This firm is very helpful and thorough. Andrew Wainwright worked diligently to help my family through a difficult time. He and all the staff took the time required to ensure we understood each step of the process while being very compassionate regarding our situation. I highly recommend them.

I have been a client for many years. Whenever I have a question or problem, I call. The persons I have spoken with are professional and knowledgeable. My questions are answered in a timely manner.

The attorneys were very compassionate in dealing with my dad who was suffering from mesothelioma. They came to our home to carry out a deposition and went right to work carrying out justice for him. They have worked diligently to help our family. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a law firm. Everyone I have dealt with was professional and kind.

As a plaintiff, I had the opportunity to partner with Mike Lesser and the Thornton Law Firm on a rather complicated civil case which involved 15 defendants on one side and the federal and state governments with me on the opposite side. I could not have been more favorably impressed and satisfied with Mr. Lesser and his firm’s professionalism, competence and results. I highly recommend him and his firm without reservation.

I hired Steve as I had gotten a referral that he was the best for divorce cases involving complex compensation and high net worth individuals, with alimony and custody issues at stake. Steve has exactly the approach I was looking for. He's clearly not motivated by increasing his billable hours, he simply wants to steer you towards the best and most efficient outcome for your divorce. He understood the issues quickly, was very adept at advising me on what my best options were, and was realistic about when to compromise vs when to hold my ground. Divorce is a terrible experience to live through for most anyone, but I am very happy I chose Steve to guide me through the mediation and legal process. Steve has also been readily available and responsible post-divorce, as any misc issues or questions with my ex have arisen.

I came to Steve at a very troubled time. My then wife had hired an aggressive attorney and had filed for full custody of my child. Steve was able to strategically take apart their fabricated case and got me joint custody. I am extremely grateful to him and his team. I have already recommended him to an acquaintance and would highly recommend him to anyone going through a divorce.

Steve Gurdin represented me in a complaint for modification of alimony under the durational limits of the Alimony Reform Act. My ex spouse hired an aggressive firm which seemed bent on taking the case to trial. Due to Steve's thorough preparation, we were able to convince the other side to settle out of court, saving a lot of time, money and anguish. Steve was very professional throughout the proceedings, and was a pleasure to work with. I recommend him without reservation.

Steve was a real pleasure to work with. He was recommended to me by someone who also used his services. He came to the table with years of experience that helped me understand the unfamiliar and complicated process of family law which set me at ease from our first meeting. Steve was very organized and prepared in all of my dealings with him. I had a drawn out case over the course of 18 months, yet Steve stayed in touch and up to date on my case the entire time. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone looking for a highly intelligent and effective lawyer to represent them in a case in Family and Probate court. Steve was fair, helpful, easy to talk to, and easy to contact. I can't say enough good things about him, give him a call you won't regret it.

Steve efficiently and effectively converted conceptual sticking points into practical dollar implications in a way that made decision making significantly easier. While opposing council was taking an approach to generate legal fees and hassle, Steve pointed out where arguments would be more expensive in fees than I might recover so we could just move on. By helping to frame the boundaries and not get caught up in minutae, and by minimizing drama, it was easier to get to a deal.
