About Douglas

Prior to forming Dyer, Garofalo, Mann & Schultz, Doug worked as a bodily injury claims adjuster for a large insurance company.  This unique experience has been a tremendous asset to Doug in his fight to achieve maximum cash settlements for his clients in minimum time.   Since departing from the insurance company, Doug has dedicated his entire legal career to helping injured clients when they need it the most. 

As a founding partner of Dyer, Garofalo, Mann & Schultz, Doug has been able to personally supervise the successful resolution of over 70,000 personal injury cases.  Doug has also handled over 50 complex injury cases that have each settled for amounts in excess of $1,000,000.  Under Doug’s watch, Dyer, Garofalo, Mann & Schultz evolved from a small local law office to a nationally renowned law firm of over 100 employees, 19 attorneys and 14 offices.  Despite the tremendous growth of the law firm, Doug has been able to ensure that the firm maintains an ultra-personal connection with each client that walks through the door.  Through Doug’s leadership, the firm has been able to consistently achieve client satisfaction ratings of over 97%. 

In addition to his strong passion to help injured clients, Doug also finds great satisfaction in devoting his time and efforts to the community.  Whether he’s organizing holiday toy drives for neglected and abused children, serving as an auctioneer for the Dayton Children’s Hospital fundraising event, or sponsoring breast cancer, cystic fibrosis and humane society pledge drives, Doug understands the importance of contributing to the community he calls home.

Review Douglas Mann

Great Attorney

Posted by

Doug helped me through a very difficult time in my life. He let me know what I should expect and was always helpful in answering and questions I had. I would definitely recommend his services.

Understanding, Caring, Professional, and Thorough; Thank You, Doug!

Posted by

Doug helped me through one of the most difficult years of my life. He was understanding, caring, professional, and thorough-- I felt like I was working with a friend rather than an attorney. He explained the "legal jargon" so that I was able to follow and make appropriate decisions. Beyond that, he came to my hospital bed on multiple occasions, getting to know my family members by name and interest. The settlement came quickly and was to my (great) satisfaction. Though I hope I'll avoid accidents in the future, I will certainly call him should such an occasion arise. Thank you, Doug!

Tiger-Riffic!!

Calling Doug a Tiger is an understatement! He fought hard for my claim and got me the settlement I deserved. Excellent service, and very genuine!

Ronald Burdge, Personal injury Attorney on Dec 27, 2011
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

I have known Doug Mann for probably ten years or more and I endorse this lawyer. He and his entire team do their very best to get their clients the most compensation they can in every personal injury case. He and his lawyers know the law and they know the courtroom and they are not afraid to use their knowledge to get exactly what they say they will get - maximum cash in minimum time. Best of all, Doug and his team will go into a courtroom and have a trial if they can't get a fair settlement. With fewer case actually going to trial anymore, insurance companies and their lawyers know which lawyers are bluffing and which ones aren't. Doug and his team have a great reputation for fighting their cases inside the courtroom or out.
