The Best Family
Lawyers In St. John

STEPHENS LAW FIRM, P.C.

I am attorney Julie A. Stephens of Stephens Law Firm, P.C. I am committed to helping my clients overcome whatever family law or estate and probate-related challenges they are facing. I understand how personal these matters can be. I know that it is difficult for most of us to bring others into matters that are so personal. I am honored when people choose me to help them face the legal difficulties they are facing. I repay my clients for the trust they place in me by dedicating myself to providing them with the exceptional representation they deserve.

Many lawyers focus on the cases before them rather than the lives of their clients. I know that I serve my clients best when I learn who they are and where the current situation they are in fits into the larger picture of their lives. Without that context, it is all too easy to accept a solution that may resolve the case while not doing anything to improve the person’s situation.

No matter the type of legal counsel or representation you’re looking for, our team has the expertise to handle any case.

There are endless reasons you might need a lawyer: marriage disputes, a car accident, inheritance—the list can go on and on. You wouldn’t hire a divorce lawyer to handle a malpractice lawsuit, but if the lawyer has experience with both, it’s as if you’re getting two lawyers in one.

THE FAMILY LAW OFFICE OF DIVORCE ATTORNEY CHRIS TAYLOR
