Stephen H. Price ("Steve") joined his friend Charles W. Cramer to found the firm in 1997, and supports business and individual clients in both litigation and transactional matters. Because he also holds a license as a Real Estate Broker and is a former Mortgage Broker, he understands the often complex needs of business clients.
Mr. Price works closely with owners of family-operated businesses, and understands their periodic need for rapid response and aggressive representation, as well as diligence and creativity in day-to-day matters.
With a major personal and professional commitment in the area of adoption, Steve takes deep pride in helping families and adoptive children come together to create happier and more fulfilled lives.
For his agricultural and family-owned business clients, Mr. Price brings both a personal family background and extensive education. Mr. Price's family has long been part of the agricultural backbone of Florida, which led him to earn a B.S. in Agriculture from the University of Florida prior to earning his law degree.
Mr. Price is married with three sons. He and his family are active members of the First Baptist Church/Orlando, where he serves in the church's college ministry. He also serves on the Board of Directors for House of Hope, Global Church Alliance and First Baptist Church/Orlando Budget Planning and Personnel Committees. In his free time Steve enjoys hunting, water sports, and other outdoor activities.
