Recognized in Ones to Watch since 2025 Steven Fingerhut is the founding partner of The Fingerhut Law Group, PLLC. He is a New York and New Jersey employment lawyer who has recovered more than $30 million for workers — through jury verdicts, settlements, and appellate wins — in cases involving discrimination, harassment, retaliation, wage theft, and wrongful termination.
Before founding Fingerhut Law, Steven spent over ten years at one of New York's largest plaintiffs-only employment firms, rising to partner and building a trial-focused practice representing employees against employers ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses. He launched Fingerhut Law to bring that same trial-tested representation to a more direct, personalized client experience — without the constraints of a large institutional firm.
His approach is grounded in three principles: prepare every case as if it will be tried, value every claim as if a jury will decide it, and stay personally accessible to every client he represents.
