Our Family has received twenty years of faithful advice and counsel from Stephanie Bivens and many of her associates. Bivens & Associates has provided legal services for at least 6 of family members and we are ALL extremely pleased and thankful for Stephanie and the associates of the firm. Thank you all!

I received excellent support from Megan Selvey at this firm. She provided the information we needed quickly and clearly, and was understanding and compassionate throughout.

Megan helped my family get my mom approved for ALTCS. That’s a stressful process and the office handled everything. Megan was kind, compassionate, prompt and thorough - I very much recommend Bivens/Megan Selvey.

I was originally working with another legal team to handle my mother's affairs as she suffered from dementia and could not take care of herself. The other legal team dragged the custody battle out for years, gave me the run-around, misappropriated my mother's funds, and basically made my life a nightmare for nearly 5 years. Enter Stephanie, Eileen, and the rest of the AMAZING staff at Bivens & Associates. In a matter of months, they made more headway than my previous lawyer had in years. They were there every step of the way to explain things I didn't understand, or to go advocate for me at the banks, or just to offer the emotional support and understanding that I so desperately needed after years of dealing with an ailing mother and an ongoing legal battle. When I was overwhelmed, they would help take care of any matters that didn't require my personal attention. There were several times I literally wept with relief because they made an otherwise difficult situation so much easier to manage and freed me up to spend time with my mother in her remaining months.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about the team at B&A. They truly, truly care and it shows in every single thing they do. They do not just see case numbers, they see their clients as the humans dealing with difficult situations that they are and they act with compassion every step of the way. At the same time, woe betide the person who tries to make their clients life difficult! I have never felt more confident and cared for and secure with a legal team as I have when working with this one. Don't waste your time with any other elder care lawyers. Our loved ones lives and well-being are far too precious to put into the care of anyone but the absolute best.

It was a pleasure working with Mrs. Stephanie Bivens who helped us with our Estate Planning documents. We appreciated her taking the time to explain everything in terms I could understand.

I would highly recommend Stephanie and all of the attorneys at Bivens & Associates. They are excellent elder law attorneys. I am impressed with their compassion and integrity. It is wonderful that they help educate the community and other healthcare professionals on such important topics.

Great customer service!

Outstanding service & commitment

I have been a community partner to Stephanie Bivens and the attorneys at Bivens and Associates for 10 years. In my experience Stephanie and the staff have provided my clients exceptional service and attention when they have needed legal services. In addition, I have served for years with Stephanie on a professional association board and she has been instrumental in leading and guiding that organization in the years she served. She has been a generous community contributor by speaking at many events over the years and her firm routinely offers community education that my staff and I have taken advantage of over many times. Bivens and Associates has been a trusted partner and we appreciate them very much.

I cannot thank everyone at Bivens & Associates for taking such great care of the most essential elements of my "legal" world! I feel so "at ease" for lack of a better phrase. Yes, even better than just having "peace of mind". I am almost in tears thinking about how I really feel!!! Honestly, I can hardly express it in words! They are simply amazing at covering every aspect in detail to insure being covered no matter the circumstances that could possibly develop! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I highly recommend Bivens & Associates to anyone seeking the least to the most complicated legal advice.

Professional and efficient

I was lucky enough to work with Megan and she was great. She had wonderful advice and it was easy to understand. She had answers to all of our questions and was very compassionate during the times we spoke both before and after my Mom had passed. I strongly recommend both Megan and Bivens and Associates.

My wife and I were referred to Stephanie Bivens at Bivens & Associates for help with our aging Parents, one of whom has Alzheimer's. She was Wonderful. She took her time and was Extremely helpful in explaining complex legal options in terms that we were able to understand, and made the whole process easier for us. The staff was friendly, prompt and knowledgeable. We are glad we went to her for help and are planning to go back to get our Estate Planning done.

Stephanie Bivens did some work for me and my mother 17 years ago. I have contacted them about four times. I was told that I would receive a call today at 9:30 am. It's now 10:12 am with no call. I called them back and told the person who answered the phone that I would not consider doing business them anymore. There reliability appears to be zero.

I went to Bivens & Associates based on a recommendation from a friend who said they were excellent attorneys and were very responsive to the needs of the elderly. Unfortunately, what I found is that they are not very responsive to the needs of their clients. The initial intake meeting with Stephanie Bivens and my parents to discuss setting up a trust and their wills, was fine. Stephanie was patient and attentive and seemed to understand what my parents wanted. Unfortunately, she either failed to clearly communicate those wants to her associate attorneys and staff or they failed to understand. The initial set of papers my parents and I received did not reflect the conversations with Stephanie. In spite of asking to have someone call me to discuss (a request made both my phone and email) that was not communicated clearly internally and I had to follow up to find out what was happening. It's one thing to cause me hassle, but when staff started calling my 80+ parents and not taking careful notes and calling back the next day, three times, making mistakes every time, I knew it had got out of hand. Attorneys working with the elderly should understand that multiple calls to elderly parents and making mistakes multiple times can cause frustration and upset at a level that it would not cause younger clients. I emailed Stephanie with my frustration and asked her to call me the next business day - I did not receive a phone call of an email in reply. Interestingly when sent an email terminating representation, I received a response within a few hours. Bivens & Associates would do well to provide that sort of rapid response to clients BEFORE they are being terminated.
