"I have learned that it is critical to listen to my clients and hear their main concerns. Then I can offer an overview of the law that addresses their concerns in the proper perspective. My domestic clients are fraught with emotionally charged troubles, so it is important for me to get a clear picture before mapping out legal strategies. In addition, my corportate clients need a distinct plan of action, and that is also best determined through careful consideration of their concerns and issues. I am committed to result oriented policies. We are renowned for an exemplary work product and a zealous represention of our clients, and I am proud to uphold that tradition"
Stephen works with clients on matters related to domestic relations and family law, business and franchising, personal injury, and healthcare.
