Next Phase Legal & Dispute Resolution LLC

I am incredibly thankful for the exceptional support I received from Stephen McDonough and his assistant Maggie during my divorce proceedings. From the very start, he proved to be a great advocate for his clients, prioritizing my needs while navigating the complexities of the process. What stood out the most was how easy it was to communicate with him. He took the time to listen to my concerns and always made me feel understood and valued. His dedication to his work is evident in how seriously he approached my case, ensuring that every detail was attended to and that I felt supported every step of the way. I genuinely appreciate the fair and balanced guidance he provided throughout the process, which made a difficult situation much more manageable. I highly recommend Attorney McDonough to anyone in need of a knowledgeable and compassionate attorney. He truly goes above and beyond for his clients!

Using Next Phase Legal has made the tricky process of divorce so easy. Stephen and Maggie were top notch in their professionalism, promptness and kindness throughout and made this process move fairly quickly. We appreciate the time and thoroughness to make sure everything was taken care of. Highly recommend!

Stephen McDonough represented me very effectively in divorce. He has a strong work ethic and was always well prepared for each step. What I most appreciate about him is his sensitivity to the needs of a situation. When a light touch was sufficient, he demonstrated himself to be likeable and pleasant. When a little more force was necessary, he brought to bear the necessary authority without ever escalating a situation. He deserves my highest recommendation, and I am ever grateful for his work.

Although no one wants to go thru a divorce, Stephen at NextPhase made the process seamless. He walked us thru the process and over the course of several meetings we discussed and came to an agreement on topics such as custody, child support, selling or keeping marital assets, life insurance, 401k, etc. I would recommend NextPhase for mediation.

I’ve never had a lawyer before and Stephen was very professional and made me comfortable when it came to my uncomfortable family situation. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs assistance. 10/10, if I ever need legal advice again I know exactly where I’m going.

It was a blessing to find Steve and his team. Steve is a phenomenal mediator and helped us reach an agreement and get to our goal of finalizing a divorce.

I have worked with next phase legal to help me with my child custody case. Stephen and his paralegal Karen have been such big help in helping me with my case. I have worked with a lawyer in the past and she had told me that with my situation with getting full custody that she wouldn’t be able to help me. Stephen has helped me in so many ways and was very knowledgeable with ever question that I had asked. I had worked through the portal app that they have used and have received all my paperwork and documents. It was great being able to see everything that has been sent to the courts and back and forth. It helped me to keep track of my payments and was a great form of communication between us. I would highly suggest Stephen to everyone as an attorney and will be doing so if I need legal help in the future. i have gotten everything I had asked for in court and thank Stephen and Karen for that. thank you!!!

I used Next Phase Legal for a prenuptial agreement. Stephen and his staff were friendly and professional throughout the process even when it sometimes took me awhile to produce the required documents. My questions were always answered thoroughly and promptly and I felt that the legal advice given throughout the process was very well thought out. Wouldn't hesitate to use Next Phase should I need to in the future, but here's hoping I won't! Thanks again Stephen and staff!
