“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

Exceptional
Steve and Colleen are two of the most compassionate and caring people I've meet. My journey after my accident would have been without a doubt unbearable without their help. Unfortunately I was a signed a very difficult insurance adjuster that relentless ignored paying benefits, approving treatment ...
Dear Marci Thanks so much for your kinds words and trusting me with the handling of your case. I am so happy you reached out to me and allowed me to assist you. The claims adjuster was awful and completely unjustified in how she treated you. I am grateful that you held tight and allowed the law to work the way it was intended. At the end of the day, justice prevailed and now you can move forward and ultimately find work with an employer who deserves you. Keep me posted and I will continue to assist you with both your vocational services and medical benefits in any way needed. Again Marci, thank you for trust. The pleasure was all mine. Steven

Great Attorney
Steven was amazing , he always made me feel like i was in good hands. He worked hard for me always made me feel important and always listened to me thoroughly. Steven always explained things in a way i could understand and was always honest with me from day one about my case and what was the best ave...
Dear Tonya Thanks so much for the kind and heartfelt review. I was so pleased things worked out as they should. Yes, it was a difficult fight as both your employer and the insurance company tried to put up several roadblocks along the way. Thankfully, justice won at the end of the day. I always told you to trust the system and the process. I do understand that is hard to hear and believe when you are not receiving benefits and recovering from an injury. The process can often be slow, but justice won at the end of the day. Again, thank you so much for your patience and your trust in me. I will always be here for you should any issue arise going forward. Best of luck and thank you Steven

Extremely Knowledgeable Attorney
I had an accident at work and after many frustrating months of dealing with the insurance company I contacted and hired Mr. Kantrovitz to represent me. The very first thing he did was to ask me if I was OK, was I getting the medical treatments I needed. He asked me to explain the accident, my injurie...
Thanks for the wonderful review Marc. I am so pleased that things all worked out as anticipated. As you can imagine, not always the case. I am also pleased that once we got through the initial complicated issues with respect to what injuries were related to your case, called a causation issue, then things then moved along relatively smoothly. Few bumps in the road, but together, as a team, we smoothed those bumps out. As time passed, I also felt like we developed a great friendship, with both you and your wife Judy. Your questions were never stupid, and I was always happy to answer them. At the end of the day, my job is to both represent you and to educate you as well. Having a sound understanding of all issues in your case is paramount. As long as you understand all issues in dispute, you can never, never make a mistake. Thanks to both you and Judy for trusting me with the handling of your case. Please keep in touch, both with respect to issues of your case and to just check in and say hi. Oh, Colleen also said thank you for the kind words. You are right, she is awesome. Without Colleen I could not provide the level of services that every client deserves and should expect. Take care my good friend! Steve
