St. Louis Car Accident Lawyers - Firm Profile

Are you looking for a local injury lawyer who has been in your shoes? Stephen Schultz is a founding partner of Schultz Legal Group, a St. Louis injury law firm dedicated to representing the victims of serious car accidents and fatal car accidents. He has experienced, first hand, what it is like to be seriously injured in a car accident and at the mercy of an unfair insurance claims adjuster. Mr. Schultz is a seasoned trial lawyer and member of numerous respected legal organizations. He has a AV-Preeminent rating (the highest possible) from Martindal Hubbell and is listed in the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers, a distinct honor held by less than 10% of lawyers in Missouri. Mr. Schultz is a Top 100 trial lawyer in Missouri according to the American Trial Lawyers Association. He is also a lifetime member of the Multi-Million Dollar and Million-Dollar Advocates Forum. This is an elite organization consisting of the top 1% of trial lawyers in the country. "These awards are flattering, but the most important thing to me is an injured client who is able to sleep easier at night knowing that I am working hard to protect his/her rights."

Our law firm philosophy is unique in many respects. The firm is selective in representing only those clients who truly require complete dedication of our expertise and resources. Each client is given the personal cellphone number of Stephen Schultz and all attorneys working on the case. Our injury attorneys are accessible 24 hours a day in the event of an emergency. A client will never be pushed off to an associate or legal assistant. Our settlements and verdicts are a result of working hand-and-hand with our clients throughout the life of each injury claim. Again, this philosophy is based upon Mr. Schultz's personal experience as an injury victim. Our clients are never left in the dark.

The St. Louis car accident injury attorneys at Schultz Legal Group are skilled in negotiation and trial techniques that achieve exceptional results. We obtain maximum compensation for our client's injury claims and only settle a case when our client is fully compensated. Many cases are settled prior to stepping into the courtroom, however, in some instances a jury must be called upon to protect our client's rights. Our results, both in and out of the courtroom, are well-known throughout St. Louis and Missouri. Insurance companies and defense lawyers respect our ability to achieve significant results in any type of serious car accident claim.

St. Louis Car Accident Injury Law Firm

Stephen Schultz and lawyers have been featured in the "Best Lawyers in St. Louis" edition of St. Louis Magazine for 4 consecutive years. It is important for any victim of a serious car accident to research several lawyers before making a decision. Our case results and client testimonials speaks for themselves. However, it is also important to make sure that your injury lawyer is exclusively dedicated to his or her area of practice. We do not handle divorces, traffic tickets, wills, etc; and for good reason. We feel lawyers who dabble in all areas of law cannot be effective in any one single practice area. Make sure your lawyer is dedicated to the practice of serious injury law.

Schultz Legal Group uses a collaborative approach to handling each claim. We utilize input from the client, witnesses, physicians, and retained experts. In doing so we have found that nothing is missed and our clients receive maximum compensation for their injury claim. You will be treated with dignity and respect, something you will NOT get from any insurance company claims adjuster. More importantly, victims who retain a lawyer on average obtain 12X the compensation they would have obtained through self-representation.

What Will I be Charged for Representation by a St. Louis Car Accident Lawyer?

You will never be charged up-front attorneys fees or be required to provide a retainer for our expenses in prosecuting your St. Louis car accident claim. Our lawyers work on contingency fee only, meaning that attorneys fees are only collected if we are successful in winning a client's case. A contingency fee agreement enables clients with minimal resources to retain the top injury trial lawyers in the city of St. Louis. Also remember that our attorneys will travel to your home, office, or recovery room to provide a free consultation and case evaluation.
