Born on the 4th of July, Stephen Mashney has independence running in his blood! Since childhood, he confronted bullies and fought his way from elementary school up till now. Stephen will not look the other way when he sees injustice. He will fight for the underdog and win. Stephen has compassion and respect to others, including animals. As a child, Stephen adopted countless stray cats and dogs and he will not hurt a fly today.
In 1978, Stephen received his Bachelor of Pharmacy degree from Cairo University, Egypt and worked as a pharmacist. In 1981, he received his second Bachelor of Pharmacy degree from University of Florida in Gainesville, Florida. Stephen was licensed and worked as a pharmacist in Florida. Afterwards, he moved to California, and became licensed to practice pharmacy in California.
Stephen soon realized that the count-and-pour pharmacy environment was not challenging enough to him. So, while working as a full-time graveyard-shift pharmacist, he enrolled in law school at San Francisco Law School, in San Francisco, CA. He graduated and received a Jurisprudence Doctorate (J.D.) degree, passed the California Bar examination on his first try, without a prep course, and was admitted to practice law in California.
In 1994, Stephen founded Mashney Law Offices (MLO) in Anaheim without working for any attorney employer. Today, MLO is a reputable and trusted law firm handling cases in various California and Federal courts.
