About Jeffrey M.
Jeffrey M. Steenberg built his legal credentials at SUNY Buffalo Law School, where he earned his J.D. in 2011. The Buffalo law program provided the academic foundation for a practice rooted in New York state law. He has kept ties to the state’s legal community through teaching and association work.
Early in his career he entered practice in New York and established a small office under his own name. Over time he has combined courtroom work with an instructional role. He serves as a lecturer on workers’ compensation matters for the New York State Bar Association, speaking to other lawyers about the practical and procedural issues that arise in these cases.
His day-to-day work centers on matters that affect injured workers. He handles claims under New York’s workers’ compensation system, working on case intake, claim preparation, and representation through hearings and adjudication processes. Client conversations tend to involve medical documentation, benefit eligibility and the timelines that control appeals and review. He has also participated in bar association programming aimed at keeping practitioners current on changes to statutes and administrative practice.
Steenberg maintains professional ties through membership in the NYS Injured Workers Bar Association. That organization brings together attorneys who represent injured workers and provides a forum for discussion of developments in the law and administrative practice. His involvement there and his teaching for the state bar reflect a practice oriented toward the practical mechanics of workers’ compensation law in New York.
At the Steenberg Law Office he manages the legal work and client relations that a small firm requires. The office handles client intake, gathers medical and employment records, and prepares cases for administration or hearing. Steenberg’s public roles — lecturer, association member, and practicing lawyer — give him multiple perspectives on how the system operates for claimants and their counsel.
He continues to practice in New York, concentrating on workers’ compensation matters for injured employees and advising clients on claims and related procedures under state law.
