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

Excellent Attorney
I got Steve‘s name from a coworker that was very happy with his results as am I .Steve and Colleen where A+ throughout my whole injury. Every time I called they were very gracious .if I left a message they got right back to me. Steve walked me through the whole process . He told me what was going to ...
Dear Mike Thanks so much for taking the time to do the attorney review for me. For those folks who do not have the benefit of a friend making a referral to an experienced and qualified attorney they are required to either go online or rely on attorney advertisements on TV. Unfortunately, the end result often does not work out well. Other than that, I am very pleased we had provided the services you both require and should expect. I agree that the end result was most certainly in your best interest. I really appreciate both your patience and trust throughout this difficult process. Very best of luck going forward Mike. Steve

insurance settlement and required surgeries
Mr.Kantrovitz and his associates were knowedgebale and respetful throught this journey. All questions and phone calls were answered promptly. The company they were dealing with were quite difficult to deal with(unresponsive on medications ) for days,A call to his office remedeed all problems.
Hi Ralph Sorry it took me a bit to respond to your review. It is very much appreciated. I am also pleased that we helped to navigate the very difficult process of getting timely medical care and prescriptions authorized. Unlike private health insurance, getting medical care under the workers compensation statute is anything but quick and easy. Thanks again for your patience and trust throughout the process. Very best of luck going forward. Steve

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

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
