Stefan Kostelnik
Partner
Stefan handles unpaid wage and overtime cases, many of them for a whole crew or shift at once.
Before law school, Stefan worked as a millwright at a rail car plant in McKees Rocks, and he still reads a time sheet faster than he reads a brief. He took night classes for his degree and joined the firm when it opened.

How Stefan works a case
Stefan rebuilds your hours week by week from whatever you have: stubs, texts, gate logs, a coworker's notebook. Then he puts the math in front of the employer.
When the same pay practice hit your whole shift, he'll talk with you about bringing the claims together.

No attorney fee unless we recover money for you. Case costs, like filing fees and deposition transcripts, are separate; your written agreement says who pays them and when.
