Christine Steinmetz is a part-time hotline attorney at Elder Law of Michigan. Christine has been with Elder Law of Michigan since 2011. Before working for Elder Law of Michigan, Christine used to be a plumbing assistant. People are surprised when she uses the trade’s terminology. Although she loved being a plumbing assistant, she is currently not interested in taking on any plumbing jobs in addition to her lawyering, so don’t ask! When her children were young, and they would ask her what she did for a living, she would tell them, “I go talk to the judge.”   

As an attorney, Christine is extremely detailed oriented. However, her favorite movie line is “nobody’s perfect” from the movie, Some Like it Hot. Christine’s bucket list includes a trip to Italy, as long as there is no squash in any of the Italian dishes, because she does not like it.
