Ms.

I am the wife of a man using Attorney Steven Kantrovitz in a Worker’s Compensation case. Although I generally do not write reviews, I feel compelled to share my experience with Attorney Kantrovitz's handling of my husband’s case. As the spouse of the injured party, I have relied heavily on Attorney... Kantrovitz’s expertise and experience. I have had numerous questions, posed numerous scenarios to Attorney Kantrovitz, and have always walked away feeling that I understood each possible outcome. Attorney Kantrovitz has taken the time to explain “the process” of dealing with a worker’s comp case repeatedly throughout the life of my husband’s case. As a spouse of the injured party, i have had my own questions noting that any outcome ultimately impacts my husband as well as our family. Attorney Kantrovitz has always acknowledged my concerns and to date has provided both my husband and I with competent advice/suggestions that will best support our family while ensuring my husband is afforded the best resolution to each and every aspect of his case.

Dear Kathy and Joe Thank you so much for the kind words and the very thoughtful review. I am so pleased that you took the time out of your schedule to voice your opinions. I could not agree with you any more. An injury at work not only impacts the life of the injured worker, but greatly impacts the lives of that persons loved ones. In my view an injury at work is a family affair and I view my job as such. Not only should the injured work be educated with all aspects of the case, but his or her family members should be educated as well. Again, thank you for bringing this front and center and thank you for the kinds words and trust. I will continue to fight for your husbands rights and educate all parties along the way. Thank you again, Steve

Thank you Anna for the kind words. Your case certainly had some challenges with the positions taken by the employer and the workers compensation insurance company. Thank you for your patience and trust. I was so pleased that things all worked out as projected and hoped. Please keep in touch and let me know if you run into any issues going forward. Take care Steve

Steve Kantrovitz, Highly recommended

Hi, I am in need of surgery for a work-related injury. I have exhausted all of my options up to this point, with therapy, injections, home exercises, doctor visits along with plenty of heat and ice. My doctor requested me to have surgery through the workmen's comp insurance company. The Insurance C...ompany denied it! Steve kantrovitz went toe to toe with the insurance company and the outcome was remarkable and we received everything and more than we requested. I would like to say a few words about Steve and myself. I would have never thought that I would be in a position in my work career of 42 years, that I would need a lawyer. But I did! I met Steve through the recommendation of a good friend of mine. Steve had helped and navigated my friend through some difficult times with a job-related injury. The outcome was an overwhelming success in the favor of Steve and my friend. My thoughts and experience working with Steve are that he is clearly on the top of his game! Has anyone ever met someone new and felt like you have known them all your life? That is exactly how Steve makes me feel. Steve has guided me through my case keeping me well informed on every step. He is very good at explaining the situations and he puts it in a way that even I can understand it. lol, He really listens to me and has answered every question I have asked and he directs me in the right direction. There is something about Steve that, he picks you up and makes you feel good and confident. When you thank him for that, He replies, you don't have to thank me. This is what I do and it makes me feel good if you feel good. Steve is truly genuine! I can clearly see that Steve loves what he does in law and with helping people like myself.

Hi Joe Thanks so very much for the kind words. Knowing that I am explaining and educating you every step of the way is the greatest compliment. Having helped injured workers for more than 30 years, the greatest challenge for my clients is getting a good understanding of what is happening and why. The workers compensation statute is supposed to be designed as a no-fault wage replacement system. Unfortunately, many employers and insurance companies turn this law designed to help people into something it is not and should not be. To me, success should be measured not only by the outcome, but being able to effectively and patiently communicating with your client so they can fully understand what is happening. Again Joe, thanks for the kind words. I will continue to fight and educate you every step of the way. Steve

Excellent lawyer

Steve was the best referral that I can ever ask for. He helped me with injuries such as my right shoulder, neck and back. He helped me get the best second opinion I need for my right shoulder. Steve is an excellent attorney and I couldn't wish for anything less
