This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

What a Relief!

Mr. Kranstuber listened to my story of injury, in a compassionate manner, and systematically solved issue after issue in a wonderfully professional style. I had initially been assigned to a doctor who was not concerned with my issues. Mr Kranstuber referred me to a doctor, who has been nothing but in...credible in getting me the medical care that I need. I am grateful that Mr. Kranstuber is on this earth and in Columbus at this time in my life.

Mr Kranstuber was very professional and worked with through the settlement and fought for me every step of the way. I highly recommend him for anyone

Posted by Brad | May 7, 2015

I'm one of Chuck's former clients, and I know what I'm talking about.

I was completely confused by the Worker's Compensation rules, laws, and what to do, etc. Chuck walked me through everything, that I needed to do. He's not a man to waste your time. He knows his business very well, and he has helped me navigate the mess that is BWC in Ohio, especially Columbus. I ...highly recommend this gentleman, if you have need for a good worker's comp. lawyer. And a personal note to Chuck: Thank you very much.
