Jeff Stein is a real Perry Mason! The real McCoy!! This man is a good and deceit Advocate. Follows the law to the letter with the idea to serve the clients best interest in mind. For those of you reading this that never heard of Perry Mason will find in that great show, staring Raymond Burr, Barbra Hale and my favorite William Hopper as Paul Drake a Law firm with an attorney who is as Mr. Stein would agree, a true criminal defense advocate and thus a true role model... a true inspiration in all walks of life. That is in my humble opinion and my own experiences with Mr. Stein a true inspiration! Good Luck with your case , Michael E. Redman -- Ross Santa Maria Ca. 10/20/2026

Carrie is a fantastic attorney and guided us through a tricky legal situation. She was dedicated to helping us navigate all the paperwork, understanding all the requirements and she stayed on top of the proceedings to ensure everything moved forward as smoothly as possible. We highly recommend working with her!

I’d like to share this personal text I sent Jeff. I cannot speak highly enough about him. Hello Jeff, It’s been on my heart to send you a text and find the right words. I don’t think saying a mere Thank you, is quite adequate for what you’ve done for my husband, for us as a family. We are extremely grateful for all you’ve done to help him/us. That was hands down the worst 3 weeks of our 17 year marriage. Traumatizing to imagine loosing everything. You were a source of strength for us during this time. Not just because of your position, or your knowledge. But, your calm, steady demeanor, explaining things simply so we could understand and also your connection to our mutual friend. Jeff, Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your empathy towards our situation, your expertise, your unexpected and overwhelming generosity. We will NEVER forget what you have done for us. ❤️😭🙏🏼

There are attorneys who know the law, and then there are attorneys who have spent half a century living it, building relationships, earning trust, and developing the kind of judgment that only comes from decades of real experience. Jeffrey Stein is the latter, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. I came to Jeff facing serious charges that threatened both my freedom and a long career in a demanding and highly regulated field. From our first conversation he demonstrated clarity of thought, strategic depth, and an honesty about the realities of my situation that immediately gave me confidence. He was consistently available, responsive, and direct. He never hedged when I needed a straight answer. What distinguishes Jeff from other attorneys is not just his legal ability but the extraordinary network of professional relationships he has cultivated over more than fifty years of practice, almost all of it in San Luis Obispo County. Those relationships matter enormously in ways that are difficult to quantify but impossible to overstate. The standing he has earned in this community, with prosecutors, with the courts, with fellow members of the bar, creates opportunities for resolution that simply would not exist without it. In my case that standing made a decisive difference. The firm he has built alongside his daughter Kara Stein-Conaway reflects a career of genuine excellence. The knowledge, judgment, and professional relationships Jeff has developed over five decades are being carried forward by the next generation of this firm, which speaks well for the community they serve. If you need a criminal defense attorney in San Luis Obispo County, you will not find better counsel, better judgment, or a more dedicated advocate. My gratitude is beyond what a review can adequately express.

I want to start by thanking everyone at this firm. Everyone I interacted with was truly amazing and played an important role in helping with my case. I chose this law firm because of their excellent reviews, and from my very first conversation with them I knew I had made the right decision. They were incredibly kind, listened carefully to all of my concerns, and took the time to answer every question I had.Throughout the entire process, they worked diligently and put a tremendous amount of effort into my case. In the end, I received the best outcome I could have hoped for, worked with a forensic chemist and I did not get my license suspended. They provided constant reassurance and I never felt like I was going through this alone, which meant a lot during such a stressful time. They helped guide me through my court case and DMV hearing and kept me updated every step of the way. I especially want to give a huge thank you to Sarah Matthews and Carrie Winters for always responding to my emails quickly and for being such incredible support. I believe that they both truly advocate for their clients and work hard to achieve the best outcome. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Everyone I spoke with—from the receptionists to the attorneys—was professional, compassionate, and extremely helpful. This entire team truly cares about their clients and puts in 100% effort. I am incredibly grateful for everything they did for me, especially during a time when I felt very overwhelmed.

Kara, Carrie and the rest of their team really helped me feel at ease going forward with my case. As someone who's dealt with, unfortunately, several attorneys over the years, having confidence in the abilities of one's legal representatives is vital to their mental health. This team gave me confidence from the first call.

I reached out to Stein-Conway Law Firm to have my record expunged after putting the task off for a while. I had some anxiety about revisiting that part of my past, but Jeff made the entire process feel simple, manageable, and comfortable. He explained each step clearly and kept me informed while I was navigating my own busy schedule. He truly handled everything. I'm incredibly grateful for his help and would highly recommend him to anyone needing guidance through this process!

I will be forever grateful for the care the team gave me during a very difficult time. Words can’t describe how warm, respectful and brilliant they are. Sarah, my case manager was always willing to go the extra mile. Daniella always went above and beyond to connect me with the right person every time I called; which was many times. Carrie went to bat for me in court and made me very aware of what to expect and put my mind as ease. I highly recommend the Stein-Conaway law firm just as someone had recommended them to me.

Attorney Kara Stein-Conaway and her entire team were an excellent group of professionals who helped me with legal representation for a couple of misdemeanor charges I though had been taken care of long time ago. During my case, I was kept fully informed on the progress of my case with excellent verbal and written communication. I was treated with respect and empathy at all times . The hard work put together before the court date resulted in positive and effective results as my criminal case is now closed. I'm glad I chose this firm when I was looking for representation in SLO County. Many 5-star reviews by previous clients was the key.

I highly recommend Stein-Conaway Law Firm and their team if you ever face a difficult situation and don’t know who to turn to. From day one, the Assistant kindly took the time to take our information and scheduled my husband and I a phone appointment to speak to the Attorney. Attorney Kara Stein-Conaway was very kind and professional and took the time to listen and made my husband and I feel comfortable with the information and her experience. I liked how I was able to communicate with the Staff via email. The staff answered the emails on time and we were kept updated on any status or anything that was needed via email as well. It only took a few weeks to hear back from Attorney Carrie Winters stating “Congratulations”!! Attorney appeared in court and case was won. Thank you so much Stein-Conaway Law Firm and all staff ( Kara, Daniella, Carrie, Sarah, Gabriella) for your professionalism and amazing job. We are beyond grateful.
