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 . ...Steve always seemed to know the twist and turns that would follow my case. I truly believe he puts everything into winning all his cases and would fully recommend him to anyone considering a workers comp lawyer. Chuck

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...ion i could have possibly made . From that first call i nervously made , having never needing an attorney before, i didnt know any details of how the system works . THAT first call I just felt relieved , Steven talked about the inner workings and how the process goes. He is excellent at what he does and knows the system and made me feel that I was in good hands. DO yourself a favor and give Steven a call , listen to his knowledge of the system and the way he treats his clients . I believe you'll like what you hear and how at ease you'll be after .

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

Thankful for Kantrovitz and Associates

When I got injured, I quickly realized the insurance company and the doctors did not have my best interest in mind. Reluctant to approach just any law firm, I looked at online reviews and realized Attorney Steven Kantrovitz was best qualified for my situation. I made the right decision, as he had my ...best interest in mind and got me the care I needed. Steve is a trustworthy, knowledgable, hardworking and down-to-earth type of counsel. His assistant is super helpful and caring as well! It's my advice to partner with Kantrovitz and Associates when you need someone in your corner.

Highly recommend

I had an extremely positive experience with Attorney Kantrovitz. He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful through the whole process. He fought to get me what I deserved while dealing with a very uncooperative company, he was persistent and fair while keeping me well informed throughout the process.... I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking a Workmans Compensation lawyer.

Dear Josh Thanks so much for the kind review. Very much appreciated. I also wanted to thank you for both your patience and trust in me. I know it was a long, long process with multiple attorney's on the other side. Eventually, after much litigation and fighting back, we got the insurance company to correctly adjust your benefits, secured the surgery and obtained a settlement that will allow you to move forward and secure employment with someone who truly deserves you. Best of luck going forward and keep in touch! Steve

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...s and the treatments I had received up to that point . He explained how things worked and that he had the experience and knowledge to help me thru it. In the end he felt more of a reassuring friend than an attorney. Thru out the 2 1/2 years it took to settle my case, he answered my many stupid questions and concerns without hesitation and always ensured me that the questions were not stupid and what to expect next. His other great asset is his office manager Colleen. She dealt with the insurance company confirming appointments, followed up on paperwork and always returned a phone call explaining the outcome. Steve always kept me informed. I would recommend his services without hesitation.

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
