Attorney comments

• "He is fair. He controls his courtroom and proceedings in such an extraordinary manner that every attorney, defendant, victim and family feels as though they have been heard regardless of the decision."
• "Judge Steiner has true empathy for people and respect for the law."
• "I have tried a number of criminal cases before Judge Steiner and have always found him to be a very good judge. Though he is known on occasion to tell you what your argument will be before you get to make your argument."
• "He is compassionate and tough."
