A man with Integrity

Mr.Rensch shoots straight from the hip. I was in tears of joy after he took control and quickly helped someone out when others turned me a way for more than two weeks. If you ask Avvo and Mr. Rensch responds, be wise and listen as his experience cannot be ignored. Thank you sir. You are a class a...ct. I would wash your feet for your time today.

Excellent Attorney

I highly recommend Steve Rensch (Mesa, AZ). He is extremely knowledgeable, and what impressed me most was how honest Steve was about the choices we could make in our situation, and how he then helped us through the legal process, step by step, with a lot of patience and professionalism.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2015.

Probation issued in AZ, 2015

updated on 09/08/2017

Probation means an attorney did something wrong but may still practice law. The State monitors the lawyer's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.

Steven’s comment:

“The probation is over. The problem stemmed from a mistake by Chase Bank, which acknowledged the mistake in a writing to the Bar. However, the Bar decided that I had "intimidated" Chase into writing the letter, despite lack of any evidence. When that potential charge failed, the Bar collected all my trust account documents and found mathematical mistakes. They were corrected.”
