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

I could not have asked for a better attorney.
I had a very difficult workers compensation case, where the severity of my injury negatively affected my mental health and personal life.I was denied important treatment that would potentially improve my injury. Even though the insurance made weekly payments, it was not even close to my regular salar...
Dear Diana Thanks so much for the kind and heart felt review. I am so pleased that I met your expectations in the handling of the case. I know it was a long, long road with a lot of fighting with the insurance company with what you required medically and also finally reaching a fair and appropriate settlement. You had done pretty well handling things on your own for a while. When things got more tricky, you did the right thing reaching out to a qualified and experienced attorney. Hopefully your research and the attorney reviews helped in your decision making process. In the end, I agree that all went well and that we reached a fair resolution of your case. Again, thank you for your patience and your trust in me. Steven Steven H. Kantrovitz, Esq.

You Need Steve in Your Corner!!
The first time I met Steve, I knew he was the real deal. He is sharp, does his due diligence, and knows what he is talking about. Steve is very professional and knowledgeable. No matter how many questions that we had, he would listen and answer them in a way that us regular folks would understand. S...
Dear Annie Thank you so much for the kind words and the wonderful review. More important than anything, to me, is that I made you feel comfortable and well informed throughout the process. I think many attorneys fail to comprehend that the people they represent do not have a good understanding of the ins and outs of a case and the law, and need to be educated and informed of what is happening. I am pleased that I was able to provide that essential service. I am also pleased that things worked out as hoped and expected. You truly did have a complicated case, but in the end we carried our burden and we were successful. Thank you again for all of your trust and patience and I wish you happiness going forward. 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.
