While traveling in the Midwest, I was rear ended on a Michigan Freeway. Myself & countless others…read morewere at a standstill in construction traffic. Upon the arrival of Law Enforcement, I was advised "the individual who hit me had no insurance & unbeknownst to me Michigan is a No Fault State," I had no idea what this meant.
For several months I attempted to handle matters on my own; Doctors, X-Rays, MRI's, Physical Therapy, Insurance, Bills, etc. Finally, it became apparent that even I was out of my league and needed legal assistance. Over the course of 5+ months, I was highly referred to / represented by another Michigan Attorney, who shall remain nameless. This Attorney made countless promises & commitments, until I discovered he never followed through on filing even one piece of paperwork on my behalf. This inept Attorney was severely chastised & promptly FIRED.
At this point, I began doing internet research to find "the Best Michigan Auto Accident Lawyer." The first firm that came up was Michigan Auto Law. At 8:04 PM EST on a Tuesday evening I sent an email to Michigan Auto Law's, Attorney Steven Gursten. Very unexpectedly, I received a "personalized response," from Attorney Gursten at 8:13 PM EST. Nine Minutes Later, Steven let me know he was in meetings all day on Wednesday; but he would have an Attorney from his firm call me the next day.
Odd but true, Attorney Jeff Bussell called and emailed me on Wednesday. Jeff Bussell and I exchanged over 50 emails between that Wednesday and Friday; doing my initial doc intake & contract for representation. Unfortunately, during this time I was apprised that my former Attorney, was in fact so incompetent that we were approaching a Statute of Limitations to file any legal action. I'm sharing this very crucial, prompt & proficient interaction with Attorneys Gursten & Bussell, as this is NOT my over 40 personal years of experience with Attorneys within any area of expertise....NO ONE EVER responds to a prospective client like this!!! NEVER!
Thank God Michigan Auto Law agreed to take my case and began their very hands on & caring representation. Had I stayed with the prior Attorney, I could have easily lost all my rights / any ability to acquire several very expensive, yet vital surgeries & additional medical treatment.
There was no choice, I had to have these procedures or I would be permanently & severely impaired for the rest of what would easily be a very miserable existence. Having to bear the cost of these surgeries alone would have financially destroyed our family forever.
Subsequently, I was provided with a Litigation Team head up by Attorney, Kevin Seiferheld. Attorney Alex Kemp diligently communicated with me & organized a Zoom Meeting for he, Kevin and I. For the remainder of my case Kevin, Alex and his Assistant Elize took my calls, returned my emails and provided extremely sound advice from beginning to end. After it was all said and done "My Champion," Kevin Seiferheld provided the utmost legal representation possible. There was never a time, where I felt left in the dark or under educated in how my case was being handled. Never, were there one too many "Stupid Questions," as I called them.
Kevin, Elize, Alex and their entire Team could not have been more accessible, efficient, genuine, understanding, patient, forthright or compassionate & empathetic to my injuries, never-ending physical / mental exhaustion, pain and multiple surgeries.
My case settled out of Court; my family and I could not be more grateful for Steven Gursten, Jeff Bussell, Alex Kemp and "Super Rock Stars" Kevin Seiferheld & Elize Vartanian Simon!!!!
While closing out my "10 Star Review," please know that I'm typically that person who leaves the "Bad, Horrific, Scathing, Negative 10 Star Review!" So, I encourage you to believe what I impart as 100% truthful and heartfelt. Do not hesitate to hire this Firm to represent & protect you, your health, your family and your rights.
Thank you Michigan Auto Law from the bottom of our hearts.
Most Sincerely,
SMT & Family
