Steven R. Schoenfeld

A solid, experienced attorney with some communication delays

I engaged Steven Schoenfeld of Denlea & Carton to handle a breach of contract dispute for my small business. His 35 years of experience and recognition in Commercial Litigation were evident from the start. He clearly understood the nuances of the case and provided sound strategic advice rooted in his deep knowledge of New York law. The outcome of our settlement was fundamentally fair and protected my interests. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. While Mr. Schoenfeld is undoubtedly skilled, communication was sometimes slower than I would have preferred. There were periods where I had to follow up multiple times for updates, which added to my stress as a client. His expertise is real—you can see why he's been recognized by Best Lawyers—but managing client expectations on responsiveness could be improved. For straightforward commercial matters where you value seasoned judgment, he is a competent choice, but be prepared to be proactive in staying in the loop.
