Highly skilled with over 30 years of experience and can sort out the facts extremely quickly. No BS or games from her! Consider your self lucky if she takes your case.

Look no further than Ms. Stephen for a smart lawyer with integrity who is committed to the excellent representation of her clients. I have referred many friends to Ms. Stephen and the feedback has always been excellent. Words like "caring", a "great communicator", "diligent", "patient", "determined", "beyond my expectations" are phrases that have been used to describe Ms. Stephen by these friends. They have all told me how fortunate they feel to have been referred to Ms. Stephen and I have no hesitation in continuing to refer friends to her.

LS was lawyer for abusive spouse, after I fled & he started divorce. He used the system to torment & try to control, then died so it became estate matter. LS’s firm has “creative, tailor-made legal solutions”. LS presents well in court. Unwilling to negotiate in good faith or follow usual protocol, LS prolonged case & escalated costs. Using the system, LS continued bullying +1½ yrs after spouse’s death. A lawyer +20 yrs, she can’t seem to properly draft an agreement. LS made up for lower hrly rate by charging time more than 1x, charged for asst, charged for consulting w/ jr lawyer, charged % of inflated estate value, etc. Their Probate Appl was rejected several times, though they drafted the will. LS would not place house proceeds in interest-bearing trust acct (we lost 15 mos interest). Contrary to web claims, I don’t believe LS worked in best interests of her clients + she was abrasive/disrespectful to my lawyer. If she’s opposing counsel, consider Case Mgmt Judge.
