He is the sloppiest good for nothing attorney anyone could ever find. Once he takes your money no work will be done! Beware of his drunk Secretary. Both of them comsume alcohol in the office during business hours. Worthless people.

I am a client. Well until December 2, 2020 I was. Our and Steve Fox's offices are located in the same building. We paid money to Steve Fox he did absolutely nothing but talking. December 2, 2020 Around 5 pm I stopped by my office to pick up some paperwork. Steve Fox called my cell phone to inquire whether I was at the facility I told him I was right there in the hallway ready to leave the building. He opened the door and invited me in. I was showing him some potential case paperwork through the plastic shield on his desk. All of a sudden, the door wide opened without any notice and Steve Fox's drunk Secretary came inside. I turned toward her to say hi, she moved close to me with large bags of food and told me into my face with a threat in her voice: "you need to get out of here right now!" was shocked and said: "Excuse me?". She repeated moving closer to me: "you heard me you need to get out of here right now! Her voice was threatening. She looked violent! Her face was angry and red. I was afraid she was going to heat me. She looked and sounded drunk! She screamed at me calling me a Russian w...., saying that Russian people were not known for their intelligence etc. I grabbed my computer bag and my purse and ran out of the office. I was shaking... I realized that I forgot the car key and knocked on the door to get them. She opened the door loudly cursing; threw my car key with a heavy metal key chain into my face; and kicked me out of the door. I got hysterical and called the police to report a verbal abuse and physical threat. Steve Fox was just seating there doing nothing.

I retained Steve Fox a couple months ago and I am honestly thankful that I did. He is top notch and finds ingenious ways to get your kids back even if the mother is cray cray. He is punctual, well-spoken and has a great courtroom demeanor. His staff deserve 5 stars alone and we're there for me every step of the way. I highly suggest hiring Mr. Fox to take on your case cause you won't lose. He's the best in the AV and everyone in The Know knows it!

My experience was not very good having Mr. Fox for an attorney. As a matter of fact it was a nightmare. First of all Mr. Fox should not have taken this case as it was out of his wheelhouse. I'm not familiar at all with legal stuff and thought since the case dealt with children, he could represent it. However the case was a criminal case that involved children and subsequently custody of those children. Mr. Fox should have explained the difference and declined to accept the case based on that. Instead he said that he would need a payment to discuss the case! I stupidly gave him money. After money was given to him everything went downhill very, very fast. He was impossible to reach and nonresponsive, would call back 4 or 5 days later. At some point they started screening my calls and not answering my call from my number. It got so bad that I had to play a trick on them. I had my sister call and another friend call and guess what? They answered the phone for their calls! The person that answers his phones in his office was extremely rude from day 1. I confronted her amd told her that she was rude. She in a very round about way sort of apologized by saying the phones are crazy today. Like that's an excuse for being rude!! During such a tumultuous time in my life that is the last thing I needed. After I hired Mr. Fox, it was extremely difficult to get ahold of Mr. Fox and as a consequence he did not represent well in court either. He did not consult about the case nor did he propose a strategy or defense, he didn't even read the file, ask questions or talk to anyone in defense of this case. He didn't even advise on interviewing for bail hearing just allowed the chips to fall wherever they landed. When court day came, he appeared unprepared and not interested in getting bail reduced or charges dismissed. I can go on and on. From his inexperience with criminal defense cases to his office person blasting loud rap music and saying how she hates dealing with "mothers" they're the worst! Ultimately we decided to hire another attorney for the matter after wasting precious time and money on Mr. Fox that we didn't have to throw away! Bottom line is I learned a lesson, do your homework do not leave it up to someone else to do or tell you how to do it. You have to gather as much info as humanlyrics possible then consult an attorney.

A solid and trustworthy representative who demonstrates as a former assemblyman, that he cares about his constituents. The ONLY assemblyman that EVER asked what issues we as a community were concerned about! In private practice I am sure he has the same dedication and integrity to his clients.

The worst experience I have been through. To top it off, I have not been able to reach him for months to find out he is now a CA Assemble man in Sacramento. WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED!!!!! The case/file is in limbo and I am frustrated. Left dozens of voice mails / emails, not ONE return call. The divorce has been open for two years and still don't know where I am because he is not around. Paid him over ~$10000 to date. Filing with the CA Bar Association since he is still subject by the Bar.
