Steven Gensemer, if you want a no nonsense pit bull of an attorney HE IS YOUR GUY! When I hired Ashcraft & Gerel I was aware, I had a difficult case. I also knew I needed a man with experience and a master at his game. I came to Mr. Gensemer broken after loosing 12 family members including my ex husband and best friend/ sister 2 months after my surgery resulting from personal injury incident. Living with pain, pain killers, and grief, I put my trust into a man who took control and led me to a safe place of peace and a hefty settlement. Mr. Gensemer worked hard for me, he recognized I was struggling. His patience and understanding convinced me that I had made the right decision hiring STEVEN GENSEMER. I am forever grateful to him and plan will use him in the future (hopefully I won’t have to lol!), however I STRONGLY RECOMMEND STEVEN GENSEMER for any legal issues you may have. God bless him and his family Esther Breslau
