I can honestly say that my experience with Shultz legal team was extremely positive and very professional. I just want to say from the beginning to the end the staff was very pleasant.(Thank you Kristie) I highly recommend this team of attorneys.
Mr. Shultz and his legal team are amazing! I'm aware they have other specialties, but I recommend them for any type of Worker's Comp case that you have, any day of the week! I had the pleasure of dealing with Ms. Kristie, who made sure I was set up for appointments and had knowledge of the days and times, and that all paperwork was straight. After it was all said and done, it took all of one week for a decision to come back and a few days until I could come pickup my check. Shultz legal team made this process so easy for me and I am forever appreciative. This is the team for you, hands down!
Amazing group! The entire team at Schultz Legal really considers the client when taking on a case. I wasn’t very knowledgeable in the in the realm of Workers Comp at the beginning of my case, but Jason, Lindsey(who is an absolute rockstar), and the rest of the team really worked to ensure that I could understand the process and that I was kept up to date on everything it involved. They were professional, informative, attentive, and overall a very pleasant group to work with throughout the whole process. I’m lucky to have had Jason and his team as legal representation in this matter. I would highly recommend Schultz Legal to anyone who happens to find themselves in a situation involving WC.Thank you!

I called Schultz Legal regarding a worker's comp case. Jason was extremely helpful and guided me every step of the way. His assistant, Lindsey made sure that any concerns were addressed in a timely manner. Everyone was professional and I appreciate the hard work regarding my extenuating circumstances.Thank You!
The experience with Shultz legal was ok I didn't no to much about their firm my case was transferred to him from partner Mallon. But far as what I experienced in the time dealing with them I say things moved a little slow but it worked out. Ok now I still believe for what it's worth I didn't get the fair share for my pain but I can deal with that because it has been so long in I have to keep working for my family it never was about a lawsuit in money but anyway I just want to thank Shultz and Mallon in all their assistants team members for playing their part in my life doing my difficult situations I am humbled.
They took care of everything from start to finish and I could focus on my recovery and getting back to work. They stayed in contact and updated on what the next step in the process. I would highly recommend Jason and his team.

When Do I Have A Claim To Wrongful Death In Baltimore?
In Baltimore, a wrongful death claim can be pursued when a person’s death is caused by another’s negligence or intentional act. This typically involves situations where the deceased could have filed a personal injury lawsuit had they survived. Close family members, such as a spouse, parents, or children, are generally eligible to file the claim.
The claim seeks to compensate for the emotional and financial impact of the loss, including mental anguish, loss of companionship, and financial support. It’s important for those affected to consult a legal professional to understand their rights and the specifics of their case in the context of Maryland laws.
Here are some common situations that might lead to a wrongful death claim:
Medical Malpractice: Errors in diagnosis, treatment, surgery, or medication that lead to death. Vehicle Accidents: Fatalities resulting from negligent driving in car, truck, motorcycle, or pedestrian accidents. Workplace Accidents: Deaths occurring due to unsafe work environments or practices, particularly in high-risk industries. Criminal Actions: Deaths resulting from criminal activities, including violent crimes. Product Liability: Fatal injuries caused by defective or unsafe products. Premises Liability: Deaths due to hazardous conditions on someone else’s property, such as slip and fall accidents. Nursing Home Abuse or Neglect: Fatalities arising from improper care or abuse in elder care facilities.
What Is The Average Settlement From A Wrongful Death Case in Maryland?
Factors influencing settlement amounts include the circumstances of the death, the decedent’s age and earning capacity, the impact on surviving family members, and the degree of negligence involved. Settlements can range from modest amounts to several million dollars.
In Maryland, economic damages in wrongful death cases, which cover tangible losses like lost wages and medical expenses, are not capped. However, non-economic damages, which include pain and suffering, loss of companionship, and emotional distress, are subject to caps. As of 2023, the cap for non-economic damages in personal injury cases is $935,000, and for wrongful death cases with two or more survivors, the cap is $2,262,500. These caps are adjusted annually for inflation.
