Great work!
Steven and his assistant Colleen were excellent to work with. I had a complicated workman’s comp claim that took several months to get thru however Steven was very reassuring and kept me updated throughout the whole process and I wound up getting payed out a substantial amount from the insurance comp...
Dear Evan Thanks so much for taking the time to prepare the attorney review. As we discussed, I think the reviews are a good source for folks with no prior experience with an attorney. More importantly, thanks so much for your patience and trust throughout this difficult process. Yes, your case was a bit complicated, but at the end of the day, all worked out exactly as it should have. Going forward, I hope all goes well with your new job and I hope you remain healthy and well. Colleen also wanted me to thank you for your patience and trust. Stay well. Steven

A Professional Lawyer that fights for you,
My story: I had fallen at my place of employment and reported to the company that I work that same day. I felt there may be a serious injury to my left shoulder as the weeks/months went by because of continued pain. I did continue working with pain moving/lifting my arm. My employer did eventuall...
Dear Bill Thanks so much for taking the time and effort to write your review. As we had discussed, for those folks with no prior experience with an attorney, or a good and reliable friend to make the referral, people are left with the daunting task of finding an attorney online or worse, via TV advertising. As Forest Gump said, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get" In my view, reviews provide a reliable vehicle for the consumer to make an educated choice. Thank you for taking the time to read the reviews, and selecting me as your attorney. I hope I did not disappoint! More important, I am thankful for your patience and trust. As we discussed, workers comp can be a slow and difficult process, but at the end of the day, things generally workout as they should. I am so pleased we were able to secure a good outcome and that you were able to find a new orthopedic surgeon who actually listened and cared about the well-being of his patient. In closing bill, I really appreciate your patience and trust. Colleen was also thankful for your kind review. I wish you the very best going forward. Take good care my friend. Steven

Attorney Kantrovitz is the best!
When I was injured at work, I had no idea what I was in for. I am so grateful to have Steve as my attorney. He is amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable and responsive, and he explains everything from beginning to end. He is so down-to-earth, very easy to talk to, and a straight shooter; he tells it...
Dear Christina Thanks so very much for taking the time to prepare your thoughtful attorney review. I know it can be a bit of a pain navigating the website to do a review, but I find it is very helpful to folks in their search for a qualified attorney. I also wanted to thank you again for trusting me with the handling of your case. I Know it was a long and often times grueling process. At the end of the day, justice did prevail and we were successful in getting you all the medical care you required and also maintained your wage continuation until we moved in the direction of a final resolution. The end result was most certainly in your best interest. Your only remaining task is to finish your medical treatment and then, when ready, reenter the workforce with an employer who deserves you. I have every confidence that you will reenter the workforce in short order, and that you will be successful and shine, wherever you land. As we also discussed, I will always be there and available to you for whatever you require. In closing, I wanted to thank you again for preparing this thoughtful review and wanted to thank you again for trusting me with eh handling of your case. Take care and stay well Steve

Amazing
Don’t waste your time calling anyone else!! Steven was amazing from the first phone call when I left a message on a Sunday saying I got hurt on the job and he called me Monday morning. He took great care of me and made my stressful process stress free especially when the insurance didn’t want to p...
Hi Nick Thanks so much for the wonderful review. I am so pleased I made you felt comfortable throughout the entire process. You are 100% correct, the process can be extremely stressful, particularly when the insurance company does not want to pay benefits or when they deny medical care. Thank you again for trusting me with the handling of your case. I will always stand ready to help with whatever you require going forward. Please keep me posted when you ultimately return to the work force. Wherever you land, they will be lucky to have you Nick. Steven

My Faith paid off
While working at a seasonal contract position, I was on my feet for many hours a day as a private chef. My knee began hurting but I didn't think much of it until one day I couldn't put any weight on it at all. I went to the doctor to discover I had an overuse injury. The workers comp insurance instan...
Dear Kim Thanks for the wonderful review and sorry it took me a bit to formally thank you on this forum. I am very pleased that you took the time to research and find the best attorney for you. Your case was most certainly complex, from a legal perspective, but I was extremely confident that your case was just and that we would be successful. I appreciate your trust and your patience as the process played out. I know it took a while to finally get a date to appear before our assigned judge. Once that date came, the judge agreed with our position and ordered the appropriate benefits. Following the court order we were then able to finally resolve the case favorably. I know it can take a lot to place your trust in someone you do not know. Thank you for your faith in me. Colleen also wanted me to thank you for the kind words. You are most certainly correct, she is a gem, and I could not do this without her assistance. Steven
