About Steven R.
Steven R. Dolson built his legal foundation in upstate New York. He earned a Bachelor of Arts from Le Moyne College in 1999 and went on to SUNY Buffalo Law School, where he received his J.D. in 2003. Those years set the stage for a practice rooted in local courts and community concerns.
After law school he entered private practice and, by 2006, had established The Law Offices of Steven R. Dolson, PLLC. He has run that office since then. The firm handles matters that often require courtroom presence and careful procedural work. Over time Dolson has balanced casework, client counseling and bar association involvement.
Dolson is admitted to practice in New York and is also admitted in the U.S. District Courts for the Northern and Western Districts of New York. Those admissions allow him to represent clients in both state and federal forums. He has combined courtroom experience with work that prepares cases for hearing, administrative review and bankruptcy proceedings.
His professional affiliations reflect the subject areas that occupy much of his docket. He holds a sustaining membership in the National Organization of Social Security Claimants’ Representatives, signaling ongoing engagement with social security disability advocacy and administrative practice. He has also played a leadership role in the Central New York Bankruptcy Bar Association, serving as its president in the past. That blend of social security and bankruptcy association work shapes how he approaches legal problems: attention to detail, an eye for procedural timing and an emphasis on clear communication with clients.
Colleagues and clients encounter an attorney who moves between public hearings and negotiated resolutions. He prepares administrative appeals, argues before bankruptcy courts and represents individuals navigating disability claims. His practice involves drafting pleadings, preparing evidence for hearings and advising on options that may include relief through bankruptcy or administrative benefits.
Outside of hearings, Dolson takes part in the professional networks that influence practice in central New York. He continues his memberships and attends meetings that keep him current on changes to federal and state procedures. That engagement informs the way his office handles filings and client timelines.
He maintains The Law Offices of Steven R. Dolson, PLLC, where he represents individuals in social security disability claims and bankruptcy matters. His current practice focuses on representing clients in social security disability and bankruptcy cases.
