Brenda Anderson
I engaged Stephen Kravit and his firm to handle a complex commercial dispute involving a former business partner. There is no question about his legal acumen or his deep experience, which his recognition in Best Lawyers for Commercial Litigation clearly reflects. His strategic thinking, honed over decades of practice, was evident in our case's direction. We ultimately reached a settlement that protected my interests, and I believe his reputation and skill contributed to that outcome. However, my experience was mixed on the client-service side. While Stephen himself was sharp in meetings, there were often significant delays in receiving updates or responses to emails, which were typically handled by junior staff. For the premium rates commanded by a Harvard-educated attorney with his stature, I expected more consistent, direct communication. The legal work was solid and professional, but the process felt somewhat impersonal and reactive at times. For straightforward matters requiring a heavy hitter, he is a formidable choice, but be prepared to manage your expectations regarding day-to-day accessibility and client liaison.
