LW

He and his team helped me out with my work injury and I’m glad everything is over and case solved. Thanks again.

Professionally epic loving

So I was scared to do this but realized I was doing the right thing and Dr Schaffer helped me get over being a pansy, I’m so used to just letting things happen and he showed me I deserved better, he’s kind and loving, he values his clients and understand them on not only a personal level but a profes...sional one, he helped me realize that I did nothing wrong and they make you feel like you’re wrong! Trust him! He literally saved my life and I am so grateful for his help! He is an angel in disguise but a badass angel that will hunt down and mess the bad guys up!!! Much much love for this man!

Simply the Best!

I previously hired an attorney I thought was pretty good. After a couple of non-answered calls and his secretary giving me terrible advice, I knew I had better start looking or I was going down the tubes and my case with me. Be extremely careful in picking attorney's not all Workman's Comp Attorney's... have your best interest. I previously had one always out of the office. This is why I am referring Peter Schaeffer to you. I called Mr. Schaeffer and partially described my case to him. He set up an appointment with me the following day I felt completely confident after our consultation. I traded in the( -5) star lack luster attorney for a off the chart (10) attorney. I haven't lost a day of sleep or worried one moment after my decision in choosing Attorney Schaffer. He will fight for you and send you to Dr.'s that care. Yes there are people out there that still care about your well being. ... The Ladies in the office are the best. Trust me you won't be treated like a twenty dollar bill on the sidewalk. I love Attorney Schaeffer for his honesty. He's straight forward and truthful of your case. His ethics show his integrity, and passion for his clients best interest. So if you're trying to find an attorney look no further, there may be a few but , I believe he's simply better than all the rest...

Does what he can

It’s been ten years since I used him. Did a good as good a job as he could. The laws are not fair to the workers his hands are tied as what’s he can do. But he know the doctors to use. I had three surgery’s on left shoulders 2 prior to contacting him first through my insurance and work. Both didn’t w...ork he sent me dr. Wood he did one and it’s not right still but if I would of had him on the first one I think I would of worked. The money and settlement are set per injury I think. But I was in his office when he called adjuster and they want you to go to someone that gonna do as adjuster want and Peter started going through doctors on there list and has knowledge to know good doctors. I kept medical open as I still get treatment. That alone is worth using him. When we went to Court it settled 3. Years later and got what I was supposed to get. If I got injured he would be my first call. But you won’t get rich with any work comp. case if so your gonna be a vegetable. I think he great lawyer I seen a couple bad reviews and don’t get it. He will do what can be done if that not good enough vote to change the laws and in cuff these attorneys

Excellent

Dr Schaeffer is extremely knowledgeable. He got me everything I asked for, settlement amount and retraining. At one point my Workers Comp check had not arrived. I call Dr Schaeffer’s office, the staff got right on it and by the end of the day they had the insurance company sending me a new check. Th...e staff is first rate, professional and patient. A friend recommended Dr Schafer to me and I have recommended Dr Schafer to 3 of my friends.
