What Our Client Say
I have been a client of Jad’s for 3 years. He has been a strong advocate for me, always keeping me apprised of any case with a courteousness and diligence that is seldom found today. He comes with my highest recommendation.

Being new in Houston, I feel that I really “lucked out” when I chose to have this firm prepare my Will packet. The courtesy, professionalism, patience and knowledge shared with me by everyone I met from the front door to Jad Stepp’s office went above and beyond recent experiences.
Kit R.
These gentlemen are so amazing at what they do. They were professional and attentive to my needs. While going through a difficult situation they were more than helpful in making it a smooth transition. I never felt rushed or uneasy about the process. So thankful I found them at a crossroads in my life…Highly recommend this firm, everyone I spoke with here were top notch…you won’t go wrong trusting them.
