Eddie Stephens | Family Law begins in the West Palm Beach office where Stephens’ legal career started.
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla., October 5, 2026— Eddie Stephens | Family Law announces the opening of its West Palm Beach practice at 1555 Palm Beach Lakes Boulevard, Suite 1440. The office formerly belonged to Stephens’ late uncle and mentor, longtime Palm Beach County family law attorney John T. Christiansen. Stephens was also sworn in as a lawyer in this building nearly three decades ago.
“Opening this firm in my uncle’s former office carries a great deal of meaning,” Stephens said. “It is a daily reminder of where I started, who helped me get here, and the responsibility I have to the people who put their trust in us.”
The five-member firm practices exclusively in marital and family law with particular emphasis on high-conflict disputes and cases involving substantial assets.
Stephens is a sixth-generation Floridian and has been Board Certified in Marital and Family Law since 2004. He previously chaired The Florida Bar’s Marital and Family Law Certification Committee. In 2026 he received The Florida Bar’s award for Excellence in Promoting Board Certification. He also writes Stephens’ Squibs, a publication of Florida family law appellate decisions now in its 20th year with more than 3,700 case summaries. All Proceeds from Squibs benefit Legal Aid of Palm Beach County.
Attorneys Noelle E. Stone, Esq. and Sarai Q. Glaze, Esq. join Stephens at the firm. Stone graduated from Brooklyn Law School and is licensed in Florida, New York, and New Jersey. She previously clerked for the Family Division of New Jersey’s Superior Court and has been recognized for her oral advocacy and legal writing as an inductee into the Order of the Barristers. Glaze graduated from Florida State University College of Law and previously represented veterans and their families in high-stakes litigation.
Paralegal Jessica Nieves also joins the firms with eight years of family law experience and works to keep clients informed and supported throughout their cases. Office Manager Latasha Wynds oversees daily operations, client intake, and billing, and brings more than 23 years of experience in professional office management.
“When someone walks into our office, their family, finances, and future may all feel uncertain,” said Stephens. “Our job is to help them understand their options, make informed decisions, and move forward with a strategy that fits their life.”
