Guiding your legal process
At Rivas Law, no two cases, or clients, are the same. From our first conversation, you can expect clarity, precision, and a strategy built exclusively for your needs.
1. Confidential Consultation
A private, no-obligation meeting where you can outline your objectives and challenges, ask questions, and understand how we can help. We speak in clear, straightforward terms - not legal jargon. All initial consultations are complimentary.
2. Tailored Case assessment
An in-depth evaluation of your situation with a transparent discussion of your options. Because every matter is unique, so is our pricing, which is set only after your assessment and the creation of a customized legal plan that reflects your priorities and the complexity of your case.
3. STrategic legal action
Execution of your personalized strategy with precision and discretion — whether that means resolving a high-stakes dispute, protecting your professional reputation, or advocating decisively in court. Your objectives remain at the forefront, every step of the way.

Stephanie Rivas
Attorney and Founder of Rivas Law
Licensed in Kentucky since 2017 and serving clients across both Kentucky and Indiana, Stephanie has built a reputation for delivering clear, confident guidance through complex and high-stakes situations. From navigating high-profile and contentious divorce cases, to drafting precise business contracts, to defending a professional license, she blends sharp legal strategy with the discretion and professionalism her clients expect. She also represents individuals in wrongful termination, personal injury, and other civil matters, always with a steady focus on protecting her clients’ best interests.
Stephanie’s roots run deep in the Commonwealth. Splitting her time between her home in Louisville and her home in the coal-mining mountains of Kentucky, she understands both the pace of city life and the traditions of small-town communities. That connection shapes her practice—grounded in Kentuckiana values like integrity, perseverance, and respect for people from all walks of life.
Her dedication and excellence have been recognized with numerous honors, including:
Rising Star, Super Lawyers, 2024–2025
Fellow, National Association of Distinguished Counsel, 2021
Top 100 Civil Plaintiff, The National Trial Lawyers, 2019–2021
Top 100, Association of America’s Top Lawyers, 2019
She is also a proud Kentucky Colonel, one of the Commonwealth’s highest civilian honors.
