"I have over 35 years of experience in the Trial Courts of the Commonwealth, but I have come to learn that attempting to reach resolution short of trial is usually better for all concerned. In some cases, resolution is not possible, in which event I feel comfortable in the court room based on careful case preparation."

Steve is a member of the domestic relations and litigation departments. His work is primarily concentrated on divorce cases, but he also handles personal injury cases and does a significant amount OUI defense work each year.
