An honest attorney for someone who has no knowledge about worker’s compensation

I suffered a knee injury at work 4/2018. Over a period of months my knee weakened & I was told by my doctor, I needed a replacement. My employer disagreed. I had no idea on how worker’s compensation worked. I sent the same email to 7 attorneys. Only one responded-Jeff. My email was full of dates & ...names of who was told what & when. It also contained my employers responses. Jeff said the detail & amount of information in my initial email made my case. Jeff walked me through the process. After the first hearing establishing my case, my employer denied my claim. Jeff told me exactly how to respond & what to fill out. He was caring & patient. He returned calls & responded quickly to email. He Took time to call & explain what forms were coming in the mail & what they meant. It took a couple hearings & an IME to authorize my claim & get my knee replaced. Jeff was there the entire time. He was patient & explained everything along the way. I will tell everyone who needs a worker’s compensation attorney to call Jeff. He is just a nice, humble & honest guy. He made this ordeal far less stressful & easier to understand. In short, he’s awesome. If you’re new to the system & need a beacon, let Jeff be that light.

What a difference a great lawyer makes

When l got hurt at work my union recommended a law firm , they were no help and gave me bad advice . Then I found out about Jeffrey Steenberg on AVVO. What a difference ! He took care of everything. Whenever I had a question he got back to me right away. I am totally satisfied with his representation... on me and very happy with the results. I would recommend him and his firm to anyone.
