Stephen M. Orr

When you think about the best possible legal representation, you want someone with experience, someone who not only knows the law but also understands the cultural nuances of the city and county where your case will be disposed. You want the guy everybody loves at the courthouse. You want they guy wh...o shoots you straight and doesn't fluff things. Furthermore, you need unbiased, cool headed information, and Steve gives you that. If you're reading this profile because you're facing serious, felony charges, you can stop reading. Pick up the phone and call Orr and Olavson. Here are a few tips for working with steve. 1. Shut up and listen, don't talk. 2. Any further questions, see #1 Steve is not going to be your therapist, he's not there to make things happy and bright. "I can't make any more sunshine" However, he does care, you can see it in his eyes and hear it in his voice. Steve wants you to have the best possible outcome. I have worked with him for 3 years on a felony case, facing 20 years. He kicked the DA's ass, poked holes through the entire case and dang near got it dismissed. We took a plea to avoid the risk of a trial. I am on misdemeanor probation and I am forever grateful to Steve. The state of Texas took my life and put it on a string in front of me. Steve Orr cut the string, gave me life back and fought for me until the very end. Have a good time at the happy house, everyone!

Steve is a brilliant lawyer: smart, funny, world class experienced attorney that knows his way around the court system. He was everything that we hoped he would be and got the best possible result for our sons, who was facing his first felony charge-the case was dismissed. His office is well run and ...the office manager, Tylia, is lovely, very well organized and a pleasure to work with. I really am grateful that Steve was the lawyer representing our son and cannot recommend him more highly.

I was referred to Mr. Orr by a friend to handle a sexual assault allegation. Mr. Orr has thoroughly investigated the matter, and is working tactfully to provide the prosecutor all evidence and keep me from having to spend money on a jury defense. The accusing individual also formally complained to my... university, though was never a student. Mr. Orr has worked with me on that, too. The school has since dropped the complaint, even under their low "preponderance of evidence" standard. Mr. Orr is a straight talker. He has provided clear instructions for me, and an honest professionally-informed opinion on the case. His service has been a bargain and a blessing, and I look forward to recommending him for criminal defense if the chance ever occurs.

Steve came very highly recommended but we did not have that experience with him. We would have been better off using court appointed attorney and saved thousands of dollars! He threw us under the bus! I would not recommend him for any case! He kept saying how good he was and to trust him. Well trusti...ng him got 30 years in federal prison. He always acted all "buddy buddy" with they prosecutors and detectives and should have been focusing on his client. He didn't seem prepared during the trial. He should have explained the guidelines to his client! We kept asking him for our property back (he kept saying to remind him, which we did)...he never followed through on that either. So we lost all our pictures of our kids who passed away, something that can't be replaced. To him it was just a case, to us it was our lives and our children's lives. He might have been good once upon a time, but not any longer. We would not recommend him to anybody!

I would like to thank you Steve for everything you've done for me. You've exceeded all my expectations as a great person and a lawyer. You're a very trustworthy, responsive, knowledgeable, and informative lawyer, but most importantly you were very genuine and sincere. For anyone reading this review I... can promise Steve Orr will do his best for you, like he did for me. I was more than pleased with the outcome and his dedication. He goes the extra mile and such a professional office tylia is awesome she returns phone calls and is very helpful. I was facing 20 years federal and he told me the whole time to trust him and I put my whole life in his hands and I got 48 months. WOW. This man works wonders. Again I want to thank you steve for helping me through the scariest time of my life. You are the best in town.
