Fantastic lawyer

I had the pleasure working alongside Stephen for four years. He is without a doubt one of the most thorough and talented attorneys I know. He's not only knowledgeable, but very confident in his dealings with insurance companies. He is tough when needed, but can also be comforting when people are l...ooking for answers. I wouldn't hesitate using Stephen as my lawyer. I know he would never leave a stone unturned.

The Best

I have had the privilege of working under Mr. Longo in the past as a case manager. From seeing his work on the inside, I can assure you, he is thorough, handles each case with a mindful and personal approach. He is a great attorney and when my child was injured, no hesitation, I hired Mr. Longo to ha...ndle the case with full confidence knowing it was in good hands.

Diligent, relatable, and personable

I was assigned to Stephen Longo at McDivitt Law after suffering injuries in an auto accident caused by a drunk driver. Being unfamiliar with the personal injury claim process, I was nervous about being taken advantage of by both the at fault insurance company and attorneys. Stephen was timely in re...sponding to phone calls and emails and answered my questions in terms I could understand. Stephen was excellent at keeping me informed and made sure I understood what was going on at every step of the process. Stephen even checked in just to see how I was feeling every so often during my rehabilitation. Once I had reached maximum medical improvement Stephen immediately contacted the insurance company to begin settlement talks. Stephen promptly delivered updates as the negotiations intensified and informed me of what to expect in all aspects. It was as if Stephen was thinking two steps ahead of the insurance company so that I could make an informed decision without feeling rushed. Ultimately I received a very fair settlement as a direct result of Stephen's diligence and expertise as a litigator. Stephen earned both my trust and my respect over the course of my case. Stephen understood how important it was to me to be able to recover my health and finances lost, as a result of someone else's negligence, in order to provide for my family. I am HIGHLY recommending Stephen Longo to take care of your litigation needs.

Absolutely The Best!

Stephen Longo handled a personal injury/Auto Accident case for my wife and I last summer. Truly exceptional experience. Smart, hard working, caring, AMAZING! He resolved a case in our favor despite a difficult insurance adjuster and uncooperative second party which we were getting no where with un...til he stepped in and provided his services. Stephen was an accessible Lawyer who was always available to answer our questions, visited with us in person, returned all calls almost immediately. Could not recommend him more highly. If you have been injured in an accident he is your lawyer.

Posted by Bob | May 27, 2015 | Car Accidents

An excellent counsellor and advocate.

I rated Stephen Excellent in all categories listed above because he first walked me through the process of dealing with an insurance company which offered an insulting settlement to me when I was doing it myself to recover for an auto accident. He proceeded to put together a case so strong that the ...insurance company paid policy limits and my insurance company paid on my uninsured/underinsured coverage. I really appreciate his professionalism in representing me.

  • 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.
