Stephen M. Katz's Lawyer Endorsements
"I’ve known Steve Katz for 25 years. Steve is a person you can count on who steps up to the plate. I have known him both as an opposing counsel and as a client. Trust me, facing Steve as an adversary is no picnic. He is a zealous and tenacious advocate for his clients. Steve also represented me personally in a lawsuit he filed many years ago on my behalf to obtain stock options, cash compensation, and other benefits to which I was entitled. Although the defendant in my lawsuit hired the prominent law firm of King & Spalding to represent them, Steve successfully negotiated an excellent settlement on my behalf. I happily endorse him."
