professional and personable I hired Steve when he was in new york. my immediate view of him was personable and professional. Steve is great all around and fights for his client and carries a way of understanding what you are going through even if he hasn't personally experienced it. you can't get a better attorney than him. he definitely left a lasting impression. I would recommend him to anyone. its hard to find a lawyer like him. a true one in a million

Genuinely honest and caring Mr Buitron has assisted me with several legal services through the years. He consistently keeps me informed on the status of what he is working on for me and always returns my calls. He is professional but still comes across as caring. Many times I have contacted him with questions that I am sure he already covered, but he never makes me feel rushed or that he doesn't have the time. I have referred several friends and everyone is very pleased with his service.

Biography

I was born and raised in San Antonio and completed my undergraduate studies in Political Science at the University of Texas at San Antonio, where I also earned a Master's in Public Administration. I later graduated with a Juris Doctor Degree from Syracuse University College of Law.

I am licensed to practice law in both Texas and New York, including their Federal Courts, and I am also admitted to practice before the US Supreme Court.

I dedicate myself to achieving the most favorable outcomes for my clients, whether that involves negotiation or going to trial. I firmly believe in maintaining open lines of communication with my clients throughout the duration of their cases. Ensuring that I am accessible is crucial, which is why I make it a point to return client phone calls within 24 hours. My primary goal is always client satisfaction.

Legal Answers
2 Questions Answered
Q. Can I stop communicating with my child's father due to manipulative texts and past harm?
A: You may request relief from the court by filing a motion outlining your child’s father’s behavior and asking that all communication between you be conducted through a court-monitored app, such as AppClose or Our Family Wizard. These platforms ensure that all messages are recorded and accessible to the court if needed.

A Texas Family Law attorney can provide guidance on the best approach for your situation. You are not required to tolerate inappropriate or manipulative communication, and the court may impose boundaries to protect your well-being.

I hope this helps.

Q. I need a lawyer asap I was served divorce child custody papers on the 17th my court date is tomorrow 1/22
A: Appear in court as scheduled and tell the judge that you were just served on the 17th and haven't had time to retain an attorney. In many cases, the judge will re-set the hearing to allow you time to hire one. Your case is most likely set for a Temporary Orders hearing, so you should prepare for that in case the judge doesn't grant a continuance. Bring pay stubs, bank statements, and documentation related to the children, such as school records and medical records. Also, any evidence to support your case for custody, visitation, and the split of marital property. Make notes and be ready to explain your position regarding custody of the children, property division, and related financial matters. ... Read More
