignation or termination of Mr. Palmer. Because of this, I feel obligated by principles to, at the very least, make others aware of Newberg Law's unscrupulous business practices in hopes that these words of warning may prevent the chronic ethical deficit of Stephen Palmer from further injuring more unsuspecting individuals.

I contacted and retained Stephen Palmer in a criminal matter involving a dispute between my sibling and myself related to care of my father who suffers from dementia. Stephen was friendly and knowledgeable. He stepped and stayed with me through the whole process and was able to persuade the courts to... as good an outcome as I could have hoped for. I am truly grateful I went with one of the best. Thank you Stephen.
