“When someone I love was hurt in a car accident I wanted the best auto attorney I could find. So I did my research. From my perspective, securing the best legal representation would equate to the best care she could receive. Their impressive reputation and results brought me to their door. Not only was my perception of Mr. Gursten's legal talent right on point, but to that ability he combines good intentions, empathy, people — skills and professionalism. He is at the top of his specialty.”

John Wilcox, Attorney – Lansing

“As both an attorney and client, I’m not your typical consumer. My expectations were definitely exceeded. They are extremely talented, and their reputation is well-founded.”

Ted Pixley, Attorney – Battle Creek

“I had a hard time finding an attorney in my local area that specialized in auto law, or even a lawyer who'd handled 1 or 2 auto accidents. I was referred to the Gursten law firm by another lawyer who considered them to be the experts in Michigan. It's true - they know their stuff. Now I've referred 2 people from my work for the same reason. They made it very convenient for me - they handled everything for me including doctor visits required by the insurance company. I was very happy with the settlement. They went for the max, but they honored my personal request to not bring hardship to any individual person. Steve is friendly and professional and I've really enjoyed working with him. ”

Chuck Frick - Grand Rapids

“Larry Gursten treated me like a daughter and he fought for me like a daughter. He never gave up – he just wouldn’t quit. I had my doubts in the beginning about the whole suing process - nothing ever goes my way. They are smart and work hard and the results were better than expected. Now I just bought my house and paid for it in cash! I would recommend them to anyone. The whole clan is wonderful, from the front desk to the court room. You are never a number or just a name. They really care and they are always working for you.”

Helen Gorecki – Ypsilanti

“It’s very hard for me to trust people, and I was very skeptical. The moment I met Larry I knew immediately that I could trust him and felt the same when I met Steve. I thank God for them every day. They are truly beautiful people. I couldn’t have found a better attorney.”

Kesha Gibson – Taylor

“Larry Gursten and team certainly know what they are doing. They did a wonderful job for my son. They are truly compassionate and have helped in more ways than legal. We both trust them very much and would highly recommend them.”

Helen Massingo – Monroe

“I have learned since my accident that recovery is a 24 hour, 7 day per week job. And when you don’t have knowledge of the legal system, you need someone on your side that has knowledge, experience and your best interest at heart. Larry Gursten is more than an attorney – he is there when you need him.”

Yolanda Brown – Detroit

“I was very happy with the Gursten team. They are very responsive and all great to work with, and genuinely nice people. They made my decision a very quick and easy one, and made me feel very comfortable from the start.”

M.M. – Wayne County

“These were the first attorneys I had ever worked with and I felt the whole team was dedicated to me. They were always very kind and responsive. Steve was very good at explaining everything that was going to happen and what to expect every step of the way. He always made me feel comfortable that if I didn't understand something, I could call at any time - whether I thought the question was silly or not. And, Steve always called back within 24 hours. I would highly recommend the entire team.”

Sarah Graves – Detroit

“Another attorney referred me to Larry Gursten. He said they were the best in Michigan. They get results and mine were much better than I expected. I felt very comfortable with them and I recommend them highly.“

John Hawkins – Grand Rapids

“Larry Gursten is great - he really does care. He's called many times just to check in to see how I'm doing. This has been a very stressful time, and they're taking some of the stress out of it. They really listen and tell me how to handle things every step of the way. I was referred to Larry from another well known attorney because he specializes in auto law and trucking accidents. I've been 110% happy with them and I've already referred 4 people their way. “

Martin Doyle – Grand Rapids

“I was very impressed with Larry and Steve Gursten right from the start - their expertise, knowledge, compassion - everything about them. The whole law firm was so supportive and responsive every step of the way. Everything was dealt with right then; they never put things off or prolonged anything. Their honesty meant more to me than anything else, and it's so hard to find in people anymore. Everything was completely up front - even stuff that's hard to hear - they were honest about everything with very clear expectations. I knew they were giving their all and doing their very best for me - and my settlement was better than expected. I just can't say enough about them or thank them enough. They are the only firm I would trust.“

Jennifer Barnett – Cartersville, Georgia

“Steve is absolutely wonderful. I was actually referred to him from another law firm! He is caring and very prompt with responding to any concerns that I may have had! He actually makes you feel as if you are his only client. He is very aggressive and knows his stuff! He talks with you in understanding terms (instead of the legal mumble jumbo). I actually call him for any legal questions that may arise (even not accident related and he takes the time to help). I would recommend anyone at anytime to him and the law firm”

BB Rosson – Detroit

“Gursten is the BEST in Michigan! And I would know, I’ve been to them all. I had signed on 6 different attorneys over time and "fired" them all. These guys are the "real thing”. They got me better than expected results. I can’t say enough about them - in fact, put my phone number on the web site!”

Jerry Treadway – Monroe

“Larry, Steve and the whole team did a great job for me. I had never worked with an attorney before and expected them to be stuffy. Instead, the whole team was personable and professional and I trusted them right away. They always called right back – Larry even called me from vacation. They know what they’re doing and are the most down-to-earth attorneys I could imagine.”

Ed Falkowski – Gladwin

“Larry Gursten handled a case for my husband for his closed head injury. He is so understanding and compassionate. He was very understanding of the problems that myself and my children were going through after the accident and during my husband’s medical treatment. He always returned all telephone calls and he made an amazing settlement for my husband, myself and for our children. I would highly recommend Larry to anyone seriously injured in an auto accident.”

Kelly Saldana – Brownstown

“When I was hit as a pedestrian, everyone fell down on me – everyone. No one was there for me except Gursten & my Doctor. I have suffered through horrible experiences - but this accident and the aftermath was much worse. Working with Gursten made things painless - they were the first break I had in a long time. They got me the best settlement possible. I can’t say enough about Larry, Steve and the whole team. I would recommend them to anyone (and have several times)”

James Gingrich – Monroe

“I knew that I needed an attorney that really knew the law. And they had to be STRONG to go after a big corporation. I also knew that if I didn’t find the right attorney my family and I would lose our home and be living on the streets in a box – no exaggeration. At least 25 attorneys started calling me out of the woodwork. I’m not sure how they all found me. Fortunately, I was referred to Gursten by my psychologist when I was looking for a better law firm.

They are “Superheros”. Steve is the next Big Time Trial Lawyer. I nicknamed him “Superman”. Clark Kent by day (the nicest guy you could ever meet), and Superman in the Court room. And Lenny is like the “wise owl”. They know the law and they fight hard.

What really mattered to me was that Gursten paved the way for others when they won my case – they set a precedent that big corporations can not put a price on someone’s life. I lost 4 years of my memory life, which was catastrophic for my whole family. My son was only 3 ½ when the accident occurred and I still can’t watch the videos of his first years that have been stripped from my mind. Now other victims and their families can reference my case.”

Angela Fini – Milford

“Leonard was referred to me by an attorney and also a friend. He was very thorough and efficient with the utmost concern for my daughter and her well-being.”

Sharon Starr - St. Ignace

“Steve Gursten is very knowledgeable about auto law and what was involved with my type of case. Steve and the entire office are very personable. They are wonderful. Steve and Larry are truly compassionate, and return calls within hours - not days. The results were way beyond what I expected. I gave one figure, and Steve shot higher. I have been very happy with them, and will definitely continue referring clients their way.”

Gina Cucchiara, Port Huron


“When Larry took over my case, it wasn't cut and dry and he took a risk at the beginning. I wasn't sure how it would go, but we settled for more than we thought. I am very pleased with how Larry and the other attorneys handled everything. I've been meaning to write a note to tell them how much I appreciate them. They were always responsive to my calls and questions, and I really felt as though we were a team.”

Mike Constantini - Fenton
