In Nov. 2022 Stefan represented me as the Plaintiff in a MA Wage Act case in Federal Court in Boston under Judge Young. Stefan’s performance during trial was so good and professional that Judge Young complimented how well Stefan tried the case, which seemed like a rare compliment from a prominent judge. Stefan was well-prepared, alert and quick on his feet during the trial which led to a great outcome of our winning the jury trial with an expected $400,000+ final judgment in my favor (after mandatory tripling of verdict amount and legal fees). With my case, Stefan continued his streak of winning all of his jury cases. Stefan’s trial performance was spectacular, and he had a great strategy for each portion of the trial. Several examples include: 1) Persuaded the judge to not mention to the jury that their verdict would be triple, thereby preventing the jury from lowering the amount by factoring in the tripling. 2) Voluntarily and strategically dismissed all of my claims other than the MA Wage Act in order to force the jury to award on the most powerful part of my case rather than compromising on a less lucrative win for me. 3) Ingeniously got around a sensitive issue in which we were constrained by court rules about mentioning an important but sensitive topic. Stefan’s approach added even more benefit while also adhering to the rules. 4) Had video recorded deposition testimony that we played to the jury to destroy the defense on their key issue. 5) Used technology (e.g., animated presentation) was very effective at conveying our position in a very successful way. 6) Negotiated stipulations that worked well and effectively eliminated avenues for the defense. Also, during the case leading up to the trial, Stefan was on top of all of the case and court processes (e.g., discovery, depositions, memos) as well as filings. Stefan worked very collaboratively with me in preparing for the trial. I consider Stefan to be a foremost expert on several legal issues, including the MA Wage Act.
