Insightful and Diligent

Steve was recommended to by an attorney that I trust and came on a Sunday with short notice. He worked diligently to gather evidence and communicate effectively with the DA eliminate risk. The case was dismissed and the records sealed, all at a reasonable cost for three court appearances. What more c...ould be asked for?

Absolutely wonderful!

I was acquitted with Steven Metcalf as I ran into an incident. I was instantly relieved working with Steven as he walked me through everything. I was quite nervous and anxious during the whole process. Steven was very caring and professional. To give me proper reassurance, Steven and I hosted dif...ferent conference calls with family members while he explained and updated on the case itself. In the end, the outcome was better than I expected! I have my full faith in Steven and I hope others will as well.

Excellent services

As an exchange student from Europe, I ran into some drug related issues while studying in NYC. I contacted Florian Bruno, who works together with Steven on many cases. Steven took excellent care of my case. Communication was always on point and he did everything he could to achieve the best outcome. ...This is what happened in the end, the best possible outcome was achieved for me - this made me very happy and I am glad that I had Steven on my side.

Best NYC attorney !

Steven Metcalf got both of my cases dismissed with ease. His skills in communication got my warrants and bail thrown out. If you are looking for an attorney to deal with a criminal issue, then give Steve Metcalf a call.

Great lawyer

Hello my name is anthony and i am represented by Steven Alan Metcalf. I want to start off by saying that Steven has made a huge contribution towards my case. He has worked day in and day out to ensure the best deal possible, hes kept me informed at all times so i never feel in the dark and has gone a...bove and beyond to help me. He has a charasmatic charm that makes the judges, probation officers, and even the police love him. I have seen many attorneys and the way they go about things but there is something about steven that seperates him from the rest. If you want a great, hardworking lawyer then Steven Alan Metcalf is your man.

He is a formidable lawyer with superb litigation judgment, pragmatic, doesn’t waste client’s time nor money, keeps things as simple as reasonably possible and is excellent value for money – all the things which most lawyers aren’t.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
