Testimonials Attest to His Hard Work and Effectiveness
Since 1977, attorney Stephen D. Hans has successfully handled employment law matters for clients throughout the greater New York City area. Since the turn of the century, he has focused his efforts on the needs of employers, focusing most of his practice on the representation of small and medium-sized businesses. Before concentrating on management-side legal issues, though, he advocated for employees. Accordingly, he has a comprehensive understanding of the issues involved and the strategies that employee-side attorneys employ in a legal dispute.
Because of his commitment to thorough preparation, full and open communication, and the best possible results, attorney Hans has consistently been lauded by his clients, as well as his colleagues in the legal profession:
- Attorney Leslie Nizin, in Queens County, emphasized Stephen’s work ethic and his willingness to work “tirelessly” to get the best possible outcome for his clients
- Pharmacy owner Bruce Snipes has used Stephen almost exclusively since first opening his business, noting that he offers sound advice with affordable fee structures
- Ronald Terranova, president of Master Craft Marble, recommends attorney Hans to any small or medium-sized business owner who wants to maximize productivity and minimize the potential risks of employment-based litigation
- Salvatore De Vittorio, founder and music director at the Chamber Orchestra of New York, credits Stephen with helping establish the chamber orchestra as one of the elite ensembles in the NYC area
