Compare these against any other firm you're considering — most attorneys have only two or three themes reviewers consistently return to.
How we compiled this: CrashStory aggregates public Google reviews, Colorado crash records from CDOT and local agencies, and firm-provided profile data. We do not endorse any firm. Review intelligence scores are derived from automated sentiment and theme analysis of public reviews — treat them as one signal among many, not a verdict.

within a minute of typing my information and requesting a consult i recieved a phone call and he helped point me in the right direction for VA benefits. good guy who likes to help
This man charged me $2,000 and didn’t do nothing or submit any paperwork to the court at all! On the day of of court I sat there and waited and my court time went by. The judge asked me to go out In the hall and call him, so I did over and over. Nothing no response, no answer. Needless to say he called me later in the afternoon and said he was in a car accident on the way to court that morning. The case was dropped and he refunded me $500 back and said he was charging me $1500 for all the paperwork he did but didn’t submit. He’s a scam artist not an attorney
This dude claims I was never a client just like he claims with everyone else who leaves him 1 star reviews. I was recommended to him from Fausto’s Bail Bonds located in Temecula. Fausto was recently in trouble with the law over fraud. Seems crazy this guy was recommended by him. I would have just left my 1 star review, but I noticed he always resorts to “you were never my client” whenever someone gives him unfavorable reviews. It’s all so very convenient for him. Dude was a trash attorney when I had him. The guy does not take criticism well at all and views everything as a personal attack. I witnessed him explode at someone else in the court house for “standing too close to him”

Stephen helped me over the phone with a retaliatory restraining order placed on my daughter after she received a restraining order on an obsessed client. Stephen gave me clear and concise instructions on how to respond and what to file. I did exactly as Stephen instructed me and my daughter prevailed and won! I would strongly recommend using Stephen’s services for any court battle you are facing! Thank you SO much Stephen!

Stephen is an amazing lawyer. The Bible taught me to trust my lawyer. Stephen is a great lawyer and very trust worthy. I may have not been rich but he still worked with me. I appreciate that. I learned so much about my case and my rights. I see him as a great lawyer who is respected in the community and very reliable and responsible when dealing with communication and honesty on the cases. Stephen goes the extra mile. Good men are hard to find these days but you can count on Stephen to be there for you. I would recommend him to anyone who needs legal counsel.
