Q&A with Stephen M. Nagy
How can your representation make a difference?
Beyond diligently pursuing the best result, I have personally found bringing a sense of calmness and peace into an otherwise tumultuous time in our client’s lives is one of the most important parts of my representation. Helping my clients feel understood, assured, and at ease throughout the representation is a foundational tenet for my role as legal counsel, and is paramount regardless of whether escalation or de-escalation is required.
What motivates you to work in your field?
I was raised in a loving home where respect, empathy, and doing right by others were ingrained from a young age. As a natural evolution, I chose this career because I want to positively impact people’s lives during their challenging times while providing that sense of peace I have felt since my youth. I am also drawn to the opportunity to help families navigate difficult situations to obtain the most favorable result.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of work?
I am a major history buff, Lord of the Rings enthusiast, and love all things sports, including recently taking up tennis.
