About Steven
Steven Scharboneau built his legal framework quickly after college. He studied at the University of Arizona, earning a Bachelor of Arts in 2015. He then attended the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University and received his J.D. in 2019. Those years set the stage for work at courts, in law offices and in the Capitol.
He began legal work while still a student. In 2017 he served as a law clerk at Rosenstein Law Group, PLLC and worked as a research assistant for The Honorable Michael D. Jones. Earlier, in 2012, he took a lead internship during a special election for Congressman Ron Barber. Those early roles gave him exposure to litigation support, case research and the practical demands of public service.
After law school he moved into practice in Arizona. He joined Stone Rose Law Office, PLLC as an attorney in 2020. That same year he gained memberships that permit work in both state and federal forums: he is a member of the State Bar of Arizona and of the U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona, statuses he has held since 2020. He also began formal involvement with Arizona Lawyers for Criminal Justice in 2018 and serves on its executive board.
His profile includes a mix of courtroom and policy work. He is a registered lobbyist with the Arizona Secretary of State, reflecting time spent on legislative engagement and regulatory matters. Locally, he has been active in Phoenix civic affairs as vice chairman of the Rio Vista Village Planning Committee, a role he has held since 2018. That blend of municipal involvement and legislative experience informs how he approaches client matters that touch on government or land-use issues.
In 2023 he opened his own practice, Steven George Law, PLLC, where he acts as owner and lead attorney. Running a small firm has meant handling an array of tasks: client intake, case strategy, litigation and administrative duties. He continues to appear in both state and federal court and remains involved with professional organizations tied to criminal justice practice and court admission.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparing files and persistent in pursuing arguments. He balances courtroom work with public-service roles, shifting between litigation and local policy meetings when necessary. His current practice focuses on state and federal litigation and matters that sit at the intersection of law and public policy.
