Steve German has been practicing law in Arizona since 1993, and is also licensed (currently inactive-status) in Ohio. Steve spent six years employed at a large law firm in Phoenix, Arizona.

In 1999, Steve started his own law firm, devoting his practice to protecting individual rights. His clients are victims of insurance companies that refuse to pay long-term disability benefits, victims (and surviving families) of rollover and tread-separation accidents, nursing home neglect, medical malpractice, and other tort-related incidents.

Beginning in 1999, Steve formed a close allegiance and working relationship with Tab Turner, an Arkansas attorney, who has twice been named national Trial Lawyer of the Year, and who is perhaps best known for his work against Ford (Rollovers) and Firestone (Tread-Separations). That close working relationship continues to this day as together they routinely litigate catastrophic loss claims against Ford, Firestone, Cooper Tire, TRW, and other large corporations that manufacture automobiles and tires.

In 2003, Danny Adelman joined Steve, and together they formed Adelman German, PLC. They have thrived together as a Firm and their practice has grown considerably.

In 2005, Michelle ("MJ") Johnson joined their practice as an up and coming Trial Lawyer, and in 2007, one of Arizona's most prominent attorneys, Robert D. Myers (Hon.), formerly the presiding judge of the Maricopa County Courts, joined Adelman German, PLC, as "Of-Counsel".

The Firm is located in the heart of Scottsdale's greenbelt area known as McCormick Ranch; just West of the Via de Ventura exit off of the 101. More can be learned about Steve, Danny and their law firm, Adelman German, PLC, at: www.AdelmanGerman.com.

Danny Adelman has focused his practice on medical malpractice and other catastrophic personal injury litigation for most of the past 20 years. He graduated first in his class (summa cum laude) at the Arizona State University College of Law, where he also served as Editor-in-Chief of the ASU Law Journal. After being admitted to practice law in 1987, Danny served as a judicial law clerk for Chief Justice Frank X. Gordon. Following his clerkship he became an associate at Lewis and Roca, a large Phoenix law firm, and then served as Associate Counsel to the Majority in the Arizona State Senate.

Since 1992, Danny has exclusively limited his practice to representing consumers and victims in cases involving medical malpractice, nursing home negligence, elder abuse, automobile accidents, motorcycle accidents, product liability, and other serious personal injury cases.

Danny believes strongly in giving back to the community. Danny recently completed a several year term as the President of the Board of Directors of the Arizona Center for Law in the Public Interest, and has served on that Board for more than a decade. Danny is a long time member of the Board of Directors of the Arizona Trial Lawyers Association. He is a member of the Amicus (Friend of the Court) Committee, to give a strong voice to injured persons and their families in the Court of Appeals and Supreme Court. Danny is also a member of many local, state, and national legal organizations.

Danny was named one of the Outstanding Lawyers in America, and has achieved an "AV - Highest Rating" from the Martindale-Hubbell attorney rating service.

Danny is married and the proud father of three wonderful children.
