Stephen Howard, Attorney
Stephen Howard is a founding member and partner at Stone River Law. His journey to becoming a lawyer began with a Bachelor of Music Degree. As an undergraduate, Stephen sat in on law school classes just for fun and told a few too many lawyer jokes. He earned his J.D. degree at Brigham Young University’s J. Reuben Clark Law School. Stephen began doing defense work in 1998, taking a job as an appellate research clerk while still in law school. He graduated and was admitted to the Utah State Bar in 1999.
More than just an attorney, Stephen is also a committed advocate and, moreover, an adept problem solver who brings a human touch to the often impersonal criminal justice system. As a result, his approach can transform cold legal proceedings into opportunities for significant personal change.
Bradley Henderson, Attorney
Bradley Henderson is a founding member and partner at Stone River Law. His diverse background and broad legal expertise shape his dynamic approach to law. A former Air Force JAG Officer, Brad’s formidable experience ranges from strategic consultations with Afghanistan’s Ministry of Defense when he was the Chief of International Law for NATO and US Forces in Afghanistan, to a commanding presence in the courtroom.
Brad’s legal journey began with undergraduate degrees in International Studies and Latin American Studies from Brigham Young University and a Juris Doctor from William and Mary Law School, the oldest law school in America. In addition, he sharpened his strategic skills through the Air Force’s Air Command and Staff College course, studying military science. As a result, this combination of education and military service has equipped him with outstanding logic, reasoning, and persuasion, establishing him as a formidable force in criminal defense, especially in serious felony cases.
