Thankful for all Mark did!

I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney, Mark and his staff were always available to answer my questions. You won't find a more kind, knowledgeable, professional, honest person (let alone a lawyer) anywhere. He helped me get medical care and weekly income benefits. He also got my surgery approved.... He fought for me and got me the settlement and future medical care that I needed. I highly recommend Mark Skibiel.

Workers Comp Battle

Mark began working on my case Jan. 2014 and at the time I was not able to completely communicate or know what was going on. Mark stepped in and has been on the job since. I've had tons of questions throughout the process, Mark and his staff have always been available and knowledgeable to answer all... of my questions. Due to his knowledge of the law and communication with my case managers I was able to get all the care that my doctors recommended with out any interruptions to my care OR my weekly wages. It is a very stressful process of being hurt and working with WC but Mark has made this process non stressful and kept me informed throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain things to me that I could understand the process. It was comforting to know that I had an attorney who was working hard and diligently on my case, it definitely took away one less thing to worry about. I am so grateful and thankful for Mark and his team, he has definitely been a God's send! His hard work equal to a great settlement which has helped my family and I move on. Eternally grateful!

Great Lawyer

After my injury at work Mark and Lucy talked me step by step through my case. They were very helpful. He tried his best to explain every aspect of the case as it was happening and after it was over. Both he and Lucy always seemed to be authentically concerned with my well-being and how I was doing. T...hey are genuinely good people. I would highly recommend him and his practice to anyone who was injured, because he aided me enormously and helped me receive much more money than I ever expected.

W/Comp case with Mark A. Skibiel attny.

Although my case was long, (10 years), Mark made sure I was protected and had my well being and needs at the front of his handling of my case. Mark is very knowledgeable and went out of his way to educate me which also made communication much easier. He also made sure I understood each and every step... before the next one came which made things much easier for me as well while trying to navigate through the legal maze and legal-eze of W/C laws. Early on Mark was able to have my benefits restored even after my return to work, the benefits terminating and then my being "let-go". Being with a company for 10 years and having what I thought was a decent relationship and being terminated was devastating on several levels. Mark's getting my benefits reinstated was a G-dsend. He was also able to get me to the best Dr.'s around to handle my medical needs. After that, I simply trusted Mark 100% and knew that he would do what was needed and right for me. Mark and his staff made me feel as if I was his only client, all the while knowing that I was not. At times when I would reach my lowest lows, Mark was there with a professional and understanding ear. I never felt as if I was forgotten or that another case was taking focus away from mine. I am willing to bet that Mark and his staff treat all of his clients with the same respect, compassion and professionalism that he treated me with. All of the advice and recommendations I received from Mark was dead on point. There is no one else I would consider recommending to anyone should they fall prey to any personal injury or on the job injury other than Mark Skibiel. I do not know where I would be today were it not for Mark and his staff taking the reigns and handling every aspect of my case. I was and am very fortunate to have found Mark A. Skibiel P.C. and I am very pleased with the outcome of my W/C claim.

Thankful

I found Mark after looking online and read a few reviews. After 15 minutes in his office and him giving my case a cursory review, he put myself and my wife at ease with, HIS, confidence, knowledge and willingness to immediately begin getting me the medical attention I needed. He was direct and to t...he point. He didn't beat around the bush when describing what I can expect. He continually kept me informed of our "battles" and when it would be necessary to fight and how. He was very realistic and kept Georgia Worker's Compensation law in the forefront of our case. His approach made me feel that he took a personal interest in my health and my receiving proper care. Mark and his staff went that extra mile for my family, with their compassion and willingness to work for me and I will be forever thankful.
