I have had the privilege to work with the staff of Stephenson Rife after getting pretty banged up in a car accident. At first, I was not sure that it would be worth it to consult an attorney, but after racking up some pretty hefty medical bills, auto damage and loss time a friend told me that I should reach out to Stephenson Rife. Mr.Stephenson reached out to me and assured me that I did in fact have a case and that his team could help me.

I cannot thank Sean Roth, and his amazing paralegal Sarah for all of their help during this process. I would definitely recommend Stephenson Rife for any Personal Injury needs that you may have. This team was fast, professional and helped with all of my questions and concerns.

I hired them to help me with a car wreck mess that I was in I had to have surgery which led to complications while I was in and got hospitalized for a long time in which my health insurance held a lien against me for whole settlement and Mike and his team did a AMAZING job and got the whole lien waved and got me and my wife what we deserved out of the situation. If I am ever in a situation where I need legal help again, I will choose them over anyone. Thanks for all the work you guys put into my case!

When life gives you lemons… you better hope you have a Paul by your side!

Choosing Stephenson Rife was one of the best decisions I could have made, and I would make that choice again without hesitation.

After my son and I were in a hit-and-run accident, our lives changed in ways I never could have imagined. What followed was a heartbreaking cascade of events that ultimately led to my son becoming very ill and, in time, passing away. It is a chapter of my life I would rather not dwell on, but there are moments and people that I am grateful to remember…

Debbie, the OG paralegal, who first welcomed me, reassured a scared and uncertain mom when I needed it most. Paul, truly one of the most compassionate attorneys I could have hoped for, listened patiently to every painful detail. Penny, paralegal MVP, met my anxiety with kindness and steady support in some of my most despairing moments.

You will not find another firm like Stephenson Rife. They didn’t just handle a case, they walked beside me through some of the darkest moments. They even watched my son’s final honor walk, choosing to share in our grief. These once strangers became like family. They showed genuine care, empathy, and love not only for me, but for my son. For that, I will always be thankful.

Michael J. – ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I had a very serious motorcycle accident 5 years ago. I lost my right leg above the knee in the accident. I was looking for the very best personal injury attorney in the country who represents plaintiffs in an accident. I found that in Mike Stephenson. He is the top managing partner in his law firm of about 38 attorneys. He has been recognized by his peers of personal injury attorneys as a Super Attorney in his specialty for years. His office was 2000 miles away from where the accident occurred. At the time I contacted him he had represented accident victims in 18 different states. My case now makes it 19 different states. I originally contacted him with an email describing the accident. He called me within 12 hours. He was on an airplane to meet me within a couple of weeks.

He was everything I was looking for in an attorney. He was very professional looking. Brief and to the point. It was a 2 day initial visit. He helped formulate a long term plan for my case. He spent the next 6 months gathering all the data and information to determine if I had a case. This included very extensive information from me. Accident reports. Hospital records. Motorcycle records. From the day he called me and said I had a case all the hard work on his side began. During the case he flew out about 7 times for motorcycle inspections, practice depositions, depositions and 2 mediation’s. Thru his hard work the case was settled in a second mediation 6 weeks before court.

Mike is honest, professional and relentless in the pursuit of justice for the plaintiff. He always returned phone calls, texts and emails. He was very honest in his opinions whether it was something I wanted to hear or not. He hired the very best expert witnesses. In my case a professional long term care doctor reporting my lifetime care needs. One of the countries best motorcycle experts to find the problems with the motorcycle. Specialty high tech companies to digitalize accident pictures, hospital emergency room pictures, and digitalize pictures of emergency room X-rays and MRIs. Digitalize pictures of all surgical operations. Mike did multiple power point presentations which included all this information from all the specialists he hired for the case. His presentations are POWERFUL visual tools.

He took the case to a settlement on the 2nd mediation 6 weeks before court. He had specialists from 4 different states to put the case together. He never missed missed an appointment, email, text or phone call in 3 years. On a scale of 1-10 in my book he is an 11. If you are a plaintiff in an accident I could not give a better recommendation for an attorney. He is the best attorney I have ever had.

I was in a minor vehicle accident in November of 2024 and knew I needed to get an attorney as I wasn’t at fault and knew I would have a long list of medical bills. Mike was the perfect person for this job. He was very attentive and had no problems with me asking a million questions. After all this was said and done I reached out to Mike regarding something personal that came up and Mike didn’t even stop and hesitate to help me even when he was heading ti the airport for some quality family time. Couldn’t thank him or his team enough! I highly recommend Stephenson Rife LLP.
