My history came back to bite me.
Stefanie is honest and compassionate as well as timely with her clients. I was having to deal with a felony charge from 31 years ago…. Stefanie heard my story and proceeded to hit it out of the park. I should add that I needed things expedited, Stefanie wasted no time in working with the prosecutor in getting it done…I am no longer a felon!! Best call I ever made. It takes time and money to get things done but she is very reasonable and went the extra mile for me. Thank you, I am blessed to have found you!

Vacate Charges
Stefanie was referred to me from a lawyer I’ve used in the past and was highly recommended for my situation. During our first consultation i could tell she was the right one for my case, she immediately started to think of a strategy and how we would be able to vacate both charges. Stefanie is easy to communicate with and very responsive to email and phone calls, and she was great with updates on the process. Stefanie helped me successfully vacate both charges off my recorded. I would recommend Stefanie to anyone needing a solid lawyer.

Awesome work on a difficult case!
Stefanie took on a difficult expungement case for me. All along it wasn’t looking like it would rule in my favor as it was an uphill battle. She spent a lot of time researching and reaching out to her legal network. She was able to provide the necessary, and clear, support for the law and due to her hard work and dedication along with a Judge who was willing to hear the case and consider it I won!
Stefanie is compassionate, dedicated and tenacious in her fight for justice.
I can’t thank her enough and highly recommend her to anyone!

Very professional and thorough attorney
I worked with Stefanie for sealing my court record. I met her once and she took care of the rest with utmost professionalism. She was on top of getting court dates, showing up at court on time, having all the documents ready and eventually helping me get the desired result…
She even provided other resources to help me out. That’s what you need from an experienced attorney… I would hire Stefanie without blinking an eye if god forbid I need legal help. I do recommend her to anyone who is looking for s good attorney who really cares for her client

Stefanie is incredible.
This is a super late review, but I just wanted to say how incredible Stefanie was to work with. She was able to take on my request immediately and had things sorted and submitted immediately after we agreed to services and cost. The process was entirely paperwork and having it go through the court system so it was a lot of checking in and updating with no update, but she was always super responsive and so pleasant to work with.
At the end, it was resolved exactly how she said it would be. I’m so grateful and thankful, and would never hesitate recommending her.
