Firm Philosophy -
What sets us apart from the rest?
Many, many things. We select our cases carefully so that the caseload remains manageable and each case gets the focused attention from a skilled personal injury lawyer necessary for a successful outcome. A smaller caseload also permits us to maintain a close relationship with clients, keeping them informed and updated throughout the life of each lawsuit.
Accordingly, clients are never treated as just another "number" at our office! Our firm is committed to a team approach that involves attorney, staff, and client working together closely from start to finish. The end result is that our clients’ best interests remain first and foremost.
Our lawyers also do something that frightens most injury law firms: we give each client our personal cellular and home telephone numbers. Why? Because our attorneys are accountable to each client, day or night. Many prospective clients come to our firm when they become dissatisfied with a non-responsive lawyer. A common theme from these new clients is "I haven't heard from my lawyer in 6 months and he won't return my calls." That will never happen at our office. As your attorney, I pledge to each client that the only time I will not answer my cell phone is when attending a court proceeding or mediation.

Being located in St. Louis, Missouri does not stop our attorneys from handling personal injury cases throughout all of Missouri and Illinois.

We understand that traveling to St. Louis may be impractical or impossible for prospective clients. Here are just a few of the counties our law offices have litigated in:
Adair County,
Benton County,

Callaway County,
Camden County,
Cape Girardeau County,

Technology
Our Missouri personal injury law firm has officially moved to its new home. This new, larger space boasts some of the most advanced legal technology currently available and is custom designed to create a client-friendly environment. Each office features large plasma displays with integrated software to review evidence with clients and prepare for upcoming depositions, mediations, and jury trials. The firm's conference rooms feature ‘virtual’ presentation boards, which combine audio-visual technology and user interaction to allow for access to client information and other useful data. All of this technology is accessible to our attorneys when they are out of the office conducting depositions, trials, mediations, and on-site investigations. Our new space is a culmination of exceptional results and an unrelenting pursuit of fair compensation for our injured clients.
Accomplishments
We are very proud of the results we have achieved in a comprehensive range of practice areas, including automobile accidents and tractor-trailer collisions, premises liability, and personal injury cases. Our record of accepting referrals from other attorneys across Missouri and the United States has brought recognition to our firm's ability in handling complex and catastrophic injury cases. Because many of our victories are executed under "court seal" (confidential), it would be a violation of these agreements to openly discuss case details. However, a snapshot of just a few of our recent victories is available on our
accomplishments page. Additional case details and client testimonials are available upon request.
Missouri injury attorney Stephen Schultz and lawyers at the firm regularly participate in Legal Seminars for the areas of practice in which we specialize. We find that attendance in seminars focused on each of our practice areas is critical to obtaining substantial compensation for our clients. Missouri law is constantly evolving. A lawyer who fails to continuously update his or her knowledge of this evolution cannot be an effective advocate.
