Client Reviews
Sarah Robinson - Lawyers.com Review
Stephen Jaffe is the attorney you want in your corner.
I hired Stephen Jaffe to represent me in a complex legal matter, and I could not be more grateful that I chose him. From the very beginning, it was clear that he brings a rare combination of skill, integrity, and dedication to his work. Not only did he guide me through an extremely challenging process with clarity and confidence, but we prevailed, not just in the primary case, but in the countersuit as well. Mr. Jaffe is an exceptionally knowledgeable attorney, particularly in state and federal employment law, and his command of the legal landscape gave me reassurance every step of the way. He is a fierce and strategic advocate who leaves no stone unturned, yet he never loses sight of the human side of the law. I was impressed not only by his thoroughness and ethical standards, but also by the compassion and respect he showed throughout our work together.If you need someone who will fight relentlessly for you while maintaining the highest level of professionalism and integrity, Stephen Jaffe is the attorney you want in your corner.

An Attorney Who Truly Fights for You
An Attorney Who Truly Fights for You — and Cares Working with Stephen Jaffe was an outstanding experience. He negotiated a well deserved settlement on my behalf and did so with both toughness and genuine care. Stephen is not only incredibly effective as an attorney, but also deeply client-focused — he always took the time to listen, explain, and make sure I felt supported. What sets him apart is his character. He has a heart of gold, goes above and beyond, and consistently does the right thing. He is tough when needed, but always fair and grounded. Stephen is truly a man of the people, and I consider him not just an attorney but a trusted friend to this day.
