The First Business to Officially Accept STEEM as payment!!!
Hi! My name is Rick Rios and I'm one of the partners of The Law Offices of Rios & Parada, PLLC.
We have an office in El Paso, Texas which is right on the border of the US and Mexico. That being said, El Paso is one of the largest hubs for immigrant deportations. When we get hired on these immigration cases it's usually a family member from out of town that pays us the retainer fee.
SO..... I started thinking. If we were to accept steem as payment, it would be cheaper, faster and easier than the alternative ways to make payments from out of town.
SO........ Now The Law Offices of Rios & Parada, PLLC officially accepts steem as a payment method.
I would appreciate any input or comments.
Thanks!
p.s. If you upvote I'll return the favor!

Clever! Guess Avvo isn't working out? Just kidding. Love the idea and its smart. Tons of immigrants here. It's like a honey pot! By the way my good friend is the guy who was the original head of marketing for Avvo.com (they got 132 million in 7 rounds). He runs a private practice now for attorneys on the net and is off the charts. I'm from Princeton. If you want I'd reach out.

great to see businesses starting to accept steem already
the picture isn't loading (may be a temporary glicth)
Thank you! The more businesses that start to accept it will help establish the currency.
Very cool! How is steem utilized in a transaction? Is there a way to directly transfer Steem, SP, and SBD between users? Exciting news though, congratulations on being a pioneer!
Thank you! Yes, if someone wants to pay with steem then I will just give them my Poloniex address and the can send it there.
Wow! I'm very excited to see where this will go, that's very cool. The concept is so amazingly novel, I love it. Best of luck to you!
Thank you
