This experience on the defense side, combined with the knowledge of how the insurance industry evaluates claims, makes Steve the best trial lawyer to hire for your case.
Client testimonial:
"I met Steve through my sister in law back in 2020 when my husband got into a very bad motorcycle accident. It was a very a traumatic time for our family as not only that the accident caused my husband to almost lose his life, sustain multiple injuries that are lifelong, hospital and medical bills but also had challenged his mental health that put our happy marriage to test. It was the most challenging time as a young couple raising our few months old son at that time. During this very stressful and difficult period, Steve was there to give us piece of mind and confidence that there is light at the end of the tunnel. He was very communicative, represented us well and really prepared us for depositions. He is seriously the best and his knowledge and service are exceptional! He is very genuine, really cared and wanted the best for us. Even after the case was settled, he was there to check in on us and guide us in every way he can. We feel very happy that Steve handled our case. We are forever grateful for Steve and we highly recommend him!"
— Sheevah Eastman
Steve Crandall is a trial lawyer with a unique background that sets him apart from other attorneys. Born and raised in a tight-knit, lower middle-class family in rural New York, Steve moved frequently throughout his childhood, living in 12 different cities before graduating from Dayton Law School in 1994.
Steve's upbringing instilled in him a knack for adapting quickly to new environments and engaging with people from all walks of life. He understands the importance of building strong relationships with his clients and has a talent for connecting with them on a personal level. Part of Steve’s outgoing personality is derived from having to constantly cut a path as the “new kid in class.”
While his mom and dad were always supportive, Steve put himself through law school by combining money earned as a waiter, with loans taken out for classes and living expenses. At the conclusion of law school, Steve owed well over $100,000 in loans, with a very minimal starting salary to repay these loans and to live on. It is not an exaggeration to say Steve’s early years were spent learning to be a trial lawyer (in a really cheap suit), while trying to figure out how to buy food and pay rent. These struggles were formative, but now motivate Steve to help his clients out of the financial crises that they often face after a wrongful catastrophic tragedy has befallen them by the negligence of a defendant.
Having been raised in a large Italian family (his mother is Sicilian) a big part of Steve is his family. Steve is married to his wife Rachel and is the proud father of five children: Jackson, Julia, Sam, Maximus, and Brooklyn. Throw in the two French Bulldogs and the house is a ball of energy and chaos. As someone who has experienced firsthand the challenges of raising a large family, Steve has a deep understanding of the disruptions that injuries and tragedies can cause the family unit. He believes that his experiences raising his children, especially his daughter Brooklyn who has T1D, have given him valuable insight into the damages that children can suffer and the effects it can have on the entire family. This is particularly true in birth injury cases, where Steve’s experiences as a father and advocate for his daughter have helped him better understand the damages and struggles that families can face. Despite his rigorous schedule as a trial lawyer, Steve makes school events, sporting events, and vacations with his family a priority. He believes that putting his family first, while juggling the demands of his job, gives him a unique perspective that he can apply to his legal practice and client relationships.
With his unique background and experiences, Steve Crandall is a compassionate and effective trial lawyer who understands his clients' needs and is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for them.

As a seasoned trial lawyer, Steve has had the privilege of speaking at numerous conferences and seminars throughout my career. He has been a speaker at conferences such as the Annual Winter Conference on Obstetrics/Gynecology, How to Win a Civil Trial, and the Annual Winter Conference on Clinical Issues.
Additionally, he has had the opportunity to present at educational institutions such as Cleveland Marshall School of Law, where he spoke on Medical Malpractice Trial Tactics. Furthermore, he was a featured speaker on Expert Witness Presentation at Trial for the Ohio State Bar Association, and spoke on Focus Groups in Ohio, as well as The Young Lawyers Section at the Ohio Association of Justice Spring Convention.
At the Ohio Association of Justice Annual Convention, Steve presented on the effects of social media on Jury Selection and Jury Verdicts, and also gave a talk on Social Media and Jury Selection at the Ohio Trial Lawyers Spring Convention. Steve has been asked to return as speaker many times, for example serving as a speaker at the Conference on Fetal Monitoring for several years in Las Vegas, Nevada. He conducted a statewide research project on various issues facing trial lawyers in Ohio, which he presented to the Spring Annual Convention for the Ohio Association of Justice. Finally, Steve co-created and served as the senior editor for the informational website, “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” designed to help guide expectant mothers through pregnancy and birth.
These speaking engagements have given Steve the opportunity to share his unparalleled expertise with other legal professionals, healthcare providers, and the public, and he has thoroughly enjoyed contributing to these important discussions.
