"Steve is a force in the legal world. As his law clerk, I was able to witness firsthand the power of his clout, experience, and intuition. Unlike anyone else I've worked with, Steve is able to achieve advantageous results for clients in precarious situations. Steve is an excellent choice for any professional facing serious charges. Steve adds unparalleled value to such clients, owing in large part to the breadth of his carefully managed professional relationships and high-level strategic thinking."

Criminal defense lawyer | May 24

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse this lawyer's work. Mr Ungar is one of the finest attorneys I have ever known. He is smart, diligent, resourceful, and honest. Mr Ungar is respected by his colleagues and his adversaries, and by the judges before whom he appears. I have referred clients to Mr Ungar, always with the certain knowledge that Mr Ungar will take good care of them. Not only does Mr Ungar have all the skills of a savvy litigator, but Mr Ungar is one of those rare attorneys who thinks strategically, always cognizant of the bigger picture. Any attorney who has the privilege to work with Mr Ungar comes away from the experience dazzled by this man's intellect and his commitment to the client. I cannot think of an attorney who would be a better choice for defense in a complex Federal criminal matter. I give my highest rating to Mr Ungar. He is truly a credit to the criminal defense bar."
