He practices before the office of the Alcoholic Beverage Control Commissioner for the acquisition and transfer of liquor licenses, as well as related enforcement actions. He has also developed and maintained a creditors rights, insolvency, bankruptcy, and asset protection practice. He is a graduate of the University of Delaware and earned his law degree from Widener University Delaware Law School.
Like his father, Stephen A. Spence is a graduate of the University of Delaware and Widener University Delaware Law School. He clerked with Justice James T. Vaughn when he was President Judge of the Delaware Superior Court. He also served as Judicial Extern to Judge Joseph R. Slights when he was on the Superior Court. He assists businesses with contracts, leases, real estate, and other commercial matters including litigation. He intends to focus his efforts on commercial and tort litigation, and the firm’s business and corporate practices.
BMB’s managing partner, Kevin Baird, states that “our firm has methodically focused on attracting top-tier talent with sophisticated major-market experience to central and southern Delaware. We are excited to welcome this dynamic father and son duo. Stephen W.’s experience and southern Delaware client-base will complement the firm’s existing clients and practice areas. Stephen A. has proven himself to be a rock-star associate, and we look forward to incorporating him into the firm as he continues to develop his own book of business.” Baird commented, “the addition of ‘team Spence’ is just the latest example of our mission to build the best, most comprehensive law firm serving Kent and Sussex counties.”
Although Stephen W. and Stephen A. will be based in the firm’s Lewes office will also spend time at the firm’s other locations and handle cases throughout the state.
