Thank you Steve Great work !! Steve is trustworthy, professional and very thorough in his work. What I found most noteworthy about Steve was his forward thinking abilities, this made him extremely valuable when getting my case dismissed. Thank you again Steve!
Stephen Robert Baxley's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have known Stephen Baxley since he was a baby prosecutor and I was a baby criminal-defense lawyer. He is a thorough, hardworking lawyer who genuinely cares about his clients."
"Some lawyers have no empathy for their clients. Steve is quite the opposite. He cares about his clients and their cases. He is a good Man."
"Steve was my supervisor when I was a prosecutor at the Harris County District Attorneys Office - we have been friends since. He cares about his clients and is an effective advocate."
"When my firm has a complex case that we need to bring an additional attorney to help handle, we call Steve Baxley as he is the best. I endorse this lawyer."
"I worked with Steve for years at the Harris County District Attorney's Office in Houston, TX. Later, I tried a highly complex murder case against him when he was a defense attorney. It was an Insanity Defense which was very difficult and complex. Steve's preparation, knowledge, and dedication was very impressive. He devoted himself to his client and it showed to the jury. He truly cares about his clients and would be an outstanding lawyer for the toughest cases imaginable."
"Very insightful and resourceful attorney."
