Law Office of Andrew M. Stein

By the grace of god, I found Andrew Stein, of Stein & Markus Law. From the first conversation, Andrew explained his decades of defense experience as well as Joe Markus decades of D/A Prosecution Experience which made the duo “a force to be reckoned with”! I was very impressed! He was such a friendly and approachable man. Andrew was very well educated in the SB 1437 bill. He and Joe Markus were patient and very straight forward which I appreciated. After careful review & deliberation of my husband Billy Juarez 2002 Case, Stein & Markus Agreed to Represent my Husband for the 2019 SB 1437 case in Riverside County. They were aggressive, and stead fast during court filings. They kept me informed about each step of the process. After 19 years of incarceration, Stein & Markus WON the resentencing filing allowing my husband to come home! They have given my husband Billy a beautiful second chance at life. He has now been home almost 5 years and I am so proud to say he is a family man and a law abiding productive member of society. I can not thank Stein & Markus Enough for their hard work, dedication and law expertise resulting in not only my husband Billy's Return home but for the 60 other Individuals they have since brought home! We are forever grateful to Andrew, Joe and Staff!

I have known Andrew Stein since 1987, when I became employed as a court reporter for LA Superior Court. I have worked on many, many hearings and trials with Andy. He is well-respected throughout the court system. I have seen him advocate for his clients in the most difficult of circumstances. He stands up for what he believes in and is very well liked by the Bench. I have referred several friends and family members to Stein and Marcus and all have been thankful for his representation. Whenever I am asked for a referral for a criminal attorney, I always think of Stein and Marcus first. Definitely a quality law firm and a place to received stellar representation.

I am pleased to write this review for The Law Office of Stein & Markus, where I have had the privilege of observing their exceptional work in the field of criminal defense. As a colleague in the legal profession, I can confidently say that their expertise and dedication to their clients are truly commendable. Stein & Markus have demonstrated an impressive ability to navigate complex legal issues, particularly those surrounding the new legislation, SB 1437, which addresses the felony murder rule. They have been at the forefront of this legal transformation, successfully advocating for clients and achieving reversed sentences for those unfairly impacted by outdated laws. Their commitment to justice and the rights of their clients is evident in every case they take on. The attorneys at Stein & Markus approach each case with a strategic mindset, ensuring that they explore every possible avenue for their clients. Their thorough research, clear communication, and empathetic client relations create a supportive environment for individuals facing serious criminal charges. I wholeheartedly recommend The Law Office of Stein & Markus to anyone seeking robust legal representation in criminal defense. Their track record, particularly in cases related to SB 1437, highlights their ability to bring about significant change and deliver justice for their clients.

In my darkest hour during my son’s incarceration was not having faith in my son’s public defender… and when I say GOD answered our prayers he did in Andy. The moment we met with Andy I knew my son was in good hands. 10 years later I truly know that Andy is still fighting for my son and us… we are family and that is how Andy and his team make you feel. He is bold, brutally honest (which is so nice to have in an attorney) and a true trial warrior and their winning streak is phenomenal !!!

I am an ex-lifer inmate. I served 21 years on a 50 to life sentence. I didn't have a very high opinion of lawyers, until I met Andrew Stein and Joseph Markus. I can truly say that my experience with them was very good. They were easy to get a hold of; they explained everything all the way through; and ultimately they helped me gain my freedom. God gave me a second chance at life, and He used Stein and Markus to do it. I highly recommend their services. They are true professionals.
