Very competent ,supportive and understanding.

I hired Steve after I had a car accident. He was very patient and understanding as he guided and supported me through the complex insurance and legal process. It was so nice to have him as an advocate and reassure me the rehabilitation I needed was valid and essential for my healing. He was very prof...essional and helped clarify legal claims and jargon in a language I could understand. He believed in me and I believed in him. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a good honest lawyer for litigation, personal injury or wrongful death.

Have strongly recommended to others

I felt in excellent hands with Steve & his staff. They are well organized, knowledgeable, thorough, and courteous. They made this unfortunate & stressful time in my life more bearable since I did not need to worry about them getting time sensitive documents gathered, completed, and filed. Additionall...y, they were honest and personable which made it easier to trust their advice throughout the legal process. This narrative is not just based on one case; I had to hire Steve again and did so with no reservations. In total, I worked with the team for nearly 2 years and had never doubted their capabilities.

Professional, Loyal, Dedicated, Knowledgeable....

There are so many great adjectives we could use to describe Steve Gabrielson, it's hard to know where to start. Not only was he extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the process, but he was kind and caring - there for us every step of the way. We were left in a total quandary after deal...ing with a difficult injury at work, unsure of what to do next, or how to go forward with our lives. Steve Gabrielson made it simple. We no longer felt like a number, but as though we mattered, that our case mattered, and that he was dedicated to us and the compensation we deserved. Throughout the near four years we worked with Gabrielson, he continually went above and beyond, and allowed us to feel confident in the direction of our case and our new normalcy we were about to embark on. It was so nice to be a part of the process, always knowing what step was next, what we need to do, and what he was doing to ensure we were on the right path to success. I would highly recommend Steve to any individual that is in a life-altering situation, or situation where you are left unsure or what to do, or how to do it. Not only will he get you the adequate result(s) you deserve, but he will do so in a professional, genuine, trusted, dedicated, intelligent, and compassionate demeanor.

Every Cloud has a Silver Lining

While watching our child suffer after an aggressive dog attack, we realized that we needed to take legal action immediately. Searching for a personal injury attorney can be a daunting task however we found Steve almost immediately. Our first meeting with Steve was arranged rather quickly at which po...int he was extremely detailed, took photographs and documented every piece of information related to the incident. We left feeling like we had made the right choice. He worked with the insurance companies so that we did not have to pay out of pocket for the medical expenses incurred. Throughout the process, we had the pleasure of working with both Steve and his very professional and polite staff and would recommend this firm to anyone. He was successful in acquiring a nice settlement for our child and explained everything along the way so that we never felt like we were in the dark. Would we contact Steve Gabrielson again in the future? Absolutely!

Gabrielson Law: No case too big, no case too small!

When I walked into Gabrielson Law offices the first time, I was full of doubts and nerves. Was my case too small? Would I be politely dismissed in favor of a bigger, more lucrative case? But instead, Steve took the time to listen to me, asked lots of questions, even took pictures, and then assured... me that I did have a valid case and that he would be happy to represent me. I left that first appointment no longer with doubts and nerves but with confidence. And so it began. Steve started right away doing those mysterious lawyer things that lawyers do. He gave as much time and attention to my relatively small case that he gave to his bigger cases. He kept me informed when I needed to be. The first big thing that happened occurred quite quickly: He got the insurance company to pay the medical bills from my accident. That was huge! Then when it came time to start final negotiations, Steve involved me in the process, from coming up with a starting point (although he did discourage my suggestion of a million dollars, even though I was only kidding -- sort of) to deciding the point where negotiations would stop. We ended up with a settlement that I was very happy with. I will definitely call Gabarielson Law if I'm ever in need of a personal injury attorney again. And I won't hesitate to recommend them to friends. Thanks for everything, Steve!
