Experience matters.
A Common Pleas Judge must be prepared to preside over a wide range of cases, from serious criminal matters to complex civil disputes. The role requires sound judgment, a thorough understanding of the law, and the ability to fairly apply it in every case.
Steve has spent more than 25 years preparing for this responsibility: 11 years as an Assistant Prosecutor, 11 years in private practice handling diverse legal matters, 4 years as a Magistrate, and now serving as a Common Pleas Judge.
That breadth of experience matters. It provides the perspective needed to interpret the law fairly, protect constitutional rights, and ensure every person who enters the courtroom is treated with dignity, respect, and impartiality.
The office of Common Pleas Judge deserves proven experience, sound judgment, and an unwavering commitment to the rule of law.
