I’ve worked with Steve for over 22 years, and he’s been an invaluable partner in navigating my professional journey. Across four different companies, he’s helped me negotiate employment contracts that consistently protected my interests and positioned me for long-term success. His deep legal expertise, strategic mindset, and calm, confident demeanor make even the most complex situations feel manageable. He listens carefully, responds quickly, and always provides clear, thoughtful guidance. Whether I needed a sharp negotiator, a trusted advisor, or just someone to talk through options with, he’s been there every step of the way. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
Steven is passionate about his work, and it showed throughout our legal proceedings. I always felt like he was a part of our company's team. I would highly recommend Steven and his staff. I hope we do not find ourselves in any further legal actions but knowing I can turn to Employer Advocate Group eases the thought of any such occurrence from arising.
I have worked with Steve for over 15 years now across various employment matters. Steve helped me handle my first employee dispute when we were only a 5 person team, and has continued to support me over time as we have grown to 110+ team members. Steve as always been very responsive and pragmatic in handling our needs, and he is just an all around good guy. I hghly reoemeend him!
I solicited Steve Chanley’s services on the advice of a business associate who had a positive experience with him. This was after trying two other lawyers in my area. So, my review here is based not only on Steve's performance in and of itself, but also as it compares to others in his field with whom I have had direct experience. Simply put, Steve's performance is head and shoulders above the others, and in fact the best experience I have ever had with any lawyer. I highly recommend him.
