"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

Your best choice for a Workers Comp. Attorrney
After working as a dedicated employee for 43 years I was fired do to a work-related shoulder injury. Both unemployed and unable to work I didnt know where to turn to. Fortunately for me I reached out to Attorney Steven Kantrovitz and within a few days a workers compensation claim was opened on my beh...
Dear Walter and Julie Thank you so much for the thoughtful review. It really means a lot! I do remember our early conversations regarding your termination from your employment after your injury. Unfortunately many employers do not understand the concept of a "No Fault" statute like workers compensation, and then blame the injured worker for the injuries they sustained at work. I am so pleased you reached out versus just assuming what was done to you was proper. At the end of the day, justice worked the way it was intended. Your surgery was approved, your wages were replaced and you received a very nice settlement at the end, to boot. I am so thankful that you Julie trusted me throughout the process. Both Colleen and I are very grateful for your patience and trust. I wish you the best going forward. Steve Steven Kantrovitz, Esq.

I HAVE THE BEST ATTORNEY
I am starting this review the way I will end this review that I HAVE THE BEST ATTORNEY. Being injured at work I tried to solve my injury the way I thought was right see a doctor and try to get healthy faced with pressure from my company to participate in their light duty program and my concern that t...
Dear Mike Thanks so much for the review. If you were trying to make us blush! You win, you did. All kidding aside, you were an absolute pleasure to work with, multiple call and all. I truly understand how stressful and complicated this process can be. Over the years you had done a wonderful job trying to navigate previous issues on your own. When it came to this situation, being more significant and having greater and long term effects, you made the right decision to obtain representation. I am grateful that you placed both your trust and confidence in me and Colleen. All I want now is for you to go forward and enjoy your life. Your a good hard working man Mike. You deserve only the best. Again, thank you for the kind words and your trust. Stay well and keep in touch. Your attorney and friend! Steve

Great attorney
Highly recommend. Steve made the process of navigating workman’s comp law super easy. Always answered any questions I had and was quick to respond to phone calls and emails. Colleen was also great. If Steve wasn’t available she was more than happy to help me out.
Dear Eddy Thanks so much for the kind review. Thanks also for your patience. I was so pleased with how things worked out. You really went above and beyond with your commitment as well. You stared the process of vocational rehabilitation. You redefined yourself and found a new vocation that fits with your physical limitations after the injury. My job was being sure the insurance company did their part medically and financially. All you need to do now is shine in your new job. I am, so, so pleased things worked out as hoped and anticipated. Thanks to both you and your wife for both your patience and trusting me with the handling of your case. Please keep me posted on how you are doing with the new job or if you run into an issue going forward. Stay well Eddy Steve
