About Stephen

Steve has been a Partner in the Litigation Department for many years and recently became Of Counsel to the firm.

During his years with the firm, Steve has tried dozens of jury trials in the state and federal courts and has argued numerous appeals in the Rhode Island Supreme Court and U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit. He is a court-approved arbitrator for the Rhode Island Superior Court and has also served as a mediator for that court since 1996. Steve joined Higgins, Cavanagh & Cooney in 1977.
