        I was impressed with how in touch he would stay. Was always there for any questions I had and was very helpful with the whole process. It didn’t take long either even with the COVID hick-ups.

        Exceptional and Caring Lawyer I was just as impressed with Steve’s legal and medical acumen as the genuine empathy he possesses for his clients which manifests in the special attention that he provides. He never fails to explain the process in layman’s terms, provide an update, or return a call, email, or text. This instilled in me confidence and trust in his services that greatly reduced my stress levels and allowed me to focus on my health. I could not be any happier with the outstanding resolution to my case and would not hesitate to recommend Steve to anyone seeking a personal injury attorney.

        Steve is a calm and compassionate lawyer who does a great job understanding not only your case, but also your anxiety, stress, and uncertainty relating to the legal process. His demeanor and knowledge offered us comfort and solutions in a very difficult case. It was reassuring that he took the time to explain not only what was happening during the course of the case, but also the circumstances and reasons certain events were occurring every step of the way. He always kept us updated and returned calls the same day. We felt confident in his abilities to win the case and we did! We highly recommend Steve without reservation.

        Hands down the best law firm in Louisville! Steve Klausing worked with us & NEVER let anything slip through the cracks with the details & process of our case. After our first accident was in August of 2017, we finally found Powell Law Firm in May of 2020. Our case finally closed last month, after 3 years. I will always recommend Steve & Scott to anyone & if they can’t help, I know I can trust them to refer me to someone with the same standards.

        After my wife’s accident with an uninsured driver who smashed her, I had enough sense to get a lawyer. I did not pick any, but searched a bit for a firm that would not be too big or too busy. We are do glad we picked and worked with Stephen. The road was long and looked a bit grim but he knew exactly what to do and guided us through it all. Great to work with him. We strongly endorse him and know you will see good things if you work with him too. Do it!

        So Grateful Steve Was On My Case I was subject to a series of surgeries which were motivated by doctor errors and omissions. My search for a lawyer to handle my case took a few turns, once they decided I had a case, and this guy ended up as my co counsel. To this very day, I remain so impressed. He unfailingly returned my calls over a 3 year period, discussing and offering new details to their approach and mine. He was always pleasant even if I had something ridiculous to ask. He explained everything I asked about – and in detail and extensively. But it was his legal and general, talented acumen I saw most clearly during depositions. His homework was thorough, to say the least. Had my case gone to trial, his rock-solid approach would have given us a marvelous shot at winning. Extremely knowledgeable in medical matters, a quick study as he would put it – but I know better. His standards are incredibly high and his sharp retention and attention to detail have no peers in my experience. Plus, I really like this guy, lol. For someone like me, this matters more than a little bit. I feel wonderfully served by his diligence and the care he lavished on my case. I have no reticence whatsoever in recommending him with my highest possible respect. This man is excellent at his trade.

        This was my first experience with a lawyer. I was initially very nervous because lawyers seem intimidating and many seem hard to trust. This experience has been nothing but pleasant. I was having issues getting things resolved on my own and Stephen and the Powell firm really did everything they could for me. Stephen made sure to communicate with me and explain anything that I didn’t understand. I would recommend this firm to anyone and have even referred family members.
