The man you need!
I met Steve Kantrovitz on the recommendation of a co-workers father. Small back history: many many years ago I had a worker's comp case with a different law firm and it was a traumatizing, horrible experience. I swore that, short of breaking my back or my neck, I would just suck it up so as to never ...
Dear Chris So sorry it took this long for me to respond to your review. Your thoughtful and detailed review left me speechless. I know, that is saying a lot with my long winded self! Anyway, I am also pleased that you went into the detail you did with your other experience with the other law firm. Unfortunately all law firms do not treat their clients the same way and do not get the same results. I am so pleased you took the leap of faith to try it again with another attorney and trusted me with the handling of your case. We still have a long way to go Chris. We are now in the drivers seat, and that is where I intend to keep us. And yes Chris, you are alright, and that's where I intend to keep us. Thanks again Chris. Steve

"My Lawyer is Great !!"
Attorney Steven H. Kantrovitz - I would highly recommend him! From the first day of our initial conversation in 2021, until the end of my case in 2022, Mr. Kantrovitz has answered all of my questions thoroughly and compassionately. He took the time to listen to my concerns and explained my workers...
Dear Stephanie Thanks so much for taking the time to prepare this review. I am so pleased that you were satisfied with my representation and that I put you at ease throughout the process. I honestly do believe that the compassion and empathy factor is something that is often lacking in my line of work. In my view, keeping you up to date, educated and calm is an essential function of my job. I am pleased you stayed the course, despite a few bumps in the road. At the end of the day, all went as expected and as it should have. Again, I wanted to thank you for the review and most important, your trust. Stay well and please reach out if you have any questions or if you run into any issues down the road. Thanks again Steven

“Look No Further”
I was given Atty: Kantrovitz’s phone number from a mutual acquaintance after I had shoulder surgery. After Six months of PT my rehab was not progressing well so I called Atty: Kantrovitz. We met for two hours and when I explained my situation the first thing Steve said to me was to continue with reha...
Dear Paul Thanks so much for the wonderful and heartfelt review. Over the last several years I think we have come to be great friends, in addition to our wonderful working relationship. I am so pleased that I kept you well informed throughout this difficult process, and did not put any pressure on you to secure my counsel. You did have a wonderful job with people who also cared about you. That, unfortunately is not always the case. Had everything worked out well with your medical care, I would have encouraged you to return to work, without any reservation. Unfortunately the severity of your injury did not allow a successful return to work. We then had to shift gears and establish a strategy to protect you legally, financially and medically. After much time, we were successful on all fronts. All I hope for now is that you have an improvement in your symptoms and you can start being Paul again. You truly are a good man and a good friend and I hope only for the best going forward. Stay in touch my friend. Steve

A rare breed of Lawyer !
Steve Kantrovitz is a breath of fresh air when it comes to workers comp lawyers. From the start he fully explained every aspect of the upcoming workers compensation case. He was always available to E-mail or talk to and would always be blunt and honest. Colleen was so much help and just a reliable . ...
Dear Chuck Thank you so much for the kind and thoughtful review. Really means so much to me. As you know, it is my goal to keep you in the loop with everything that is happening with your case and to try to educate you along the way. The workers compensation statute can be a complicated mine field and I really try my best to keep you informed with everything I am doing and why things happen the way they do. At the end of the day, justice won, and you are now in a position to receive the benefits you should have been getting all along. We are just getting started Chuck, but we are most certainly in the drivers seat. Steve

Take the leap of faith !
First off , finding out that you need a workers comp. attorney after being denied of your claim , can seem very overwhelming . I did my research and read reviews , Steven Kantrovitz has some excellent reviews and for good Reasons . I choose to trust Steven and his firm with my case , the best decis...
Dear Tom Thanks so much for the wonderful review. What makes me feel best is the sense of ease I put you at with our conversations. I truly understand how overwhelming the whole process can be, particularly in light of your long-term relationship with your employer, the fact that your injury was witnessed, and your employer was very supportive. Why then did the insurance company deny your claim? We both know the reason and I am so glad you trusted me and allowed this process to work the way it was designed. At the end of the day, the judge awarded all benefits you should have received from the beginning. We are just getting warmed-up Tom. I will be with you every step of the way. Thanks again for your patience and trust. Your a good man Tom! Steve
