Schultz Law Group, PC

This lawyer is afraid to take malpractice cases in the state he does malpractice law. From their letter rejecting my case: "I am not able to proceed because of the current laws for medical malpractice cases in this state. This series of laws is called MICRA. The MICRA laws make it very difficult to pursue a malpractice case. Highlights of the law include a cap on damages; a limit on evidence to be used as damages and special defenses for health care providers. All of these limitations take the risk out of the case for the malpractice defendant's and their insurance carriers. This enables them to force nearly every one of these cases to trial. This makes malpractice cases economically risky and time consuming. This makes many good medical malpractice cases economically impossible to pursue." If this is the canned response you're going to give your potential clients who are seeking help, why even practice law???

I would highly recommend Schultz Law Group to everyone! After getting T-Boned and my car totaled by someone who ran a stop sign, I thought it was evident whose fault it was. The guy who hit me lied and said it was my fault, which resulted in a 30 day investigation despite having a credible witness who pulled over to offer help. The other party was under-insured, and although I had full-coverage, my insurance denied me a rental vehicle due to not having it included in my policy. Then, both insurances advised me they would not compensate me for any missed time off work! I hired Schultz Law Group, and they took care of everything. Steve was such a tremendous help and got me everything I needed covered in my settlement. I was reimbursed for my rental car and for my loss in wages, plus medical bills and pain and suffering. He kept me in the loop, always returned my calls and emails promptly, his office staff were polite and professional, he was fair, honest and easy to work with without any hassle. They completely took a load off my plate and made sure I was cared for.

Steve Schultz and his staff were a delight! He represented my sisters and me in a case involving negligent treatment of our mother, who was 94 at the time. The evidence of negligence was very clear, but several lawyers had declined to take the case because of the limited potential for damages, given her age. That was obvious to Steve, too, but he took the case on anyway, because, as he put it, you have to take one of these from time to time, it's the right thing to do. He handled the case efficiently, securing a reasonable settlement for us with the absolute minimum of hassle on our part. When Medicare, after initially telling Steve that they were not going to seek recovery of sums paid on my mother's behalf, tried to switch gears and grab a significant piece of the settlement, Steve appealed this decision and got it reversed. And he did this with no increase in the amount of his fee. Highly recommended!!

I contacted this office to try and seek help with a medical negligence claim. I am not a client of his but I will say this, his rejection letter wasn't really a 'rejection' but a well informed letter of WHY he couldn't help. I was left with information I thought -very- usable and helpful. His letter, unlike the others, was personable and left me with hope. With that alone being said, I understand his decision and thank him deeply for taking the time he did to respond in the manner of which he did.

Horrible front staff, that decided since my case wasn't good enough that it wouldn't warrant a phone call explanation to at least why it was denied. I was told that a phone call back would be received and never returned one back at all. Wasted my time taking a week to decide if my case was worth taking or not. Bad customer experience with this firm, they must have tons of cases if they are this busy to handle a 2 sec follow through of why they couldn't take on the case.
