When you are confronted by the most adverse time in your life, you need someone on your side to defend your rights and proclaim your station. Mr. Steve Hesse is that person. Mr. Hesse is very well versed in the defense of claims, and is methodical in presenting the facts. Mr. Hesse is well regarded in the legal community and knows how to approach the judicial system with your case.
He will not try to tell you what you want to hear and will not promise you an outcome you obviously want. But he will provide you exceptional legal counsel. In addition, he will guide you in addressing your personal needs while you go through this most stressful time. He will represent you as a person and not just a client. I highly recommend the services of Steve Hesse. He is the best defense lawyer you could want in these most-challenging times.

Who doesn't charge you more when they can??? (read below)
I interviewed many lawyers to help with a false accusation against my family. However, Steve was the only one that I felt "cared" on the phone. He dropped what he was doing to meet us at the police station the next day. When he got there, he walked us through what to expect and the Lieutenant remembered Steve for when he was "on the other side".
Steve's knowledge of how the police work was instrumental in warning us what to do/not do. As a result, things went very smoothly. (He is a combination of a gentle demeanor and also a serious bulldog depending upon the hat he needs to wear.) He even assisted my wife when she was questioned even though he was officially representing me and not her. She later joked that she didn't want his help in the first place and then wished Steve was "her" lawyer!
After the police meeting, I offered to pay more to retain him all the way through the potential process. He advised me to wait as he didn't want to take my money when we didn't even know if there would be next steps (or what they would be).
Fast forward to our names being cleared and we didn't have to have any next steps. YAY!!! Steve followed up with us and we didn't have to pay any additional money.
Although I hope I NEVER have to use him again, I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone who needs help. If I ever do need help in the future, he'll be my first call.

Stephen was professional, helpful, and a wealth of knowledge while he assisted my with my case. He came highly recommended and I can not have asked for better representation. I strongly recommend his services should you require them.

So I typically do not write reviews but I wanted to talk the time to do so and single out an exceptional lawyer. I contacted Steve Hesse a few months ago to help me with my case. I had not had a good experience with another Georgetown attorney so Steve had that going against him right from the start.
I won't go into the specifics of my case, but I imagine if you are shopping for a lawyer something in your life is requiring you to do so.
While my case wasn't an overly complicated case, Steve treated me and gave me the attention of a "high profile" case. He made me feel like I was the only case that he was working on. What I really like about Steve, is that he always was available to me when I needed him. Unless he was in court or with a client, he and his staff gave me thier undivided attention. Steve would call me after hours from his cell and would spend as much time as necessary to explain things to me.
Steve is the best lawyer I have ever worked with. He is honest and has the utmost integretity. He also gets the job done which is the main thing and what you want in a lawyer. So I would stop shopping and call Steve, I know you will be pleased as I was.

I hired Stephen to handle a legal matter for me in May 2016.
He always took the time to explain the legal issues in a easy to understand manner for a layman. He did what he said he would do , returned e-mail questions in a timely manner as he also did phone calls.
I would recommend Stephen to anyone who needs his legal expertise.

My sighted had dealt with being bullied and when she had enough she stood up for another child that was being bullied and we found ourselves in trouble when she shoved the other child and her family filed assault charges on my daughter in the 8th grade. I was so furious as my daughter was a straight A honor roll student and felt she had stood up to this person and had done the right thing. I was referred to Mr Hesse as one of the best law firm in Williamson County for handling child cases. From the moment my daughter and I entered there office I could tell they were different. He talked me off the ledge of anger and tears. He made sure my daughter knew he was her attorney and that he would do whatever to help her. All she could do was cry and think her life was over. The way Steve ha led my daughter was amazing and beyond what I ever expected. When my daughter thought she couldn't handle another minute of the stress Steve was there assuring her that she was a great kid and he would be there for her every step of the way. He was so helpful when I just wants to scream and throw a fit at the injustice of it all. He made me realize I needed to take the emotion out of it and just help my daughter and was there every second we needed him. What could have turned out so horrible turned out to be a positive experience in the end for my daughter because of everything he did to reassure her that she was a good kid and just got caught up in somethin stupid and that sometimes adults just don't make the best decisions. My daughter has always wanted to be a lawyer and I believe she will always remember how Steve treated her as a person not a juvenile and respected her and was there to reassure her. She will be a better criminal attorney because of her experience with Steve and the way he guided her and treated her. I cannot thank him enough. He was absolutely amazing in our time of need.

This was my second time in seeking Mr Hesse's counsel. The first time was a possession charge; but, this time, I was feeling vindictive about a personal experience and was looking for retribution. The two of them set with me for almost an hour and explained that my resources would best be spent on counseling that would enable me to cope with my need for reprisal. At the time, my emotions were so raw that I would have mortgaged my home for a sense of satisfaction.
It was embarrassing, but they were compassionate and never did waiver in their stance that what they were advocating was in my best interest, whether I agreed or not. Sometimes, you need someone to save you from yourself when your emotions are clouding your judgement and that is what happened today.
Thanks guys. I am in your debt, especially since the consultation was free.

I hired Steve to represent me on a possession charge that would have ruined my professional license, leaving me unemployed. Steve had a very creative solution that I had never been able to find mention of in my many hours of researching the penalties for my charge.
Mr Hesse (I know you told me to call you Steve) I'll never be able to thank you enough.

Mr. Hesse gave the appearance of being my attorney, but behind the curtain he was fulfilling the wishes of my soon to be ex husband. I did not believe this until my final court appearance when my ex and he make eye contact and smiled....I paid him for my defense! What a fake!!!!!

I had gotten a DWI and lets just say it was a horrible experience. I am a school teacher and was so scared. I read online that The Dick Law firm had a lot of good reviews so I decided to check it out. Stephen walked me though the process step by step very throughly and explained all my options. I never felt rushed and if I had a question that needed an answer I had heard from him within less than 12 hours. There are other cheaper options out there for DWI lawyers but you will get what you paid for. Not all situations were the same but he was also able to get me out of my license suspension! Something that normally doesn't happen. I would highly recommend him.

Hiring Steve was one of the best decisions of my life. When I unexpectedly found myself in serious legal trouble, I was overwhelmed, terrified, lost and beyond fearful for my future. Steve was referred to me by a trusted long-time friend impressed with Steve's character and integrity. Her referral was spot-on. I can't say enough good and positive things about Steve's professionalism, exceptional legal expertise, client dedication and his kind and caring nature and personality. Steve is an extremely skilled and highly specialized attorney. At our first meeting, Steve met with me for over two hours with honesty, compassion and understanding. He was forthright with me in his vision and guidance in my case from the very beginning to conclusion. Steve routinely informed me about the progress of my case. He always returned my phone calls and e-mails immediately (no matter the hour, day or night). When I had questions, Steve always answered them in a through, professional, comprehensive, compassionate, and honest manner. Steve is honesty, integrity and professionalism personified. He provided guidance and positivity at every turn of my case...giving me great comfort along the journey and helping me to understand and select options when they were available to me (often under difficult circumstances)...and helping me make the best decisions possible for me and outcome of my case. Steve fought for me (and my case) vigorously.... with passion, dedication and expertise (going beyond the call of duty often). To say I was impressed with Steve (and grateful to him) is an understatement. I remain grateful and impressed with Steve to this day. Needless to say, the outcome of my case was extremely positive and I couldn't have been happier or more satisfied. Steve was beyond dedicated to ensuring the most positive outcome for me and he succeeded in every possible way (beyond my wildest imagination). I highly recommend Steve Hesse to anyone seeking the services of a dedicated, honest, exceptionally skilled, highly specialized, honest, caring and trusted criminal defense attorney. Since the conclusion of my case, I've had the good fortune to meet other former clients of Steve's too Each of them remain extremely grateful to Steve and they remain highly satisfied as former clients, as am I. I highly recommend Steve Hesse to anyone in need of a highly specialized, dedicated, professional and caring criminal defense attorney. He's unparalleled...and without exception, simply the best. I can't thank Steve enough!

I've been a client for 5 months and some of the past clients' statements are certainly off-base, but some may be true.
I am told that this is a really crooked legal system and there are few defendant rights.
I don't understand why an innocent person needs to be subjected to so much hardship and loss.
A compassionate lawyer with integrity is what we all want.
My final judgement on Mr. Hesse will not occur until I fully understand his strategy or he finally makes an altruistic move to help my case.
Right now he may be too be to be too busy to help.
