Stephen focuses on complex litigation and appeals. He has tried cases to verdict in state and federal courts and has argued more than 50 appeals.  His practice spans class actions, personal injury, aviation accidents, complex commercial disputes, defamation, professional malpractice, and whistleblower claims. His abilities have been recognized in numerous publications. Benchmark Appellate observed that Stephen “possesses the rare skill set allowing him to excel at both trial and appellate litigation.” Chambers U.S.A. has praised his “extremely creative legal analysis skills” and “sharp intellect,” and ranks him among the top appellate lawyers in the State of Florida.” 

In addition to representing victims of abuse, negligence or fraud, Stephen has also been sought out by prominent clients for important litigation, including a sitting judge, elected officials ranging from the re-election campaign of the President of the United States, the Mayor of Miami-Dade County, former professional football players, a large law firm, and several Fortune 500 companies.
