While there, based upon scholastic merit, he was invited into and joined the honor fraternity, Phi Delta Phi. Prior to law school, he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1982 from Drew University.

Before joining the firm in 2001, he was a supervising prosecutor in the Essex County Prosecutor's Office, in Essex County, New Jersey; an office of 140 prosecuting attorneys.

Prior to this, Steven was a partner in the law firm of Kaigh & Margolis, in Camden, New Jersey, where he maintained a personal injury practice.

Steven is licensed to practice law in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, as well as their corresponding Federal Courts and the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals. He is also a member of the New Jersey Bar Association, the Pennsylvania Bar Association, the Northampton Bar Association, the Bar Association of Lehigh County and the Pennsylvania Association for Justice, the latter, for which he has given lectures on the proper handling of Motor Vehicle liability cases at their Annual Auto Law Update Seminar and also in the area of Attorney Ethics; currently, he is also the Co-Chair of their Automobile Law Section. Steven is also a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, which is an award bestowed on the Top Trial Lawyers in America who have obtained awards in excess of million dollars.
