Putting families back together

I just retained Steven for the second time for an extremely involved case. He was relentless. He followed through with all paperwork and banged down doors, if necessary. Steven ended up getting better results than I had hoped for. Although the case took longer than expected, the results were worth t...he wait. Steven cares about his clients and is never judgmental. He communicates often and at all times of the day. He also worked out a fair payment arrangement that made his fee affordable. Steven Gaitman put my family back together and gave us hope for a better future.

Excellent

I’ve had Steven for prior cases and he handled them efficiently and in a timely manner. I recently needed a lawyer and got in contact with him and he once again came to my defense where he helped me clear my driving record issues. He doesn’t waste time and works with you accordingly. If I ever need a...nother lawyer he would be my top selection.

Job well done

Mr. Gaitman was very patient and efficient. I will definitely recommend him any chance I get.

An excellent experience

Mr. Gaitman was not only a consummate professional throughout the entire duration of my court case, he also exceeded the expected results I had and hoped for. He kept me well informed, up to date, and clearly expressed what was expected of me while remaining extremely accessible. It was obvious to m...e that his great working relationship with the district attorney as well as everyone involved in the court system greatly benefited me as his client. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of sound legal representation.

WENT UPSTATE

Hired Mr Tell U A Tall Tail promised me he could beat the case make a long story short went to prison on a three year bid this man should be a actor cause he appears to be a lawyer but he's only acting does not have real skills to compete with the district attorney

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
