Hired Attorney Mr. Stephen Katz

I consulted Mr. Katz regarding an urgent healthcare related legal on behalf of a family member. He responded very quickly and was available at any time. He went above and beyond to help us even with a consultation, and did not even push to bill for any services. I really appreciate his level of empathy, and although fortunately this issue was resolved and did not progress to the need to hire him, I would consult Mr. Katz again for the his level of professionalism.

Hired Attorney Mr. Stephen Katz

Stephen listened to the issue and had an immediate understanding of the situation. He was able to wade through the data and get right to the heart of the matter. This labor issue was resolved in a timely manner. Stephen and the staff at his law firm were easy to work with and responded to all requests and questions about how the case was progressing. I have recommended Stephen to business associates and would seek his counsel again.

Hired Attorney Mr. Stephen Katz

Dragged the work and failed to complete it. Seemed into the case when we met, then lost interest and wasn't dignified enough to just dismiss us. Instead, he stopped any productive efforts. We couldn't get through to him. Every call was answered by his wife, who filtered us, always gave us her own unprofessional advices (which proved to be contrary to Stephen's), and put us on hold for months. She postponed every action regarding our case in absurd excuses (I forgot/I lost/stuff happened).

Hired Attorney Mr. Stephen Katz

Could not communicate directly with him. Had to go through his wife. He did not do any leg work, we had to do it all and yet pay him for what we did. Every meeting was discussing the same things over and over like we never had the conversation. In the end we were asked to answer questions for the EOC, but he had all of our documents to do this and would not return them. So he dropped us, due to not fulfilling out obligations.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
