Pros
1
Extensive experience and expertise in the local legal system
“His many years of practicing law in Santa Barbara (in different capacities) have resulted in him creating great and meaningful relationships with many of Santa Barbara's law professionals (across the board in many different places).”
2
Effective communication and attentive staff
“The staff is very attentive and professional. They are taking care of my needs.”
3
Successful case outcomes and client satisfaction
“He kept it to the facts, followed the law, and got to the prize! In my personal experience, he has the expertise, confidence, competence and connections to successfully represent any client.”
Cons
1
Potential issues with pricing and transparency
“Went to Stephen Penner for some simple estate planning...I do not recommend at all - he was rude, a poor communicator, and attempted to do a bait-and-switch on his pricing.”
2
Past disciplinary issues with the bar
“Some research I should have done PRIOR to meeting with him also shows that he's had his license to practice law suspended more than once - not trustworthy.”
