I am board certified by The Florda Bar in both civil trial law and business litigation.  Only board certified attorneys can call themselves experts or specialists in those areas of law.  

The Boca Raton Observer, a monthly magazine, has named me as one of South Florida's "pre-eminent attorneys" in two categories: business litigation and civil trial law.

In our office, we are passionate about justice.  We believe in helping people who have been harmed by the conduct of another.  We like to be on the "right side" of a case, and fight for our clients' rights.

Great lawyer, and a great guy too
Steven really knows his stuff. He will explain everything in a way that's understandable, and he's very on-top of the cases. Good communication and always kept my wife and me informed. Very happy with him.

Brilliant and personable, I highly recommend
I met Steven under very unfavorable circumstances but felt immediately reassured after doing so. Brilliant and personable, Steven listened to me and subsequently reviewed all legal documents related to my situation. He identified several areas of professional malpractice that other attorneys hadn’t, and explained specific benefits and drawbacks in pursuing a malpractice claim. Steven’s knowledge and insightfulness are exemplary and I recommend him for any (complex) legal issue.

Mr. Meyer is a great lawyer
I had a bad fall in a hotel while on vacation in Florida. The hotel did not want to accept any responsibility for the defective design of the staircase that contributed to the accident. Mr. Meyer diligently pursued my case and made the company offer what I deserved. He could have convinced to for settle for a much lower sum that my case was worth. But he persisted and that was very good for me and my family who were overwhelmed by medical bills. Meyer is a trustworthy attorney.

Happy with Mr. Meyer
I am from another state. I had an accident in Florida while in a rental car. My lawyer at home tried to settle the case, but then referred it to Mr. Meyer. We had a lawsuit in Florida that went on for a while. We had to go down there for a settlement meeting and Mr. Meyer got us a good settlement. My wife and I were happy with the result and definitely would use him again as our lawyer.

I recommend Mr. Meyer for accident cases.
I hurt my neck and back in a car accident in West Palm Beach, and Mr. Meyer represented me. The case was settled and I was happy with the outcome. Mr. Meyer and his paralegal were very good to deal with.
