Rating = 0/0 I had…read morethe most unprofessional experience with the Workmens Compensation lawyer Kurt Knisley. He violated several parts of the Ohio Rules of Professional Conduct by threatening to put a lien on my claim, not once, but twice, for simply asking questions and expressing concerns. He violated the following core rules: Rule 1.2 (Scope of representation; allocation of authority) The client decides the objectives of representation, including whether to settle; the lawyer must consult with the client about means and keep the client reasonably informed. Rule 1.4 (Communication)Requires the lawyer to keep the client reasonably informed and to explain matters so the client can make informed decisions. Violation: Kurt Knisley did not inform me nor provide the details of the settlement demand until after the document was sent to the Respondent. He provided no option for the demand letter to be tailored according to my needs. Kurt threatened to withdraw as counsel and to place a lien on my claim in response to me asking him why this was done. Kurt Knisley decided to try to intimidate, instead of communicating and consulting. Rule 1.5 (Fees)Fees and expenses must be reasonable, and any lien for fees must be based on a valid fee agreement and applicable law. Violation: Kurt Knisley used the lien primarily as leverage to silence my concerns. This is inconsistent with the requirement that fee practices be fair and reasonable. Rule 1.16 (Declining or terminating representation)Lists when a lawyer may withdraw but requires withdrawal to be done in a way that protects the client's interests. Violation: Kurt Knisley used the threat of withdrawal and lien in a way that materially harmed my case simply because I challenged his strategy and asked questions. Rule 8.4 (Misconduct)Prohibits conduct involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit, or misrepresentation, and conduct that is prejudicial to the administration of justice. Violation:The lien threat was knowingly misleading about Kurt Knisley's actual intention and was mainly used to coerce me into silence or agreement. I would not recommend Kurt for any Workmens Compensation case on these grounds. Kurts threats were retaliatory and coercive. A lawyer should not try to punish a client simply for disagreeing or asking questions. After all, it is a lawyers responsibility to keep clients informed, and represent their lawful objectives diligently.

I regret hiring Corey Lauer and GB Law to represent me. In my opinion, this office operates more…read morelike a high-volume settlement firm than trial counsel prepared to go the distance. Throughout my case, I felt they were far more interested in a "fast and easy" settlement than in doing the actual work required for a case involving lasting physical and psychological harm. Key issues from my experience: Lack of Proactive Strategy: Vital steps, such as obtaining a psychological evaluation, only happened because I was strongly advised to do so by a different law firm (Malek & Malek). From my perspective, Corey Lauer's office did not appear to consider it necessary, which I found deeply concerning. Minimizing Valid Claims: When I raised the importance of a workers' compensation aspect of my incident, an attorney from this office declined to assist and minimized its value. Another firm saw the importance immediately, and the final records show that a Bureau of Workers' Compensation (BWC) lien was indeed part of this case. Risk-Averse Advocacy: I felt consistently pressured to accept a low offer. The communications I received focused almost entirely on the "risks" of trial rather than the merits of my claim. To my knowledge, there wasn't even an effort to escalate my claim to the insurance adjuster's supervisor. The Final Result: I ultimately felt forced to settle for a low-ball offer--not because the offer was fair, but because the firm's lack of preparation left me with no confidence that they would properly represent my interests at trial. Because I had to do the heavy lifting that they neglected, I requested they lower their contingency fee from 25% to 20%. Corey Lauer refused, stating the partners would not agree to any further reductions. I essentially paid a significant amount in attorney fees for a result I could have achieved, or likely improved upon on my own. They took a large cut for simply processing paperwork, while I was the one identifying the medical and legal gaps they ignored or failed to address. Be aware: In my experience, you may get weak results here. I do not believe it is worth your time or money. There were many concerning issues, and I felt taken advantage of.
