Schultz & Myers Personal Injury Law Firm Overview
With offices throughout Missouri, Illinois, and Arkansas, Schultz & Myers, LLC has quickly gained a reputation as one of the Midwest's most dynamic and aggressive Plaintiff Personal Injury Law Firms. The law firm's practice is limited solely to helping injured individuals fight the insurance companies for a fair recovery. This focus is based on the founding partners' belief that the only way to completely master one area of law is focus solely on that area. Thus, 100% of the firm's time is spent representing injured individuals. The Insurance Companies are represented by highly capable lawyers who specialize in fighting injury claims - you should have the same firepower on your side.
The Schultz & Myers Philosophy - A Game Changer
Because Personal Injury Law is all we handle, we have developed a laser focus on our role in representing you. At Schultz & Myers, our Personal Injury Lawyers have two jobs. The first is to make sure you are getting all the adequate medical treatment with the right doctors. We spend a lot of time developing relationships with doctors all across the state to help serve our clients. Thus, we make sure our clients get the necessary treatment, even if you do not have health insurance. One of the biggest factors an insurance company will look at is how much time has elapsed in between your injury and your medical treatment. Thus, if you are delaying your medical treatment simply because you do not have health insurance, you will find that you will be victimized twice when it comes to receiving the settlement offer from the insurance company. This is why it is so critical to get on the right treatment track immediately and why we are very active in working for our client in that regard.
Our second job is simply to put as much money in your pocket as we can. Insurance companies know the attorneys that are going to properly develop a case and who are not afraid to take the case to trial. They also know the attorneys who are not going to do that. If you choose one of those lawyers, the insurance company will never pay you full value for your case. Thus, our reputation with the insurance companies and with the public is very important to us. We have always maintained a reputation for working tirelessly for our clients and for sparing no expense to prepare the case for trial. It is that tenacity which has allowed us to recover millions on behalf of our clients. However, to consistently maintain these results, we vigilantly monitor how efficiently our time is being spent. Should you choose our firm to represent you, we guarantee that we will not be wasting time working on friviolous cases nor are we going to be a "settlement mill" taking in every case that calls and then settling it as quickly as possible even if it is for far less than what it is worth.
Community Support & Charity Work
To be successful in any position of life, you have to have a driving passion. While we love the law and helping injured individuals obtain justice from the insurance companies, our real passion is to be a force for good in our community. The blessings that have been bestowed upon us in the form of our law firm serves as the backbone for our community involvement and charitable giving. We urge you to help support some of the charities close to our heart:
Our goal as dedicated personal injury lawyers is to create a safer community for our families. But we don't stop there. Stephen Schultz is a supporter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Foundation for Children with Cancer, St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, and other charitable organizations. Giving back to our community, both financially and in service, is an integral part of our firm philosophy.
- Smile Train - Cleft Palates are a major problem in developing countries for millions of children. Most cannot eat or speak properly, they aren't allowed to attend school, and often face difficult lives filled with shame and isolation, pain and heartache. Their clefts usually go untreated because they are poor - too poor to pay for a simple surgery that has been around for decades. For as little as $250, you can help give a child a second chance at life.
- Ronald McDonald House - For seriously ill children, treatment can last weeks or months, and often takes place at specialty hospitals far from home. However, research shows that children heal faster with family present. Ronald McDonald Houses let whole families stay together, close to the hospital, for as little as $5 a day.
- Locks of Love - Locks of Love uses real, donated hair to make high-quality hairpieces for children who have suffered hair loss due to medical conditions. Their mission is to return a sense of self-confidence and normalcy to these children. The hairpieces are provided free of charge or on a sliding scale, depending on the financial need of the recipient.
