About Jason

Learn Jason’s areas of practice.

I'm very proud to represent victims of work injuries and auto accidents throughout Maryland.  As an attorney, my most important responsibility is to make sure my client's rights are protected.  It's vital to me that my clients are educated from the beginning so they know what to expect during their recovery period. My job is to reduce the number of surprises and always be up front with every single client I meet. I want my clients to see the whole path in front of them. It's going to be tough at times and we are here to shoulder that burden. 

I've spoken to police officers, correctional officers, firefighters, hospitality workers', laborer's, plumbers & steamfitters, bus & train operators (to name a few) throughout the State educating them about their rights when injured on the job.  I want all Maryland workers to be armed with the truth about their rights, not just what their Employer or Insurance company tells them.  

As chair of the Workers' Compensation Section of the Maryland Association for Justice, I also help educate lawyers how to navigate workers' compensation cases. I've also testified in front of the Legislature with correctional officers to expand their rights when injured on the job.

I've fought for workers for 17 years. I started out as a union organizer and learned the struggle that workers have to provide a good wage and benefits for their families. That risk is magnified when going through the uncertainty of a work injury.

Excellent,Professional, need I say more
Jason is the best workmans Comp attorney I have ever had the pleasure of using. He is not hard to reach, phone or email. He has your best interest in mind and if there is an issue ,you can expect quick results. He explains from A to Z and is easy to talk to. I have sent other to him to experience this process. He is the best and I would not go to no other.

Workers Compensation Attorney
I highly recommend Jason Shultz for representation during a worker's compensation claim. I was injured on the job and my employer/insurance company denied my claims. Jason Shultz fought for my rights and got me a settlement I thought was fair. He answered all my questions, and was always available when I needed to talk to him.

Amazing client-focused experience
While working at APG I sustained a serious shoulder injury which took me out of work for over four months. All through my claim I felt that I was well represented by Jason to the very end. Highly recommend his services.

Dependable, Capable and Experienced!!!
I am writing this review to express how well Mr. Jason Shultz has represented my interest in a work injury case. He has been representing me for about a year and a half at this point. It would have been impossible to make it to this point without his guidance and legal expertise. Jason effectively communicates through all stages of the process. He regularly makes calls to follow up after emails to ensure nothing has been missed. He has continuously called to see how to I am doing and how I am feeling. He even called after surgery to make sure my recovery was going well. Leading up to surgery was the most stressful time in my life. I felt like every doctor I had seen was not listening to me, and what was going on was being ignored. Jason helped fight the insurance company to insure I had the surgery I needed. He believed me when everyone else didn’t. He was the support that I needed in a difficult situation. There were several situations where Jason had to go between myself, the insurance company, and the doctors. No matter how frustrating the situation became, he was there to help and to insure everything was being handled correctly. In conclusion, I could not imagine a better attorney to represent you. He has been prompt in reply to emails, and phone calls. I have never once felt that I was alone in this process. He is dependable, capable and experienced.

Bad communication
This attorney/lawyer isn’t what I thought he would be. Very late on certain things like the important things. It’s always they call me back and didn’t leave a voicemail. But will call you one day before your court date to tell you bad news. I don’t get how you are a professional about your job and you don’t speak nor contact your the pope who’s cases your handling and be like we have a problem. I’m just saying he’s not what I expected basically I have a messed up body part for the rest of my life and I’ll be homeless and stuff because of something someone didn’t tell me until late and if I wanna find a job I have to go to court for that smh never in my life again I’ll go through something like this. I’ll be homeless it’s fine. I’ll just find something else in life to be happy for. Thanks for nothing me Shultz

"I endorse this lawyer. Jason doesn’t dayplay in other practice areas and claim to be a “go to” in something he barely does. Some other attorneys do, and that’s called being a generalist. That’s not Jason. Jason focuses his practice in an area where he’s become a true asset and go-to on worker’s comp. He knows the laws inside and out, is often a step ahead of other parties because of the tremendous experience he provides his clients. This is an easy endorsement for me to give. I highly recommend Jason. A great choice if you want a fighter in your corner."
