Steve and Jo (his secretary) have been the best money spent during my divorce. They both guided me along the way and made the whole process go great. Words cant describe what they did for me. If you want a lawyer to go to battle for you, who is on your side Steve is the best. He is worth every penny I paid and more. He is competitive and wants to win for you. Best attorney, hands down. Cant say enough.

Steve came recommended on an anonynous source on an internet forum. I'm so glad I called him. He stepped after I decided that the first attorney I hired just wasn't competent. When I hired Steve, the difference was night and day. Steve asks questions to make sure he knows what your concerns are. He explains clearly and concisely what you need to know, how the system works, what the OTHER attorney is probably thinking. Long story short, he knows what he's doing. Also his assistant Jo Ellen is excellent as well. Communication happens quickly and clearly. Steve and Jo allowed me to relax and trust that things were being handled as best they could. Their excellence took a lot of the anxiety about divorce out of the equation for me. My wife's attorney was at a large firm in downtown Cleveland. So was my first attorney. Both of them were (relatively) incompetent especially when compared to Steve. Don't believe that because an attorney is part of a large firm and they have beautiful offices, that this translates into competence. It doesn't. If you want to feel confident that you're getting the best representation available, hire Steve August. He's tough, fair, supremely knowledge, affable, patient, and will always keep you informed as to exactly what's going on. If I could give him 10 stars, I would.

I was referred to Steve by another lawyer and was well-supported throughout the difficult process of divorce. He and his paralegal Jo are honest, straightforward, extremely professional and competent. Steve is well-known and liked in the local courts so you can feel confident that he will be an excellent advocate for you. The divorce process is very challenging but knowing you can trust your lawyer is essential. I highly recommend Steve without reservations.

Steve and his amazing paralegal Jo made the experience of my disillusion as smooth as possible. Steve is exactly what I needed him to be; patient, kind, extremely knowledgeable, and a pitbull in my corner when necessary. I felt extremely supported through the entire process with his counsel. He really listened to what I wanted and explained all my options for how to make it happen. I got everything I wanted in the end. I also found his billing to be extremely fair.

Getting divorced can be challenging, sad and frustrating, to say the very least. I remember asking around for “the good guy”. I wanted to be fair and yet strong. I wanted to be protected and smart, but to “do the right thing” I knew 28 yrs ago that I married the right person and believed that for a very long time until one day everything changed. The day I decided that I needed to be divorced I knew that I needed someone in m y corner. I needed someone with a soul, not the guy you hear about that takes you for a ride and before you know it, the situation is out of control, both in emotion and cost. Thank God I found Steve. He was everything good I was looking for. He was tough and strong when I needed him to be. He listened when I needed him to listen. He trusted me as I trusted him to do the right thing. Steve is a family man himself so he understood where I was coming from and wanted to help me resolve my exit the right way. He was able to reason with my spouse, something I hadn’t seen anyone do in a long time. He did his job to the final degree. I must say he couldn’t do all of this without his awesome assistant Jo. She was conscientious and finitely detailed. She was kind and supportive. I never thought I would write a review on what a “good outcome” of a divorce would look like, but here I am doing so.. Thank you Steve and Jo. I am grateful that you both know your way and you guided me to where I needed to be in the end. I walked away knowing no matter what that I did the right thing.

Mr. August was kind, professional and brilliant. I only wish he was the first lawyer I had hired. I have sent him multiple clients and all have been thrilled with his expertise and efficiency. I would highly recommend him. His paralegal, Jo, is efficient and kind as well.

Compassionate. Professional. Exceptional representation & resolution. Steve August is attentive & very savvy. Paralegal Jo is responsive when Steve is in court. I could not have been in better “hands.”

Not only am I a client, but I am also an attorney. When I was blindsided with divorce, Steve was the first person I called. Although I initially thought the divorce would be collaborative, I quickly realized that would not be the case, and the process would be even more difficult. Steve was fantastic through the whole process. He kept me fully informed, provided great service (all of my questions and concerns were very promptly answered in a direct and straight forward manner), and gave me great advice. Most importantly, he listened to what I needed, set the priorities to get those things accomplished, and put me first. He was direct, effective, compassionate, and efficient. While divorce (especially with kids) is traumatic, having Steve in my corner allowed me to preserve my relationship with my kids, get the custody arrangement that I wanted, move forward in life, and maintain financial stability. Thanks, in large part to Steve, life did move forward after separation and divorce. I do not wish the grief of the end of a long marriage on anyone, but if they must face it for any reason, Steve should be their first call!!!

From the moment I met Steve, I knew he was the right person to handle my divorce. He is straight forward, honest, and dedicated to doing what's best for his clients and their families. We ran into a complication on the day of my divorce, with my ex trying to renegotiate a signed agreement, and Steve handled it with so much confidence, that I was certain things would go my way. He even made a few jokes that helped ease the stress of that day, which I appreciated greatly. The judge ruled in my favor and I walked away very happy with the outcome. I cannot say enough great things about Steve and his paralegal, Jo. They worked very diligently on my case, and were both professional and kind. I would recommend Steve a thousand times over.

Going through a divorce is not easy, to say the least. From the moment I walked into Steve's office, I knew that I was in excellent hands. First and foremost, Steve has your interests are heart. He is brillant, trustworthy, hardworking and dedicated. His para-legal Jo is just as outstanding. Their teamwork makes the process run as smoothly as possible. There is no else that can do a better job.
