About Steven J.
Steven J. Andre is an attorney who earned his Juris Doctor from the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco in 1987. He completed his legal education at a time of transition in the profession and carried that training into private practice. His academic background provided the foundation for a long career in law.
After law school, Andre moved into legal practice and eventually established his own office. Over the years he has worked in settings that required both courtroom work and client counseling. He has experience handling the practical demands of a small law office and the procedural realities of litigation and negotiated resolutions.
Colleagues describe him as steady and practical in approach. He favors clear explanations over legalese. That approach has informed how he manages client matters and communicates options to those he represents. He has been involved in the everyday tasks of running a solo firm: managing filings, meeting clients, preparing documents, and appearing where necessary.
The Law Office of Steven J. Andre is the base for his practice. From there he serves individual clients and small businesses, addressing a range of legal concerns that arise in routine and contested matters. He keeps a hands-on role in each file and oversees the administrative functions of the office. His day-to-day work balances client intake, legal research, negotiation and courtroom appearances when they are required.
Across decades in practice, Andre has remained anchored in private practice rather than academic or large-firm roles. That choice has shaped the type of work he performs and the professional rhythms he follows. He continues to operate his solo firm, handling matters from intake through resolution and maintaining direct client contact. His current practice focuses on serving clients through the Law Office of Steven J. Andre and handling their legal matters from his solo office.
