BACKGROUND

About Steven

Steven M. Raiser is a founding partner and Chief Legal Officer of Delancey Street Group LLC, bringing over 20 years of legal experience and admission to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court. As an attorney, former prosecutor, and commissioned military officer with combat deployment in Iraq, Steven combines legal mastery, leadership under pressure, and strategic insight to guide complex business debt restructuring and litigation.

At Delancey Street, he personally manages high-stakes creditor negotiations, develops litigation strategies, and oversees all legal operations, pioneering merchant cash advance defense tactics that have resolved tens of millions in business debt. Previously, he co-founded Raiser, Kenniff & Lonstein, P.C., handled high-profile prosecutions at the Nassau County District Attorney's Office, and represented vulnerable populations in New York family courts.

A recognized thought leader, Steven regularly appears as a legal analyst on FOX News, CNN, and Court TV, and speaks nationally on debt relief, regulatory issues, and veterans' advocacy. His career is guided by a simple philosophy: "Fight for the underdog—whether a soldier, a defendant, or a business owner—ensuring everyone gets the representation they deserve."
