About Steven
Steven Chang is an attorney licensed to practice in New York who maintains a presence in multiple regional offices across the United States. He trained at the University of California, Berkeley before earning his Juris Doctor at Rutgers School of Law–Camden. Those academic credentials provided a foundation in both public and private law subjects during a period of study split between the West Coast and the East Coast.
After law school Chang built a practice that spans several states. He is admitted in New York and keeps offices in Miami, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Washington, D.C., and Fort Lauderdale. That geographic footprint reflects an approach geared toward handling matters that touch more than one jurisdiction. He has navigated the practical questions that come with serving clients who operate across state lines, including coordination between local counsel and compliance with differing procedural rules.
Colleagues describe Chang as methodical in his case preparation. He tends to emphasize careful document review and thorough factual development. In client work he relies on clear written advocacy and steady courtroom pacing when litigation requires it. He also spends time advising on procedural strategy and on the practical implications of filings and deadlines.
Chang’s practice is marked by regular movement between courtroom and conference room. He drafts pleadings and briefs, prepares witnesses, and often takes part in settlement negotiations. When matters proceed to trial he manages trial logistics and presents evidence. On the advisory side he prepares contracts and other transactional documents and counsels clients on how to align legal steps with business needs.
Outside courtroom hours he is known to engage with professional peers across the offices he staffs. That network supports collaboration on multi-jurisdictional matters and helps ensure local rules and customs are respected. The multiple-office model also allows him to meet clients in person in several major markets without relying entirely on virtual contact.
Chang’s training at Berkeley and Rutgers continues to inform his legal reasoning. He blends rigorous legal research with attention to practical outcomes. He currently focuses on serving clients across New York and through his offices in Miami, Pennsylvania, Colorado, Washington, D.C., and Fort Lauderdale.
