Kentuckiana’s Trusted Advocate.

At the heart of Rivas Law, a proudly woman-owned firm, is Stephanie Rivas, an attorney who believes you matter more than any case file. This philosophy guides every conversation, strategy, and step she takes on your behalf.

Licensed in Kentucky since 2017 and serving clients in Kentucky and Indiana, Stephanie has been recognized as a Rising Star by Super Lawyers in 2024–2025, a Fellow of the National Association of Distinguished Counsel in 2021, one of The National Trial Lawyers’ Top 100 Civil Plaintiff attorneys from 2019–2021, and among the Association of America’s Top Lawyers in 2019.
