Steve Seidman is the BEST

Steve Seidman is a lawyer that is ALWAYS available to his clients. I was injured at work and was unable to go to his office, Steve drove over 150 miles round trip to come to my home. He always puts clients first, he genuinely cares. I have probably known Steve for over 25 years, I consider him a fr...iend, Steve has guided my family though some pretty tough times. This was a memory on FB "There were some unexpected things done for my family....I truly mean, Thank-you is not enough." ❤ Please show this to Steve, this was 11 years ago. He will understand. I/my family truly appreciate him.

Amazing Lawyer and Man

I was in a terrible car accident a year ago. Steve Seidman and Melanie Fairman handled my case. My husband and I had no idea what to do. Both Melanie and Steve were just absolutely amazing. They were professional and incredibly knowledgeable. Most importantly they truly cared. They were invested in n...ot only my case but my recovery as well. Steve was always in contact with us. I didn’t feel like I constantly had to wait for a call back or reply. I got one right away. He knows the law and how to explain it to their clients in order for them to be involved and understand what is going on. He was successful in my case. I highly recommend him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
