Fantastic attorney

Steve, is my go to attorney for all legal issues in real estate title problems, city documents, and trust reviews. He is great with clients and informing every party involved of all issues they may arrive in a timely manner. He takes on completing task that other attorneys should do to get the clie...nt the best outcome. He has been instrumental in aiding cities and towns with many of the documents they have prepared that have needed corrections. Fantastic attorney!!!

Won't find a better lawyer!

I got lucky and found one of the best lawyers in Greater Boston on my first try here! Steve handled everything with the purchase of our first home, and I was so impressed I later asked him to do our will/power of attorney/health directives. He didn't disappoint! We were in need of advice later on but... didn't have much financial capacity at the time, but Steve acted more like a friend than an attorney and helped anyway. He's incredibly thorough, knowledgeable, and professional yet very approachable.

Excellent Real Estate Attorney

As a Boston based Realtor, I've had several transactions with Steven and each has gone smoothly due to his diligence, professionalism and acumen. Steven's exceptional organization skills and quick response to inquiries, facilitate even the most complex real estate transactions. "Five Stars"

Great attorney and a great guy!

Steve is an honest, intelligent, extremely knowledgeable, and professional. I have used him several times over the years and have always been extremely pleased with the work he has done for me. Steve is the best lawyer to have in your corner if your in for a fight. He's got so much experience that h...e know what the insurance company will say before they say it. He explains everything to you in detail and makes sure that you understand all of you options before making a decision. I would highly reccommend Steve to anyone for Car Accidents, workmans comp, or any other legal matter he is a great attorney and all around great guy..

When you need a great lawyer who will do it right..

I am an entrepreneur who has had the good fortune to deal with clients from very big firms. On more than one occasion, I have gotten tripped up with contracts and business deals that really could have done my business in if it had not been for Steven's brilliant strategic thinking and firm resolve. W...hy I continue to trust him and recommend him to others is that he lays everything out in the first meeting. You can make a decision to go or no go. It won't waiver much after that 'cause he just gets it faster than everyone else. And, if he tells you, there are other lawyers who might be better than him at other things, don't believe him. He is like Atticus Finch. He is such a perfectionist in preparation, he can go up against anyone and do it for all the right reasons.

General practice lawyer | Jun 12

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I give Mr. Bloom the highest endorsement. I have known him for approximately 15 years and he was a former co-tenant in an office space. Aside from being great guy, his knowledge of medical malpractice, tort law and in particular, real estate transaction or unmatched. Whenever I encounter an unusual situation in a real estate transaction, he is my "go to guy" for a resolution or an answer. He is something of a perfectionist who never misses a detail, while at the same time, I have always found him nothing but a great pleasure to work with. I am fortunate to be able to call him my friend as well."
