Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"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."
