About Stephen Hartley Wilsey

I attended and graduated from South Texas College of Law in 1991 in Houston, Texas. I am licensed to practice law in Texas (1992) and in Florida (1993 - inactive status at this time). I am a member of the State Bar of Texas, the Brazoria County Bar Association and the Florida Bar. I am licensed to practice in both state and federal courts.

I've been in practice since 1992 and currently have a general practice of law with an emphasis on Family Law matters, Social Security Disability, Auto Accidents, Traffic citations, Wills and Powers of Attorney, Probate, Muniment of Title, Heirship Proceeding, and Real Property Deeds.

Before attending law school, I graduated from Millsaps College and received a B.S. in Biology in 1977. Following college, I first worked in the service sector of the offshore oil industry. After eight years of experience, at the age of 32, I attained a manager’s position over an offshore support facility in Freeport, Texas, with oversight responsibilities for services and materials valued in the millions of dollars. My oil field days ended when I began law school.

I handle cases in Brazoria County, surrounding counties and, when appropriate, travel outside the region.

Stephen Wilsey and his entire staff was very patient with us especially my husband who has hearing loss. They took the time to ensure he was communicated to and that he fully understood everything. And they did this respectfully so we didn’t feel like a bother. I am very pleased with the services provided.

Mr. Wilsey is a Godsend! He got back to me quickly and even reached out to me on the weekend along with having an appointment to see him on a holiday. He knows exactly what the court is looking for to win a case and is organized when it comes to knowing all the events that happened from the beginning to the end. He won my case and ever since then, a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I will forever be thankful that he was my lawyer for a protective order. He not only made a difference in my life but my entire future. He is blessed with his career of being a lawyer and you won’t regret hiring him!

I would wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Wilsey and his team to anyone needing probate legal services. They are true professionals in their field. They displayed a deep understanding of the legal complexities involved in my father's estate, providing clear guidance and addressing all concerns. Mr. Wilsey explained every step of the process clearly and kept me informed throughout, which helped ease the stress of the situation. And we cannot thank him enough for the positive outcome!

I went to Mr. Wilsey with a matter that he doesn't handle. While he was unable to help me with my case, he was very considerate in taking the time out of his day to help me.

My husband and I decided it was past time for us to get our wills in order since we are both 60 and over. Steve and his staff were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. They were able to answer our questions and helped us get our wills just the way we wanted them. Thank you Stephen Wilsey and staff.
