Derek Steenson Attorney At Law

He’s a very good lawyer with no doubt thank you

Derek handled everything professionally, thoroughly and even seemed to have some favor inside the courtrooms. He has obvious experience, he’s polite respectful and considerate to both his clients and in how he carries himself professionally and in front of the judge. He was a big help to me when I needed it , 5 stars.

Edit 1; First of all, I appreciate your explanatory comments. However, I would like to clarify my concerns regarding how my case was handled. If the evidence was incorrectly sent to you and you were unable to obtain it because it had already been deleted, I believe, as my lawyer, it was your responsibility to question why my rights were not granted to me within the required timeframe. Leaving the country at that time was necessary, as I was financially broke and facing other difficult circumstances, as you were aware. While I was still present, you never spoke positively either to me or to my father. From my perspective, this appeared to stem from certain judgments you held about me and my case. Since then, I have done everything possible to prove my innocence and demonstrate my efforts to return. All I expected from you was stronger support given the circumstances. However, from the moment you saw me, I felt that you had stopped defending me — something also reflected in your emails. I do think you are a good person and a valuable member of the community. Still, that does not change the fact that you treated me as though I was at fault, and your actions reflected this judgment. I have kept screenshots of every call I made to you, along with every promise you made — such as filing motions — that were not completed within the timeframes we discussed. I am prepared to share these records. I understand your work requires significan t time, attention, and individual care. However, I felt that you judged me rather than defending me, which made me feel like I was just a number to you that you got paid. Even in the worst possible outcome, knowing that you were fighting for me and my case would have meant a lot, but I never felt that support. You mentioned that you never disclosed any sensitive information. Yet, I had given you specific details about how this arrest had severely impacted my life, expecting you to use this knowledge to defend my rights further. I also explicitly asked you not to share this with anyone and to keep me updated on your actions. Despite this, I later discovered that you did share this information — something I only realized months later when I requested copies of my documents. In one of your emails, it became clear that this information had been disclosed. I intend to email you directly about this matter, and I would like to hear your explanation. Please understand, I have no intention of blaming you for outcomes that were beyond your control. My concern lies in how you approached me and my case. Deep down, you know how you reacted, and I hope you are at peace with that and can stand behind it with confidence. ---------------- Original; I debated myself for a long time whether to write this review, but I believe sharing my experience may help others in similar situations. While I appreciate Mr. Steenson’s personality, I found his ability to defend his clients’ rights and exercise sound judgment seriously lacking. He showed little empathy, understanding, or concern for my legal protection. For example, he once told me he would file a motion for my case—only to admit months later that he had forgotten to do it. During his representation, he failed to obtain critical video evidence that would have helped prove my innocence. The footage sent wasn’t even mine, and despite this error, he couldn’t retrieve the correct one. That alone was a major failure. I often felt unheard, unprotected, and dismissed. A lawyer should advocate for their client, but instead, he disclosed sensitive information I had shared with him, which added to my sense of betrayal. Rather than trusting and defending me, he showed indifference and inaction, even though he knew there were contradictions in my case and that I was being treated unfairly. One day, when the truth comes to light and I prove my innocence, I wonder if Mr. Steenson will be able to say, “I defended my client’s rights.” Because to me, it felt like he was more concerned with getting paid than with seeking justice.

Derek Steenson, he’s the best lawyer that I ever had! He’s a true warrior in that court room. And outside the courtroom, he a decent person who treats you like family. And one thing for certain you can count on is: He will keep it real and true with you! And if you keep it real with him; I will bet my last dollar that you would walk out of that court room feeling like a winner! And if you don’t win the case all the way, the deal he will gets you; made still carry the same good feeling results as if you still won your case. Thanks, Derek for saving me twice! from your friend William Wilkerson

We worked with Derek and one of his plaintiffs over the course of the past several months. He was truly a pleasure to correspond with. Great communication skills. Quick to follow up. Hope to be able to assist him and his clients again in the future!

Great attorney. Very straight forward and does exactly as he says. Would recommend to anyone.

This law firm risks losing all of its clients due to their receptionist’s unprofessional behavior. The receptionist is rude, interrupts conversations, and even yells at people simply because he is not in a good mood

Did not like the receptionist’s attitude.

Outstanding representation kept me updated made my case a lot easier on my mental

Mr. Steenson was a great lawyer I will trust him .
