Steven Gursten

I have been treated with such respect from the first meeting until the ending of my lawsuit. This made the whole experience easier on me. I would definitely recommend Michigan Auto Law for their care and patience while representing me. They have always kept me well informed. Thank You for that.

Good lawyers

It was wonderful working with this firm, I couldnt of done it with out them ! Super supportive also .

These people are the best. They are willing to go above and beyond to help you out! Best decision I ever mad was contacting them!

I really appreciated the time and effort that was shown to my case and to me. The staff was there with me every step, to explain each process and procedure. I could always ask questions, and received thorough answers. I thought I was retaining just another law firm. I felt more like I was being taken care of by family.

I was waiting at a red light and somebody in a truck hit me. I was put in the emergency room and Michigan Auto Law was recommended to me as the firm to handle car accident cases. Picked up my case and won my case. The most important thing that people have to understand is from the beginning to the end, they fought for me. They went up and beyond in keeping up with my e-mails and calls. If I had left a message, they always responded back. They always encouraged me and offered patience. People like myself don't understand anything about the law, and they explained the technicalities to me. Michigan Auto Law always kept that personal relationship with me as their client. In the beginning, I even talked to the owner of the firm, Steven Gursten. He was always available as well. That was a big highlight and reassured me my case was covered on all fronts. They always made us feel positive with what was going on with the case while I was healing from my surgeries. I think Michigan Auto Law is the law firm to go to, because they get the results.

We were sitting at a red light and I looked in the side view mirror and I noticed that the person was not going to stop and in turn, they hit us. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance and when I was there, I realized that my injuries were more extensive than I thought and it was suggested to me that I contact an auto accident lawyer. Steve Gursten was recommended to us by my son, who had did his homework on Steve and he said he was one of the best in the state. My first impression of the Michigan Auto Law staff was that they always made me feel comfortable. They answered all of my questions very directly. They had all of the answers and they made me feel that I was well taken care of. My attorney Steve Gursten made me feel very comfortable. He made me feel very confident. He was very personable and he really cared about me; and he cared about what happened. I was extremely happy with my car accident settlement. It was definitely a lot more than I had ever dreamed of. It was life altering. I would definitely refer Michigan Auto Law to any friends or family. As a matter of fact, I'd be insistent they go to them.

I was proceeding through a green light and a semi truck ran a red and crashed into me. A family friend and renowned attorney referred me to Michigan Auto Law and specifically, Steve Gursten and Larry Gursten, because they handle more truck accidents than any law firm in Michigan. Larry made us feel very comfortable because he was so competent. When we didn't know where the road was going, he led me and my wife. He was just so dead-on with his information and able to guide us. He took care of everything and was there to answer questions. It was very important that Larry made us feel comfortable and that everything was going to be alright, because my wife was uncomfortable with pursuing a lawsuit. Larry knew so much about my injuries, too. I felt like I was talking to a doctor at times. He made it feel like it was more about me than a lawsuit. Steve Gursten was just as amazing. He explained everything and he makes you feel very comfortable. Our insurance company would play their games throughout this process. We would turn to Steve and he took care of it. The defense tried settling for much less than what Steve thought my personal injuries were worth. I had a closed-head injury, memory loss, speech difficulties and neck and lower-back problems. Steve fought for us - hard. I would absolutely refer Steve Gursten and Larry Gursten to anyone trying to recover from a truck accident. These truck accident attorneys made us feel like family. We wouldn't have made it through this process if they hadn't made us feel so comfortable.

My 87-year-old mother-in-law was driving to her retiree luncheon in Harper Woods. When she was stopped at a red light on Kelly Road, a large semi-truck rear-ended her and killed her instantly. The loss of my mother-in-law was devastating for the family. We chose Michigan Auto Law to handle her wrongful death case because the firm exclusively handles Michigan auto accident cases, and they have more accolades and successful cases than any of the competing firms. Even better, our lawyers Larry Gursten and Steve Gursten were very compassionate throughout the entire case. They were always available when we had concerns and they truly helped us understand the complicated legal process following a truck accident, with all of the given insurance issues. Some lawyers we interviewed told us that the loss of an 87 year old wasn't worth much, but Larry and Steve got us almost every penny there was from the trucking company's insurance carrier. I would refer Michigan Auto Law to my friends and family or anyone whose life has been turned upside down by a truck crash.

My husband was killed in an automobile accident involving a gravel hauler truck on the freeway. The left front steer tire of the gravel hauler blew on I-75 near the Rouge River bridge, and the truck hit my husband's car, trapping him between the retaining wall and the gravel hauler. It became apparent that I needed to seek out an attorney. After interviewing four different lawyers, Steven Gursten of Michigan Auto Law stood out amongst them as the guy to go to for several reasons. There was a genuine nature about Steve. He was exceptionally easy to talk with and an incredible listener. Of course his knowledge and the know how to get the job done was apparent. He treated me with a real sense of kindness as an individual and not a potential case. Steve settled my husband's case out of court so I didn't have to go through a trial. Throughout the whole process, Steve went above and beyond my expectations in terms of his hard work to uncover the truths of the matter and all of the things the trucking company did that were unsafe and contributed to the accident. Steve treated me with a lot of respect. He responded to my questions and phone calls very promptly. I never felt like he was in a hurry to get me off the phone. He listened to everything I had to say all the time. In terms of when I had to give my deposition, he prepared me and was next to me every step of the way. That was also the case when I had to go to court before the judge for the settlement. It made me feel very safe. Steve gave me confidence and the strength to get up there and do what I had to do. He did so much research and he explored every possible avenue to get me the best settlement possible. He worked very hard for me. Along the way, he kept me informed of the status of everything. I would say if anybody is involved in an automobile accident involving trucks or other commercial vehicles, to not hesitate to contact Steve. You will not be let down. If you've done your homework and investigated attorneys, Steve is the obvious right choice. I walked out of his office knowing it was a no-brainer decision to go with him. It was the right thing to do for my family, in the wake of such a terrible accident and traumatic time in our lives. I felt it in my heart, and I was right. Another thing I would like to note is that even after the case was closed, Steve is still here for me with advice and all the time I need.

I was in a serious truck accident. But this was no accident. The trucker who hit me had had his license suspended - 11 times previously. He was speeding and most likely fell asleep at the wheel. All of that carelessness left me with traumatic brain injury and life-long disability. My life totally changed in an instant. But Michigan Auto Law helped return my life to as close to normal as possible. I read a lot about Steve Gursten's safety efforts. Not only does he fight for truck accident victims like me, but he is an activist that calls for a safer trucking industry throughout the United States. This hit close to home ... With trucking companies trying to cut corners and forcing their drivers to break federal safety rules, I was the one who got hurt. Steve is one of the best truck accident attorneys in the entire country, yet he spoke to me like a normal person - and didn't bombard me with a lot of legal ease. Steve was kind and respected me, and he went to bat for me. After all of the different legal proceedings we attended, Steve spelled out exactly what was happening with my truck accident lawsuit, so I understood and felt like I had control. When I had any question, Steve was more than happy to answer me. My phone calls were always returned - even on nights, holidays and weekends. For a lawyer, that is impressive. Having Steve Gursten as my truck accident attorney has been an incredibly good experience. The settlement I received is plenty to cover my rehabilitation and medical costs, and hopefully to set an example to greedy trucking companies - that such careless behavior and preventable truck crashes cannot be tolerated.

Larry Gursten, Steve Gursten and the whole Michigan Auto Law 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.

As both an attorney and client, I'm not your typical consumer. My expectations were definitely exceeded by Michigan Auto Law. The attorneys at this law firm are extremely talented, and their reputation is well-founded.

When I was hit as a pedestrian, everyone fell down on me - everyone. No one was there for me except Steve Gursten and Larry Gursten, and my doctor. I have suffered through horrible experiences - but this car accident and the aftermath was much worse. Working with the Gurstens 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 these attorneys to anyone (and have several times).

I was going through a lot and even though I didn't feel like it, I knew I needed to talk to an attorney. A truck had cut into my lane and cut me off. I hit two guardrails and totaled my car, and I'm still dealing with my personal injuries. Everybody at Michigan Auto Law was really nice. They make you feel comfortable and you can call them anytime you want to. Secretaries and attorneys always responded to my e-mails and phone calls. I would sure recommend this law firm to someone who was in my situation because they make you feel comfortable and take care of everything for you. You just need to worry about getting well.

I was rear-ended by a semi-truck at a stop sign in Grand Haven, Michigan and sustained a concussion, whiplash and some head trauma in the accident. My husband found Michigan Auto Law on the Internet and we were drawn to them because Larry Gursten and Steve Gursten are the best car accident lawyers in the state of Michigan. We had never gone to an attorney, so we didn't know what to expect. Larry was very thorough, so we understood exactly what was going on with our case and its timing. was also our attorney. Every time we got together, he seemed to be very interested in us - not just our case - but how we were doing. Steven Gursten was the same way. But one person from the Michigan Auto Law team who really helped me was our paralegal, Joyce Luxon. During the time of my car accident case, my daughter died. Joyce was very compassionate and sensitive to my needs, as my injuries worsened from stress and depression. I never expected such kindness from a law firm. Regarding our case results, I'm very, very happy with the outcome. And the things going on in my life, like dealing with chronic pain, have been taken care of. We have already recommended Michigan Auto law to people we know. It was the best choice possible for a Michigan personal injury law firm because of the expertise and compassion they provided us.

I went online and I was searching for a law firm and I initially prayed about finding the right person. I called Michigan Auto Law and they returned my call promptly. Working with Steve Gursten was a wonderful experience. No complaints whatsoever. The first meeting was very informative. It was such a breeze. Everything was such a breeze. It's almost like there are no words to describe it. In getting my no-fault medical bills paid, they were very helpful. The results from my case were outstanding. I would refer other people injured in car or truck accidents to Steve Gursten and I also have referred someone, as of today, to him. I recommend this law firm highly. I feel like my prayers were answered after my car accident.

Our lawyer that we first had referred us to Mr. Gursten. He was concerned that our case was a little bit above himself and he knew Steve, having an excellent reputation for car accident lawsuits, would be a big help for us. The first time I ever talked to Steve, he sounded like a professional, and even though we started speaking over phone several times, he handled us like he had known us for a long time. He really walked us through what needed to be done and how to talk to the people at the depositions. He helped us immensely. The response in the office was unbelievable. When we talked to two secretaries and paralegals in particular, they were right away to handle us with kid gloves. I mean, they literally helped us through everything and were attentive to whatever we needed. Being unfamiliar with what was to happen after my auto accident, they let us know the steps to go through and really made it easy on us. We literally sat back and let them do the work. The settlement results went beyond my expectations. I can't thank Steve enough for what he has done for my wife and family, and for our future. I highly recommend him to anybody, anybody. And I'm a respectable guy, so, you know, when I say something to somebody, they know I mean it.

I previously had an experience with a bad attorney, so when I was hit by an oil tanker, I was worried maybe my new lawyer wouldn't be attentive or even pay attention to me. But I found the exact opposite with Michigan Auto Law, specifically, Steve Gursten. Steve is very nice and attentive. For as busy as he is running a large law firm, he always takes time for me and I feel he genuinely cares about my well being. He always answers my questions too. Steve and the Michigan Auto Law staff have been tremendous, even in helping with my wage loss. I appreciate services thus far and I will recommend them to someone that seeks services for truck accidents or car accidents.

I was overwhelmed with my settlement. It was way more than expected. Steve Gursten, my best lawyer, got my one cry in 20 years when he called me with the good news (I was in the middle of shopping at Walmart when I broke down crying I was so happy). Even my former attorney was surprised by the auto accident settlement. When I first met Steve, I felt immediate trust. I felt like I'd known him for years. He always made me feel like a priority - even calling me on Sundays. He always takes the time to be there, calling to answer questions and just to see if everything is going okay. I recommend Steve and Michigan Auto Law highly. He's a very nice guy, down to earth and a very caring person that works hard for you.

My auto attorney Steve Gursten 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; and 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 car accident related - and he takes the time to help. I would recommend anyone at anytime to Steve Gursten and Michigan Auto Law.

I had a hard time finding an attorney in my local area that specialized in auto law, or even a lawyer who'd handled one or two auto accidents. I was referred to Michigan Auto Law by another lawyer who considered them to be the experts in Michigan. It's true - these attorneys know their stuff. Now I've referred two 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 for my auto accident case. My lawyer Steve Gursten went for the max, but he 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.

Michigan Auto Law took my case when other law firms would not. Although I did have serious personal injuries from my car accident, my main concern was my lost wages as part of my no fault benefits. Your law firm made sure that I received that compensation. Thanks to my attorney, I didn't lose my home.

I'm not the type that would look for a car accident lawsuit. When this situation came about, I was a little nervous, uncomfortable; I didn't really want to deal with law firms. So when we were referred to Mr. Steve Gursten, I was very happy with the outcome. When we had questions and we gave Michigan Auto Law a call, they would respond right away. Anytime we had problems, questions, situations, they were there. They answered my questions regarding auto insurance, and even made a couple calls for me to have the process taken care of. It was just a wonderful experience throughout this difficult time in my life. I was very content with the law firm employees. I expected a lot from this law firm. They came through. I'm just happy with this law firm and proud of what they did. They even gave me a different perspective of auto accident lawyers. I'm very satisfied with the outcome of my lawsuit and my settlement. I'm very happy with the relationship I have with Mr. Gursten and those who were helping him. As a matter of fact, I've already recommended Steve twice, and without a doubt, I will do so in the future.

My husband was in a car accident and he was smashed pretty bad in a head on collision. He spent months in the hospital. We didn't need just any lawyer. We needed attorneys who specialized in catastrophic auto lawsuits. So we did some research and we found out that Michigan Auto Law was the best at handling catastrophic auto cases. In our case, the insurance company never made a real offer, so we had to go to trial. Steven Gursten and Tom James were our trial lawyers. They explained things very well to us. They didn't want the insurance company taking advantage of us so they fought for us in trial. They were very personal. They made a lot of calls and explained each step along the way very well: what our options were, where we were at in the trial... they kept us abreast of everything. Even though we were in a different city, it still felt like we had a local attorney, because they made house calls due to my husband's disability from the crash. We felt like Steve and Tom were our friends because they were so kind and made us such a huge priority. We are very happy with the trial results they were able to get for us in a timely fashion. The great trial results have given closure in my husband's healing process. I'd also like to give thanks to their paralegal Laurie Chase. She helped us on a daily basis. She was calming and just awesome. I can't say enough about Michigan Auto Law and the professionalism of this law firm.

I was a passenger in a car accident. I found this firm online and I chose them because when I called, everyone was polite and informational. The head of the firm Steve Gursten talked to me, and answered all my questions patiently. The people at Michigan Auto Law are kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and very helpful. A big thank you to this firm!

I'm a former insurance adjuster and I did that for several years. But there's only one attorney that stood out to me and it was Steve Gursten's firm. That's who I called when I was hit by a school bus. They're just the best. They're aggressive but so professional and always return your calls. It's the little things too. is a great attorney. He's really wonderful to work with and helped me and my family immensely.

Steve Gursten calls you by your name and not your case number. He is not like a lot of other attorneys who promise things they can't deliver. He said we will try our best and take it day by day. He is an attorney who returns phone calls and he is very organized and friendly. Every time I met with him he asked about family. I like that he goes beyond the legal duty and cares about my wife and kids. I am happy with Steve Gursten and this law firm. I actually referred Steve to my son's hockey coach.

My lawyer Steve Gursten is very knowledgeable about auto law and what was involved with my type of case. Steve and the entire office at Michigan Auto Law are very personable. They are wonderful. Steve and Larry Gursten are truly compassionate, and return calls within minutes - not days. The results of my settlement were way beyond what I expected. I gave one figure, and Steve shot higher. I have been very happy with this law firm, and will definitely continue referring auto accident victims their way.
