My expirence with Mr. Steward was unique, I had two attorneys prior to him that lied and did their best to take my money and just blow me off. I was a nervous wreck, it was my first time having to do something like this. Both attorneys prior to Mr Steward took my case not even specializing in the matters that I needed them for(knowing full and well what I was looking for). I was tricked by one of the firm's where they told me I needed to pay $10,000 upfront before anything else could move forward. A real disgusting jerk. Which also made it hard to trust those in the profession. Then I spoke with Mr Steward. Let's just start with WOW! Just looking at credential comparison I was dumbfounded. The man spoke so confident, he didn't waver. He made sure that I felt comfortable knowing that hiring him would at the very least put my mind at ease (and probably the best outcome), it was the first time I slept sound in a month. I'll never forget what he told me when we first spoke. Now you do have a big problem here but, you came to the right person (no promise). He constantly communicated with me not leaving any kind of holes or or thoughts in my head. I felt calm confident and ready to handle this head-on. At the end of the day let's be honest it comes down to the money. The conversation about compensation was so short I only remembered, he did not pressure me, he didnt try to con me. He simply told me what he can do and why it's that way nothing more. He worked with me unlike the 2 before. Now that everything is said and done. This is the guy I would hire and if he's not what you need still call him he has connections that will point you in the right direction. Just remember this guy IS a G.O.A.T. (greatest of all time) so don't waste his.

Dean Steward is simply the BEST! Our family was dealing with a very difficult situation and had absolutely no experience with the Federal system or how it worked. It was a very scary time for us and we felt completely helpless until the day we met with Mr. Steward. He was very honest from the start in telling us we had a tough case. We appreciated his honesty and finally felt confident knowing we had the BEST on OUR side. He is a highly experienced defense attorney who has handled hundreds of trial cases but beyond all of his experience and knowledge, he is truly a kind and compassionate person. He takes the time to understand your case and explain the process every step of the way. He is always available to answer questions and responds quickly to calls & emails. Our case ended up going to trial and I can’t even put into words how amazing he was in the courtroom. This is when his years of experience and mastery of law really became evident. We were extremely impressed with his skill and tenacity when arguing our case. When hiring Mr. Steward you can expect professionalism, honesty, knowledge, compassion and someone who will fight for you giving 110% all the time. We love Dean like family and would recommend him to anyone who is looking to hire the very BEST!!

I was facing up to 4 years on my case since I was a fugitive at large. Once I was ready to face my charges I look up online to hire an attorney to represent me in my case. Out of thousands of Attorneys in California I ran across Mr Steward here. Not only did he got most of my charges dropped. He also got me less than 10 month for my criminal case. I felt like I just won a lottery for picking Mr Steward as my counsel. Mr Steward is a very hard working person as well as genius in handling my case. Words couldnt express my attitude to Mr Steward. I am highly recommending Mr Steward to anyone out there who are seeking for a counsel. You Must Speak to Mr Steward first.

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Stewart over six and half years ago. He was highly recommended to me by a family member that was previously represented by Mr. Stewart. I was young when I first meet him, never got into trouble with the law or had dealt with any lawyers in my life before. It was a very tough road for my family and I but because of Mr. Steward we never lost hope. From day one until six and half years later finally when my case ended Mr. Staward was always there for me, responded to my emails, phone calls, text messages within few hours, told me that I should move on with my life and not to worry about my case to much.
He is an excellent lawyer, very respectful, very professional and very knowledgeable about the law.
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYONE that needs a defense lawyer!

Dean is such a rare find! I got really lucky that he took on my case when I couldn't find anyone else. I've never been in any trouble and was dealing with some serious charges. I needed someone with experience and wasn't going to hire just anyone. Dean was exactly what I needed. I've been through so much within the last year and Dean really took all of my personal situations into considerate and was really thoughtful and caring and listened and got to know me as a person and not just another client. He never judged me or treated me like other past attorneys that I have worked with. We went into the case knowing what we wanted and Dean fought really hard and the outcome was exactly what we wanted. Not to mention Dean was always available and responsive weather it be by phone or email I could always count on him to reassure me and answer questions. I am very impressed with how knowledgeable and prepared he is. I have always dealt with Dean directly never his paralegal. Not even sure if he has a paralegal actually. I could go on and on and on about this man, and have nothing but positive things to say about him. I know I would definitely refer him to anyone or hire him again if I ever had to. Thanks Dean for being who you are, I wish there were more genuine people out there like you..

I was highy recommended to H. Dean Steward from another attorney in Los Angeles that found my case to be very complex. I realized after the first interview I was sitting with an expert attorney that really knows the law. It immediatley put me at ease. After working with Mr. Steward, I found him to be bright, knowledgeable, enthusiastic in a very professional way, hard working, listens well, always quick to respond to my questions and concerns and explained all aspects of what I am dealing with. Mr. Steward represented me with great confidence in court, is well respected and I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

A "rare find". A true "diamond in the rough". Number one in the heap". Top end of the "bell curve". What other positive descriptions can I use to describe one of the finest lawyers with whom I have ever had the privilege to work with. Dean has that rare combination of "knowledge", "responsiveness", "flexibility" and "bedside manner", which together leads to the best possible outcome.
Understanding that much is out of his control, his sensitivity to all aspects of a case, including the players, is most important. I never felt alone against the heavy hand of our system. No guarantees of course, but it's important to have the best on your team. I challenge anyone to find a more knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive lawyer as H. Dean Steward.

H. Dean Steward is a good and compassionate man with a sense of humor. His integrity is evidenced by his honesty and dedication to justice. Dean has the unique ability to ease the client's stress by maintaining a casual and comfortable office environment while at the same time providing professional advice. He LISTENS and gathers information; researches issues, and develops defense strategies which are discussed in detail with the client. The defense strategy is a participatory effort where all the facts, laws, and options are reviewed and discussed thoroughly prior to decisions. Dean is always available to answer questions, provide information and emotional support. He is there every step of the way.
