Mark Schneid of Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid is an outstanding lawyer!
I had the pleasure of hiring Mark to represent me in my case. I hired Mark right before my statute of limitations was set to expire on my motor vehicle accident as I had hired another firm to represent me in the beginning, that law firm did not work out well for me forcing me to discharge them at the last minute leaving me scrambling to find a law firm to represent me. I’m extremely grateful Mark came highly recommended by a friend of mine, after my initial consultation and discussing my case with him, I knew at that moment Mark was the lawyer I wanted and needed to represent me. Mark and his team got right to work and was able to file suit before my statute of limitations was set to expire.
I was involved in a life altering motor vehicle accident several years ago leaving me with a torn rotator cuff, spinal cord injury, the onset of Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, PTSD, and anxiety related issues. I can honestly say Mark brings a compassionate approach in dealing with his clients, he truly cares and it shows! Mark was always there to answer any questions in a timely manner, he and his team kept me informed on the status of my case, and Mark always wanted to make sure I was doing alright. I witnessed Mark’s experience in the litigation and negotiation process first hand with the defendants lawyers, Mark was outstanding! He was very aggressive and fought extremely hard to maximize the compensation that I deserved.
If you are looking for excellent representation for your litigation needs, please consider Mark and his team and obtain the best and most aggressive representation as I did.
I highly recommend Mark Schneid of the Law Offices of Mathys and Schneid.

“I was struck by a car while cycling and severely, almost fatally injured. A team of excellent medical professionals performed complicated and extensive surgical and medical procedures as part of a successful effort to restore my health.
In the midst of all of the pain and effort associated with recovery, I had to shop for a personal injury attorney. I was looking for a respected professional to handle my case and ensure that I not only recovered appropriate financial damages to cover my medical costs but also compensation for pain and suffering. Mark Schneid was not the only attorney I talked to, but he was certainly the best. Upon interviewing Mark I knew immediately that he would not only represent me and look out for my best interests, but that he also cared about my recovery and the successful outcome of my case.
Mark is a passionate, bright and hardworking professional with excellent knowledge of personal injury law. His vast legal knowledge, trial experience along with medical and insurance industry knowledge quickly and efficiently guided us through the process resulting in significant risk mitigation and a positive case outcome.
His easy going style and articulate communications puts everyone at ease and provides him with a clear advantage in negotiations, while his meticulous approach and attention to detail ensures that nothing is overlooked.
During the time he represented me, Mark repeatedly proved that he was knowledgeable, experienced, honest, ethical, and committed to my cause. Most importantly, his negotiating skills made a huge difference in our financial settlement.
Everyone on the Mathys & Schneid team is a pleasure to work with, especially their paralegal Carrie King. Carrie’s research and investigative expertise was invaluable to our case. Her excellent communication and writing skills ensured that I stayed informed and up to date and her attention to detail guaranteed that nothing was inadvertently missed.
Mark and his excellent support team really came through for me. He is just the kind of counsel you want on your side… knowledgeable, personable and tenacious.

As an attorney, there are a few attorneys that I have come to rely on when it comes to referring cases to. Most attorneys, including myself, do not practice in every area of law. But, that doesn't mean we don't want anything but the best for our clients when we cannot help them with a particular matter. I have come to know Mark through a fellow attorney. At the time, I did not know any attorneys to refer my clients who had personal injury cases or were in need of an attorney to handle a medical malpractice case. When I met Mark, I knew he was the right attorney to send these cases to. I was impressed by his knowledge of the law and the practical nuances that come with years of experience. Mark is not only personable, he is also a bulldog in Court. He knows how to get results for his client. He is also highly respected in the legal community. Mark is also one of the finest trial attorneys I have seen in person. He understands how to present a case in way that people can relate to, no matter how complex the issues are. I highly recommend Mark to anyone seeking an attorney for a personal injury case or a medical malpractice. In fact, I only recommend Mark to clients in need of such services because I know the clients will be in great hands. Mark and his office staff are diligent, responsive to client inquiries and absolute magicians in Court.

I started my own business almost a year ago and reached out to Edward for legal counsel. I have utilized his services on four occasions - primarily for copyright and trademark needs. I have found him to be thorough, responsive, and someone I can depend on. He takes the time to explain what the alternatives are as well as what the next steps, if any, will be. While I don't have extensive experience in working with legal counsel, his rates were what I expected.
I will work with Edward in the future and would recommend him to others.

Edward as he likes to be called, was the lead attorney for my patent application in 2014. We had two refusals from the patent office due to what seemed to me to be unfair prior art allegations. In each case, Edward came up with a strategy to refute the findings. In the end I was able to secure a patent for the product which included the next advancement in the technology which will be added to the current product. So it will protect my IP in the long run. I was very please with his efforts and would recommend him to others for patent issues as well.

What a Medical Malpractice Lawyer Can Do for You
A medical malpractice lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been harmed due to the negligence or misconduct of healthcare professionals, such as doctors, nurses, or hospitals. These lawyers assist in cases where a healthcare provider deviates from the accepted standard of care, resulting in injury or death. Medical malpractice cases can involve misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication mistakes, birth injuries, and other forms of medical negligence.
If you or a loved one has suffered harm due to improper medical treatment, a medical malpractice lawyer can help you understand your legal options, file a lawsuit, and pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, lost wages, and other damages.

Hiring a medical malpractice lawyer is essential if you’ve been seriously injured due to the negligence of a healthcare provider or institution. Situations where you should seek legal representation include:
- Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis: If a doctor fails to diagnose or delays diagnosing a medical condition, leading to harm or progression of the illness.
- Surgical errors: Harm resulting from surgical mistakes such as operating on the wrong site, leaving instruments inside the body, or performing unnecessary procedures.
- Medication errors: Injuries caused by prescribing the wrong medication or dosage, or mistakes made by pharmacists in dispensing drugs.
- Birth injuries: Injuries to a newborn due to medical negligence during labor and delivery, such as failing to perform a timely C-section or improper use of delivery instruments.

- Inadequate follow-up or aftercare: Suffering due to lack of proper monitoring or care after a medical procedure, leading to complications.
- Hospital or nursing home negligence: Harm caused by the negligence of hospital staff, nurses, or administrators who failed to provide adequate care.
Medical malpractice cases are complex, and hiring a lawyer early can help ensure your rights are protected and your case is handled effectively.

A medical malpractice lawyer provides various legal services to help injured patients hold negligent healthcare providers accountable. Their responsibilities include:
- Evaluating your case: Reviewing medical records and consulting with experts to determine if you have a viable claim based on the standard of care and harm suffered.
- Filing a lawsuit: Initiating legal action by filing a complaint against the responsible parties in the appropriate court.
- Gathering evidence: Collecting medical records, expert testimonies, and other relevant evidence to build a strong case.
- Negotiating with insurance companies: Working to secure a fair settlement that compensates you for your injuries without the need for a trial.
- Litigating in court: Representing you during trial proceedings if a settlement cannot be reached, presenting evidence and arguing your case.
- Calculating damages: Assessing the full extent of your losses, including medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, and future care needs.
- Handling expert testimony: Coordinating with medical experts who can testify on how the standard of care was breached and how it led to your injuries.
How Are Medical Malpractice Lawyers Paid?
Most medical malpractice lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, which means they only get paid if they recover compensation for you. Key aspects of this payment structure include:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer's fee is typically between 25% and 40% of the settlement or award.
- No upfront costs: You do not pay any legal fees unless the lawyer successfully recovers compensation on your behalf.
- Case expenses: Costs for expert witnesses, medical record retrieval, and court fees may be deducted from your settlement or award in addition to the lawyer's fee.
Always discuss the fee arrangement during your initial consultation to understand your financial obligations.

Ensure you receive a clear explanation of all potential fees and expenses before proceeding with your case.
Top Questions to Ask a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Before hiring a medical malpractice lawyer, consider asking the following questions:
-
What experience do you have with medical malpractice cases like mine?

How do you charge for your services?
Understand the contingency fee percentage and any additional costs you may incur. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Seek an honest assessment of your case's strengths and potential challenges. -
How long will the process take?
Get an estimate of the timeline for settling or taking the case to trial. -
Will you handle my case personally?
Ensure you know who will be managing your case and their level of involvement. -
Have you worked with expert witnesses?
Verify the lawyer's experience in collaborating with medical experts essential for your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Medical Malpractice Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable lawyer, take the following steps:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association for their license and any disciplinary actions.
- Review their experience: Look for specialization in medical malpractice and a history of successful cases.
- Read client reviews: Consult platforms like Avvo or Martindale-Hubbell for testimonials and ratings.
- Ask for references: Request contact information of previous clients willing to discuss their experience.
- Check professional affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Association for Justice (AAJ) indicates a commitment to the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To maximize the effectiveness of your initial meeting, bring the following:
- Medical records: All documents related to your treatment and injury.
- Evidence of harm: Photos, medical bills, and records of lost wages.
- Communication records: Any correspondence with healthcare providers or institutions.
- List of healthcare providers: Names and contact information of all involved medical personnel.
- Questions for the lawyer: A prepared list to address all your concerns.
- Timeline of events: A detailed chronology of your medical care and the issues encountered.
Being well-prepared helps the lawyer assess your case accurately and advise you on the best course of action.
