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

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 . ...
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

I received a letter in the mail from a lawyer representing Workman’s Compensation. They were trying to reduce or eliminate my weekly workman’s compensation. That’s when I knew I needed a lawyer. I knew from my first phone call to Steven’s office he was the lawyer for me. Colleen answered my call fir...
Dear Roberta and Dennis Thank you both for the wonderful review. Very much appreciated. More important, thank you both for trusting me with the handling of your workers compensation case. I know it can be frightening and intimidating to receive a letter from an attorney from the insurance company trying to reduce or take your benefits away. I also understand it can be scary to talk with an attorney that you have never met. I did want to thank you for taking a leap and giving me a call. I am so pleased that I was able to put you at ease and make you feel comfortable with the process. While I am also very pleased with the results of your case, I am most pleased that I made you feel comfortable and well informed. Please keep in touch Steven

The Best in Massachusetts!
When I was injured at work I had no idea what to do, then I found Steven Kantrovitz. From the first time I spoke to him, which was a lengthy conversation, I knew I found the right lawyer to help me with my long journey ahead. He was patient and answered all of my questions, which put my mind at ease....

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...
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
