Called twice. 1st spoke with someone very rude. Then left an urgent voicemail and never received a response. I do not recommend.
Owner response
Mary, we reviewed our system and can see we had a senior attorney speak to you in July 2024 and according to our notes, you had a pleasant talk and he spent over 30min on the call explaining your options. We are very sorry that we were not able to help you with your injury but are confused how that interaction has resulted in this negative review. Anything we can do to resolve this issue please don't hesitate to call 312-422-0700. Feel free to ask for Anthony, which is who you spoke to last time. Thanks!
Prior to listening to their lies, I negotiated with the insurance company for 27,000 with a medical lien i negotiate fromn 23,000 about 7500. The reason I went with Shuman Legal is because they seemed to be honest and stand by there word. Well after I signed everything changed. I went through 3 different paralegals. I would call sometimes to check on my case and would have to call back sometime after a week. They first informed me that the cost would be 33% and 40% if we have to go to trial. We'll they should have just said 40% because as they stated any paper filed is considered court/trial. They also didnt inform me that the court fees and cost are not included in that 40%. After waiting another year of them trying to negotiate i settled for about double what I negotiate, which was the final offer before having to go to trial. It took them 2 months to negotiate an addition 3000 off the medical lien and for me to get my check. Finally my check was ready and I went downtown to there office to pick it up just to be disappointed. They charged me 40% plus court cost. My question was why did you charge me 40% and not 33% and why aren't the court cost included in the 40% and why did you lie and wasn't up front about it. He stated that it common practice and you might find 1 out of 100 lawyers that doesn't charge this. No excuses I wanted to hear especially if it didnt change that amount on the check. They took 21,000 plus court cost for me to only get about 4,000 more than i would have got negotiating for myself. In other words I hired them to pay there checks and office space. I wouldn't recommend. I would negotiate with the insurance company yourself or find lawyer with lower price. There's nothing that sets Shuman legal apart because as they told me its standard practice charges. So dont let them feed you that BS or ask them what sets them apart if you do decide. They help me learn a huge lesson and I would never want them representing me again. A Rip-off.
Owner response
Krystal, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are genuinely sorry to hear that you felt frustrated or disappointed at any point during your case. Our goal is always to provide clear communication, transparency, and strong results for every client.<br><br>While we cannot discuss the specifics of any matter in a public forum, we do want to address a few general points that may be helpful to others reading your review. Contingency fee agreements in personal injury cases typically provide for one rate prior to litigation and a higher rate if a lawsuit is filed and is standard throughout the personal injury industry. Once a case enters litigation, additional work, time, risk, and expense are involved, which is why that distinction exists. Court costs and case expenses are also standardly separate from attorney fees, and this is outlined in the written agreement provided at the start of representation. <br><br>We also understand how important consistent communication is. Transitions in staffing can sometimes occur, but that should never impact a client’s ability to receive timely updates, and we take that feedback seriously. We have adjusted our internal processes to reduce the risk of that in the future. <br><br>That said, we are pleased that your case ultimately resolved for approximately double the amount of the pre-representation offer, along with additional reductions to your medical lien. <br><br>We are always open to discussing any concerns directly with you and would welcome the opportunity to speak with you further to address any remaining questions. Please feel free to contact our office and ask for a member of our management team. We take your feedback very seriously and want to be sure you know that and don't have any remaining questions.

Working with Shuman Legal is an absolute pleasure. The entire team consistently sets the bar high, and I want to give special recognition to Anthony & Heather.
They are unfailingly professional, exceptionally organised and incredibly diligent in how they engage. Communication is clear, timely and thoughtful, and you always feel that nothing is being rushed or overlooked. It’s rare to work with a team that combines efficiency with such a genuinely human approach.
What really stands out is that Shuman Legal doesn’t just talk the talk about its values, it lives them. That shows in the way clients and partners are treated, in the attention to detail & in the pride they take in their work. Doing business with them is not only seamless, it’s genuinely enjoyable.
I would highly recommend Shuman Legal to anyone looking for a firm that is the epitome of principled & professional.

We finally got everything finalized for my mom,loved the resolution of the case and help form the team!
Owner response
Dear Claudia, thank you for taking the time to leave a review for Shuman Legal. We are thrilled to hear that you were satisfied with the resolution of your case and the assistance provided by our team. We appreciate your trust in us and are grateful to have been able to help your mom. Have a great day!
I want to sincerely thank Schuman Legal Team especially Mark Schuman, Heather, Hector, Eveling and many others for the outstanding work they did on my case. From start to finish, their professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail were truly impressive. They took the time to explain every step of the process, kept me informed, and fought hard to ensure I receive the compensation I deserve. Their expertise and commitment made a stressful situation much easier to handle, and I always felt confident knowing they were representing me. While clients often expect frequent updates, as well as waiting can be frustrating, just know that responsible firms avoid giving unnecessary or speculative updates when there are no immediate developments to report just to fill silence. Not all progress is visible, and they are working behind the scenes. I'm incredibly grateful for their support and would highly recommend Schuman Legal Team to anyone in need of a strong, reliable law firm.

I couldn’t express how appreciative I am of Shuman legal. They’ve managed to get me more compensation than I was initially expecting! If I am ever in need of legal representation in the future. I would not hesitate or waste time looking else where. 100% recommend Shuman legal they did not let me down!
