In dealing with a recent foreclosure situation, I was luckily referred to Garmo & Kriste, PLC., where Brian Garmo took on my case. Brian was excellent in assisting me with settling the lawsuit. He was exceptional in his punctuality, personal skills, and professionalism. I was astonished with his resourcefulness and connections to other professionals within this field, which ultimately helped to settle my case. I would highly recommend Brian Garmo and his law firm... I know I definitely will seek their expertise in the future when needed!

Two weeks after moving to Michigan I was involved in an accident and recieved a citation. My initial consulation with Garmo and Kiste was thorough and very helpful. Brian was honest and upftont explaining the details/complications of my case. After speaking to a few other firms that were not as professional or honest, it was clear that I needed to retain Garmo and Kiste.
I could not be happier with my decision to retain Garmo and Kiste and I will definitely keep them on file for any future legal needs! Brian went to court for me, saving me from taking off work, and got my fine reduced and no points on my license!
If you need legal help, give these guys a call!

Brian Garmo recently represented me in a legal matter. He was friendly, easy to approach and didn’t judge me. He demonstrated a vast knowledge of the court system and handled my case with the utmost professionalism. He thoroughly explained the potential consequences and my choices so that I could make informed decisions. He also wrote a detailed memorandum for the judge to review, which I believe to be a key factor in the positive outcome of my case. I would definitely use him in the future and recommend his Garmo & Kiste, PLC to others.

He was compassionate and yet realistic. He would take the time to listen to you and help you as much as possible within reason. I feel that he was very level-headed, attentive and knowledgeable on my legal matters and explained the steps in layman's term which eased my mind so I could focus on living my life.

Matt Van Steenkiste did an amazing job helping me reduce my traffic violation to NO points! He certainly demonstrated his vast knowledge of the court system and handled my matter with the utmost professionalism and urgency. When I worried about it, he said "I will just do my thing. It'll be fine." And he sure did! Who wouldn't seek out an attorney who is this confident, reassuring, and effective? I will definitely call Matt the next time I have any similar legal issues and will refer him to everyone I know.

Garmo & Kiste were able to successfully represent me in my legal matter because, as promised, they had the experience and insight to achieve success where others would not even have ventured.

I had a criminal case in Oakland County that Matt helped me through (and we all know Oakland County is not the best place to have a criminal case). He was prompt to get back to me when I called, even though he usually answered the phone. His work in the courtroom was outstanding, the fee's were reasonable, and he didn't miss a beat with filing memorandums that were needed for my case. He was very familiar with the judges, the prosecutors, and the girls behind the glass at the courthouse (which made me feel much better that everything that could be done actually got done). Matt even took the time to talk to someone he knew at the family court in Macomb County for me as I needed information about my family court case (and he didn't charge me extra). Although, I expect I will never need him again with a criminal case in any County, I would hire him again in a heart beat. I also wouldn't hesitate to recommend Matt to my close friends and family--which is why I wrote this review. If someone needs an attorney for a criminal case (or any legal matter) in Oakland County or Macomb County the first stop should be to these guys. I couldn't be more satisfied with Matt as my attorney. Thanks a bunch. I really appreciate all of your hard work!

Matt Van Steenkiste represented me on two occasions. The first case was a mortgage settlement where Matt successfully negotiated a minimal settlement that I was extremely happy with. The second case was a divorce case which Matt helped me to successfully negotiate an extremely fare settlement in very turbulent situation. I would describe Matt as knowledgeable, professional, calming, and aggressive. Matt gave me a peace of mind that I was being represented by someone who cared about my situation.
