Stephen K. Brooks
Biography
Stephen K. Brooks practices at the Brooks Law Group with offices in Tampa, Lakeland, and Winter Haven, Florida. He can be reached at steve@brookslawgroup.com or 1-888-We-Mean-It. Steve received his B.A. Degree from Stetson University and his law degree from Stetson University College of Law. Steve also had the opportunity to study at Oxford University through an arrangement with Stetson University College of Law. He then joined a six-member law firm. The diverse experience he gained there has been invaluable to his own firm. It is the basis of a wide pool of practical knowledge and personal contacts from which he continues to draw. Steve devotes all of his current practice to “people” problems, personal injury, wrongful death, and social security disability. His widespread success in these areas is quickly creating a reputation of a force to be reckoned with. Yet he is easy to talk to and his sincerity quickly turns clients into friends. One of the reasons for Steve’s success is immediately apparent. He is the rare combination of a “can-do” individual with a no-nonsense approach to getting things done. He cares about the people he represents… and it shows. Raised in the Winter Haven area, Steve maintains his close ties in the community. He currently serves on the Board of Directors of Tri-County Human Services, Inc. (http://www.tchsonline.com/home/). He has also served on the Board of Directors of Meals on Wheels. He is a member in the local Chamber of Commerce and on the professional side, is a member of The Florida Bar, an Eagle member of The Florida Justice Association and The Polk County Trial Lawyers Association. Steve is also a member of the Association of Plaintiff Interstate Trucking Lawyers of America. Steve has received the following honors and recognition: Selected as one of the Top 100 trial lawyers in the State of Florida by the National Trial Lawyers Association in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014.
