Steve Paley was a man who knew people just as well as he did the law–and his compassion and concern for others was something that earned him the friendship and respect of colleagues and clients alike. He will always be remembered; both for his leadership and mentoring of young attorneys and the laugh-out-loud humor, which he used to make everyone around him feel comfortable. It’s that rare combination of business acumen and interpersonal prowess that made him a one-of-a-kind who will be sorely missed by his colleagues, clients and friends.
