What some clients have said:
“You are the only lawyer I know who returns phone calls.” ~ D.M.
Steve helped us “after we were involved in a motorcycle accident. We could not have been more pleased with the way he handled every detail in over a year long process. He was always available and returning calls and e-mails promptly. We had to meet together a number of times and as we were unable to get out of the house due to injuries he came to our house. Steve was always reassuring and kept us from worrying. We could tell he was concerned about us as people, not just clients. We were very pleased with the outcome and would recommend Steve to anyone who needed help in a similar situation.” ~ Vernon & Loretta R. (2017)
“I think very highly of you both. You helped me immensely and am very grateful. The respect you exude for both yourselves and the client is immeasurable and one rarely seen. I was able to have questions answered consistently and with clarity.” ~ Anna D. (2018 Estate Planning)
“I remember what a mess I was when I came in for Good Samaritan’s help to file [for divorce]. I did not have peace. As soon as you shared your perspective, at the end of the meeting, I had the peace of God, a true indication of God’s will. I am utterly amazed as I consider the work He has done and the work He continues to do.” ~ Female GSA client (Family Law)
“I want to conclude by saying your Christian thoughts have opened my mind to be more charitable in life and I have prayed many times over about my [relative] and what we are doing. Thank you for your inspiration to me . . .” (2019 Peacemaking case)
“Thank you, God, for Steve and Pam and their relentless laser biblical focus.” (2019 text message the day after a marriage crisis consult)
“Thanks for all you are doing. Very glad to have you in the partnership of working through everything.” (2019 Peacemaking case)
“I have been thinking every second about the experience that led to the outcome I witnessed Monday. Look at God. I would like to express my appreciation for your amazing expertise in family law and families overall. Your humility is admirable, as well as your ability to bring togetherness and order to a situation that appeared helpless is inspiring.” ~ L.T. (2015)
“Steve, your knowledge of the Word, your expertise in peacemaking, and your relentless insistence on dealing with the heart are worth plenty of money all by themselves.” ~ Pastor Christopher Gudmundsson, First Baptist Church, Dundalk
“You’ve been our lawyer, teacher, friend & brother in Christ. You’ve helped us see our Lord in the midst of the darkness. You’ve helped us find courage in our difficulties through setting our hearts on eternity with Him. Honestly, we would not have made it this far without a godly and biblical perspective. I can now praise God that I am not afraid and am seldom anxious. I thank God that you have honored Him as you helped direct us to God, His truth, His word, and His love. You’ve reminded us that we already have far more than we deserve . . . We certainly did not deserve to have an attorney who would guide us as a counselor, shepherd, exhorter, teacher, brother, friend and on and on.” “You really are like a missionary to those of us who face complicated, life devastating circumstances . . . Thank you, thank you for loving God enough to come into our messiness and show us to the purity of Christ.” ~ S.S.
“I am just blown away by your compassion, your humbleness, your passion for marriages but more so your desire to redirect me to the way God would want me to think and act.” ~ C.R.
“I want to say ‘THANK YOU’ for all that you have done. All of the thoughts, words, and prayers have been and still are welcomed and appreciated. You may never know how much you have taught me and how much of a positive influence you have been on my life and the life of others that come in contact with me as I walk the path of life. I have benefited and others will benefit from the example you have been. My life and the lives of my family are being enriched on a daily basis as a result of the work of the Lord in your life and how you are living out what the Lord has taught you.” ~ E.L.
“In the early hours of my conflict, you reminded me of basic, biblical truths, which my mind has always accepted, but with the pressures of the moment caused temptation for compromise. I know, day-in and day-out the Lord puts you in these moments with each whom you serve. You served me and my family, both gracefully and with grace.” ~ G.B.
“I appreciated your help last week and the boldness with which you broached the subject of God . . . I thank God for you and the doors He has opened through your ministry . . . I pray that God would prosper your reconciliation ministry for the marriages ravaged by sins and grant you much harvest in terms of souls won and generations of families preserved.” ~ T.S.
“I was discouraged and depressed. So I called you for advice. You didn’t hesitate to help. You were especially nice. I want to thank you very much for advice you gave me. You gave me scriptures I should read, which helped tremendously. You really show the love of God in each thing you say and do. I love you for your kindness. God bless you your whole life through.” [A note from a client whose only contact was a phone conversation]
“I belong to [NAME OF CHURCH REMOVED] and they said I should get a divorce and then they referred me to you and then you said I didn’t have any biblical cause and my husband and I went to a FamilyLife marriage conference that saved our marriage and I never felt comfortable in leaving him after I had talked to you. I really thank you for that.” ~ K.T.
“THANK YOU for all your help. You have no idea how much you are appreciated. You are the BEST!!!!” ~ W.S.

“I am so glad that I found you. I wish there were more like you out there.” ~ J.G.

“I am still slowly rebuilding my life and every day I am thankful for what I do have. You were a big part of that.” ~ V.F.

“Thank you so much for your help and wisdom as I was going through this divorce. And thank you for your love, support, kindness and encouragement. It would be a lot harder without people like you.” ~ A.H.
“I am most thankful to God from the first day He placed you in my life. Thanks for being more than a lawyer when I needed one, thanks for being my Christian friend.” ~ F.N.
