About

I was formerly a narcotics and vice squad officer in the Spartanburg County Sheriff’s Department. I worked my way in to homicide investigations before I retired from law enforcement. When I was 43 I went to law school, ventured over to the other side of the courtroom, and I now represent defendants. I was recently interviewed by Fox Carolina's Sharon Johnson becuase of my background with the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Department, including serving in homicide investigations. You can view that interview here: http://www.foxcarolina.com/clip/12890259/homicide-expert-weighs-on-on-kohlhepp-investigationBecause of my background, I know first hand people need defending. Just because you are charged with a crime doesn't mean you are guilty. You should not handle your case without the help of an attorney. Please feel free to call me on my cell any time at 864-809-1226. I will actually answer your call!

My child was charged with something that could have been his life in prison. But Steve Denton worked so hard for 18 long hard months and got it to 10 years ( bitter sweet ) I am so so hurt but it is so much better than it could have been . But this man saved my child's life . I am so grateful the world could not even understand just grateful I truly am I will always say a prayer for this man to be able to help someone else in their darkest times . I always said spartanburg courthouse is just like middle school with their clicks and who knows who . But this man right here was sent to us in our darkest times . And I am forever grateful. May God bless this man many times over the limit.. Steve you are a good man thanknyou from the very bottom of my heart ❤.

Steve Denton represented my daughter this week. She is already home and we are forever grateful and feel really lucky we picked the right one! He cared about her struggles and our family's needs. He showed empathy for our situation and truly worked hard to help her come home. He was worth every single penny. It isn't very often you find a lawyer who really cares about your feelings and what happens to your loved one. I cannot thank Steve enough. If you want someone who cares, hire this man! He will listen to you and your family and fight for their freedom. My baby is home because of Steve!

Outstanding attorney. Very professional but someone I could relate too. Knows both sides of the law. Excellent communication! This is who you want on your side. Not only was he my lawyer but also became my friend.

Steve Denton came highly recommended to me by a variety of people, including other attorneys, police officers, and private citizens. His friendly and professional demeanor made me comfortable from the start with the legal process. He successfully represented me and had a major, positive impact on my life. I cannot thank him enough. There is no attorney I would trust more with a case than Steve Denton.

Stephen is as good as the come. I knew I could always count on him to answer his phone no matter the time day or night. Stephen always went out of his way to give me the best advice possible. During the whole process I not only felt as if I had a top attorney on my side but also a good friend that was always willing to go above and beyond the call of duty to guarantee my success. My career my reputation and my ability to provide for my family was all on the line and Stephen worked for the best outcome possible in my criminal case. I have used him twice in the last few years and I've yet to be disappointed. I owe everything to this man. I highly recommend Stephen he's the best you'll find.

I had a case at work and Mr Denton was recommended by several coworkers. Mr Denton had substantial prior knowledge with cases similar to mine and was absolutely wonderful. He’s a straightforward “tell you how it is” lawyer and will not steer you wrong in his advice. Mr Denton was also compassionate and took my worried calls well after 9pm and while on vacation. Highly recommend.

Steve Denton is a great lawyer and was a tremendous help to me. With Steve's help I was able to turn my life around--I now have a full-time job and I'm working to secure my successful future. In my opinion, Steve saved my life. I would recommend him to anyone."

Steve has gone above and beyond for myself. I will give you one piece of advice, don't lie to him. I have used him 3 times and have not once been disappointed. Til this day, if I had not hired him I would be in jail. He literally will go out of his way and help you in whatever way possible, not only legally but as a person as well. He has saved my life, literally. And I could never thank him enough!
