Personal injury lawyers Lawrence Gursten and Steven Gursten of Michigan Auto Law have been named ''The Best Lawyers in Metro Detroit'' for 2009 by DBusiness Magazine. The accolade highlights the father-son duo's legal expertise amid a changing landscape of complicated No-fault and car accident law.
Southfield, MI (PRWEB) November 20, 2008 -- Car accident lawyer Lawrence Gursten and truck accident specialist Steven Gursten of Michigan Auto Law have been named "The Best Lawyers in Metro Detroit" for 2009 by DBusiness Magazine, a Detroit business journal.
The magazine honored Michigan lawyers who are well-versed in nearly every aspect of the law, including auto negligence, personal injury, mergers and acquisitions and corporate governance. The attorneys were chosen based on peer reviews from the Best Lawyers in America list for metro Detroit, by the Best Lawyers in America peer review publication.
Steve Gursten and Larry Gursten were named under the personal injury litigation specialty. Michigan Auto Law (Gursten, Koltonow, Gursten, Christensen and Raitt, PC) is a third-generation law firm with 16 lawyers specializing in helping people who have been seriously injured or killed in car accidents, truck accidents and motorcycle accidents throughout Michigan. The firm has received the top reported jury verdict for automobile accident cases in Michigan for four of the past seven years.
"I'm happy to be named among the best of the best Michigan lawyers," said Steve Gursten, managing partner of the Southfield-based firm. "But what I really hope comes of the honor is more recognition that these are truly unique areas of law that require lawyers who are experts. Lawyers can't handle a truck accident case like they would a car accident case. It requires a lot of specialization. That's why we're able to help so many people whose lives have been devastated."
Added Larry Gursten, founder of the law firm, "We must remember that lawyers helping people remains the noblest aspect of our legal profession. I believe that because we have been consistently able to obtain great verdict and settlement results for our clients, the legal community is recognizing us."
Steve Gursten is available for comment on the subjects of automobile insurance no-fault litigation, commercial truck accidents, traumatic brain injury cases and automobile negligence in Michigan.
