About Steven

Learn Steven’s areas of practice.

“We keep the pressure on the insurance companies. We are determined and we never let up. We’ve earned a reputation for moving our cases forward, as quickly as possible.”

A warm and caring lawyer known for his success with medical malpractice cases and construction accidents, Steve Hymowitz is experienced in serving people who need help, but who do not have the resources to fight the big insurance companies on their own. With Steve, say fellow attorneys, “it’s all about his clients.”

When accidents happen, people want to get their lives back on track as quickly as possible. However, there are dozens of ways in which insurance companies try to stonewall and drag out the process. Says Steve: “Our response is to keep the pressure on them. We are determined and we never let up.”

Steve views his law practice as a way to balance the scales of justice for seriously injured accident victims. He states, “Every year, there are numerous medical malpractice and accident cases in our region that are never brought because people do not know their rights or they are hesitant to try because they feel that the odds are stacked heavily against them. Our firm reaches out to those victims. We are here to go after the insurance companies and make sure that they adequately compensate you.”

At some workplaces, construction workers are literally putting their lives on the line every day. When workplace safety rules are violated, as they too often are, the results can be devastating. Steve tries to make sure that the immediate and long-term financial needs of the injured worker are addressed.

Steven is an avid golfer and tennis player, and enjoys the outdoors, often on long walks with his dog Bushee. An active member of two synagogues in his community, Steve is also extremely active in various charitable functions.

Highly Recommend Fellows Hymowitz Rice
I was so thankful to be recommended to call Fellows Hymowitz Rice when I got into a car accident on the GWB in New York. I conveniently met with Steven Hymowitz at his office in New City. They handled my case very professionally and went above and beyond to make sure all paperwork and history of my treatment was correctly documented and reported. I was so happy to be assigned to Martha, his paralegal. Together they advised and supported me through the entire process, and fought until I received what Mr. Hymowitz felt was fair. I highly recommend them to anyone needing legal help!! Ask for Steven Hymowitz and Martha!

Professional Honest and Caring
I was injured in a very bad accident and Mr. Hymowitz was highly recommended to me by one of my associates. He immediately took charge and advised me on how to proceed with things on my end. His paralegal Lynn Hopkins helped me gather all of my paperwork and medical records and supported me though out the process. Mr. Hymowitz also appointed another attorney from his office Mr. Rice. Matt Rice got down in the trenches and went to work battling with the other attorneys by presenting all of the facts and truths of the case which resulted in a very positive judgement for me . I would highly recommend Mr. Hymowitz and his team to anyone who seeks justice and a honest settlement. Tony

Fierce Negogiator
I have recently had the need for legal counsel in an accident case where I was the plaintiff. I did not have an attorney at the time and Fellows Horowitz, PC came highly recommended. Steve Hymowitz represented me on this case and Martha Agis was his paralegal. They both did a wonderful job and kept me informed every step of the way. Steve is a fierce negotiator and the case turned out better than I could have imagined. I would highly recommend Fellows Hymowitz, PC in New City to anyone who is looking for a great personal injury lawyer.

Mother of Client
As my daughter was a minor when we first contacted Mr. Hymowitz, I was very much involved with the case. Mr. Hymowitz was a pleasure to work with. He is one of, if not THE most professional, honest and hard-working attorney I have ever met. (I've know quite a few as I was a former litigation paralegal.) Steven Hymowitz is top-notch! He knows the law, he fights for his client and he obtained a result that far exceeded my expectation. I would highly recommend him as an attorney. I am and forever will be so very grateful for what he did for my daughter. God Bless you Steven Hymowitz! All of your hard work paid off and I couldn't be happier with the results. You're an A+ in my book!

Amazing Lawyer
I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Hymowitz due to a severe leg injury I sustained and needed legal representation. Mr. Hymowitz and his staff were extremely helpful and took care of everything and made sure that we prepared for the best possible outcome. Due to his expertise and never ending drive, we were able to win the case! I would have never been in the position that I am in today without Mr. Hymowitz and his staff. I am forever grateful and would recommend him to anyone needing legal assistance.

Excellent Person, Stellar Attorney
Mr. Hymowitz got me more money than I ever expected, in a case other lawyers wouldn't take because it was so unlikely to succeed. So clearly he does fabulous work, but equally important - Mr. Hymowitz is approachable, personable, honest, patient, friendly, and clear. I am exceptionally pleased and very grateful. Highly recommend.

personal injury
Mr. Hymowitz represented my 15 year old daughter for a birth related injury. We are New York residents and as such it was necessary for the matter to be brought in New Jersey courts. M. Hymowitz showed a high degree of compassion and understanding towards my daughter in discussing the case with her and preparing her for court. In court, Mr. Hymowitz was very professional and knowledgeable of both New Jersey law and court proceedings. We would strongly recommend Mr. Hymowitz if you require an attorney for a personal injury lawsuit. new jersey

Very helpful
Steve took the time throughout my case to help me understand everything and always make sure that any medical billing issues I had we're handled by his staff during a very confusing and emotional time. He handled my case with patience and ended it with the best results possible. I definitely recommend him.
