The Steven T. Fox Law Firm, LLC
Columbus,
 OH

A highly respected and experienced legal advocate, Steve Fox is the owner and founder of the Steven T. Fox Law Firm, LLC. Steve has nearly 24 years of experience as a criminal defense attorney in Central Ohio, defending clients charged with OVI, traffic/criminal offenses, misdemeanors and felonies in numerous Ohio courts. Mr. Fox enjoys representing clients in various criminal and traffic matters, but focuses primarily on representing individuals charged with OVI & DUI. While Steve has defended several thousand individuals charged with OVI & DUI and other crimes in a number of Ohio counties, he spends the majority of his time defending clients in Franklin, Madison, Union and Clark counties. Mr. Fox is one of only a handful of lawyers in Ohio to complete the same training course required by police officers to conduct standardized field sobriety testing. Consequently, Steve has been certified in the administration of Field Sobriety Tests, having successfully completed training for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) DWI Detection and Standardized Field Sobriety Testing course. During his time as a DUI & OVI attorney in Columbus, Steve has been recognized by Super Lawyers magazine as a 'Rising Star' in the area of DUI & OVI defense. While up to five percent of the lawyers in the state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5 percent are named to the Rising Stars list which identifies Ohio's top lawyers under the age of 40. In conjunction with this distinction, Mr. Fox was recognized as a Top Young Attorney in Ohio, as published in Cleveland/Cincinnati Magazine, having been selected by peer recognition and professional achievement. Furthermore, Steve has been recognized by the National Advocacy for DUI Defense (NAFDD) as one of the Top 100 OVI attorneys in Ohio. Away from the courtroom, Mr. Fox has been a presenter on the topic of DUI & OVI at legal seminars in Ohio as well as a guest speaker at a Columbus-area Driver Intervention Program. Furthermore, he has participated in training police officers at the Columbus Police Academy's Driving Impaired Criminal Enforcement (D.I.C.E.) training by conducting mock trial cross examinations of arresting officers. Prior to founding his own law practice, Steve represented thousands of individuals charged with DUI & OVI and other criminal offenses as a member of the Koffel Law Firm, where he built a strong reputation for himself and the firm as an experienced litigator who can be trusted to handle the most intricate of OVI and criminal matters. Before that, Steve was a Senior Staff Attorney with the Franklin County (Columbus) Public Defenders Office where he handled a high-volume docket and gained invaluable courtroom experience. Mr. Fox is a graduate of Wittenberg University and the University of Toledo College of Law, where he was a member of Moot Court, and competed at the National Appellate Advocacy Competition in Richmond, Virginia. During law school, Steve clerked for the law firm of Gallon & Takacs and defended indigent defendants as a certified legal intern at the Lucas County Public Defender's Office. Steve is a member of the Ohio Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the Ohio State Bar Association, the Columbus Bar Association and NAFDD. Steve is married with three children. In his free time he enjoys coaching youth sports, boating, fishing and just hanging out with his wife and kids.
