About Steven A.
Steven A. Dinneen is an attorney admitted to practice in California who operates a private practice under his own name. He handles matters arising under California law and advises individuals and businesses on legal questions that touch state courts and administrative bodies. His office bears his name: the Law Offices of Steven A. Dinneen.
He completed the study required to earn a law degree and gained admission to the California bar. Early in his career he worked in environments that exposed him to courtroom practice and client counseling, and he later chose to organize those experiences into an independent practice. Over time he built a practice model that balances litigation preparedness with efforts to resolve disputes outside of court when that is practical for a client.
Dinneen’s work covers a range of matters that commonly arise in state practice. He counsels clients on procedural steps, drafts pleadings and motions, and represents parties in hearings. He handles client intake, case management, and settlement negotiations. When a matter requires time in court, he prepares cases for trial and presents arguments before judges and other decision-makers.
Colleagues and clients describe his approach as straightforward. He emphasizes clear communication and practical next steps. He aims to explain legal options in plain language so people can make informed decisions. He also attends to the administrative side of practice: calendaring deadlines, meeting filing requirements and coordinating with experts or other counsel when cases require specialized input.
Outside of client work, he manages the administrative responsibilities of running a small law office. That includes supervising support staff, maintaining client files, and handling billing and trust accounting in accordance with professional rules. He has structured his office to provide one-on-one access for clients who prefer direct contact with their lawyer rather than large-firm procedures.
As of 2026 he continues to practice at the Law Offices of Steven A. Dinneen in California. He currently concentrates his practice on representing clients in matters governed by California law.
