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

Highly recommend!

I was injured at work and lost the tip of my right ring finger and was soon pretty overwhelmed by process of workers compensation and was given Mr Kantrovitz's number from a friend of mine who used him in his injury case. It was one of the best decisions I made hiring Steven. He explained everything ...in detail and was clear about the whole process. There are some seriously complex issues that come up with workers compensation claims and with Steven's help, they were navigated with ease.

Amazing!

Steve Kantrovitz was my attorney for my workers compensation case. Steve is very direct and knowledgeable and an amazing advocate! He was always available to listen and answer any questions I had. I could not have asked for a better attorney to represent me . He truly works in the best interest o...f his clients. I was able to get more than I expected and I have Steve and his team to thank!

Amazing “Down to Earth” Lawyer

Steve is an amazing person and lawyer. He makes to feel confident and secure through this WC process. He pays attention to every detail of your case. He was in constant contact with me about any and all updates. He always explained every situation well and in “regular” people terms. If I didn’t under...stand a process he would have me on the phone until I 100 percent understood. Without Steve I would be in a bad situation. Don’t hesitate to call Steve if you have a work place injury. You will not regret it I promise you. I unfortunately know how “some other” WC lawyers work with several of my friends and family being involved in injuries. After hearing their horrible stories....I could not believe how lucky I got to have Steve! He is amazing. I can’t thank him enough!

So grateful for Attorney Kantrovitz

after having to deal with Workman’s Comp I was very confused with the process of things. I was told of an attorney to get in touch with and did so. The attorney was Steven Kantrovitz. I cannot speak highly enough of Attorney Kantrovitz. He returned phone calls in a timely manner, answered the many ...questions I had and how to go through the entire process. He really genuinely cares about his clients. Even after the conclusion of my case he still said to call him any time with any questions. I was very impressed with him and his knowledge. His staff were very courteous and helpful also. I would highly recommend Attorney Steven Kantrovitz.
